The fact that it rolled on for five months surely suggests the Council's case was less than convincing...

Please don't tell me you fell for the whole "If we drag it out and fob him off he'll get bored and give in" routine?

Tbh I got bored with it, had some amusing exchanges with them mind.

But yes, guilty.

I dragged one on for a year, I think they gave up in the end as they randomly let me know it had been dropped.

Councils are odd.

Meh! Finally gave up (after 5 months of wrangling) & coughed the £35.

Miserable gits, at least I fought it!

What you caved in and paid? Well thats just depressing.

I know.

Bigger fish to fry tbh.

Should have drove your Truck through the Council HQ.

Come on then, enlighten us with said "amusing exchanges".

Why was it in dispute for 5 months.. what was their argument?

Well then you didn't fight it did you?

You gave up when you were most of the way there. Don't you think that the council drag this on in the hope you end up giving in?

Good grief.

My tenancy is up on Sept 1. My landlady is an OAP. She'd worry herself silly if threatening letters were coming to the house I currently rent. - Old folk are like that.....

If £35 stops the crap thats been flowing two & fro from me & Thurrock council, fair enough.

I tried, but gave up as I cba with notifying thurrock of my change of address etc.

I still think you've made a massive mistake. You're just perpetuating the retarded council system that brings misery to you and others for no reason.

Can I send you a letter stating that you must pay me £30 and then fob you off and muck you around until you pay it?
