All the areas set to get their council tax rebate paid within DAYS
THOUSANDS of households will get the £150 council tax rebate paid into their bank account within days.
The payments will be welcome relief as the nation continues to face the cost of living crisis.
Chancellor Rishi Sunak announced the support in February to help people cope with soaring inflation.
If your property falls within the council tax band of A to D, you are entitled to a one-off cash payment from the government which is being handed out by your local authority.
The £150 does not need to be repaid, but the exact date you will be paid varies on your area and how you pay your council tax bill.
People who already have direct debits set up to pay bills are likely to get their payment sooner.
