£239.00 pm 
Band D £125 pm now. Up by 4.7%. Makes me laugh that they are raising it yet charging us for removing garden waste now and also cutting local amenities and facilities .
Says it all - charge ya more, give ya less

That's interesting. Because of the way the bandings were applied nationally, I always believed that there were practically no Band E and above houses in the North until I got my bill through. For the same reason, I wouldn't have thought there were any Band A's in Essex until you posted that.......
My brother lives in Wales, recently the local authorities have been re-banding on new valuations. As a result his property has now been 'promoted' to the next band and the charge has risen. This seems illogical to me as he uses no more resource than he did previously.
How can a charge for local amenities be based on the value of a property rather than the actual demand by the occupant(s) on the local facilities?
