to my way of thinking it was relevant as accessing technology can oftenmean we
have to have funds to pay the silly pirces we have to for the stuff.

Is this list specifically technology related then? if so, do you know where
we might post questions such as these as they do in fact relate to access - a
person's ability to live an independent life. Our friend was very concerned and
so i asked on here. Thank you all once again for your responses which I'll pass
on to our friend.
I'm sorry if i broke the rules of the list.
Take care

People, do you not think this has been exhausted yet? It's not relevant to
the list so can we please stop it now!

This is a means tested benefit. If your friend gets housing
benefit or income support they will get help with council tax. If not in
receipt of either as I'm not you pay the full amount. But if the accommodation
is fitted for disabled living you drop a band in the calculation. My heating
loss means I have specially loud door and phone bells so I qualify for that.

Hi list,
A friend asked if i would send a message to this list regarding
a query about their council tax.
They are Blind too and receive Incapacity Benefit and
Disability Living Allowance. Their local Council have not yet made a descision
about whether they are entitled to Council Tax benefit but the Council have
issued a bill for payment. They're unemployed at the moment, so do people who
are unemployed and on benefits generally pay council tax?
Any help you can provide would be very much appreciated.
Thank you
Take care
James, Lyn, Nash and Twinny
