Long story short, it seems I was overpaid council tax benefit when living under my old local authority (I've since moved to a different council authority)
From what I can gather the council tax benefit overpayment has been added to my council tax bill and would be treated as council tax arrears.
They've written to me and I've had 4 different figures quoted with regards to how much I'm meant to owe. Without being too specific it ranges from £200 to £450.
Can anyone tell me if it is dealt with in the same way as council tax arrears, and so court action etc?
My now ex and I split in Sep so I don't have the means to pay it in full, and would struggle paying more than a few pounds every month.
If I was taken to court or they pass this onto bailiffs, can they seize my car to pay the debt off?
