A worked Band B scenario
Using a Band D charge of £2,392, Band B is 7/9 of that reference amount: £1,860 for the year. Ten instalments would be about £186, while twelve instalments spread the same bill to about £155. A 25% single-person discount would reduce this illustration to £1,395.
Your actual bill depends on the billing authority, local precepts, discounts and the property valuation band. England, Scotland and Wales use separate band structures; Northern Ireland uses domestic rates. Confirm the postcode and current bill with the council rather than treating this page as a quote.
