Thanks for the reply ed, yeah I'm going to try and come up with it somehow. I will be explaining the situation to the council first thing on Monday and see what they say anyhow.

Hi all first off I love the site! Any views on my situation would be much appreciated.
So long story short, over the passed week or so I received a letter from a debt collectors claiming I owe them just over £200 as they are collecting council tax on behalf of the council.
However I had a letter from the council come through today stating that I can't pay by installments any more and have petitioned for a summary warrant against me etc.
It then says to avoid my account being passed to the collectors to contact them (number is forever busy).
The problem being though the debt collecters letter is dated well before the council letter threatening to pass it on.
How can this be the case? As far as I can tell I am about to be charged twice and seeing as I am on jobseekers allowance I will be financially crippled due to this.
