Statement Upheld Housing benefit and council tax benefit 24-Jun-2025
Summary: Miss B complained that the Council had failed to reimburse her for the cost of all her utility bills in her temporary accommodation and was trying to recover housing benefit debts from her. We have not investigated the utility payments any further because Ms B was aware of the arrangement by March 2022 and could have complained about it at that point. We have not investigated the housing benefit issues because she was aware of some of the debts in 2023 and had a right of appeal against them. However the Council failed to deal with her complaint properly causing her to complain to us. The Council has agreed to pay her £100 and improve its complaint-handling procedures for the future.
