Some council tax direct debits taken a day early

Due to an administrative error, direct debit payments for both council tax and business rates set up for 15th of the month have been taken from bank accounts a day early this month (14 March 2024).

We apologise to residents and businesses affected by this error for any inconvenience caused.

We understand that some people may incur bank charges (eg overdraft fees) or may experience financial difficulties because the payment has been taken a day early. If you have been impacted please contact us via HDCfinance@harborough.gov.uk or by calling 01858 828282. The council will reimburse bank charges that are a direct result of this error where proof is provided.
