Have your say on the future of local councils in Surrey

Take part in a landmark Government consultation on proposals to replace Surrey's current councils with up to three larger authorities. We support a three unitary approach - Find out more and read our consultation question guide.

Join us for a special online engagement session hosted by the Leaders of Guildford and Waverley Borough Councils on Thursday 3 July from 7pm to 8pm via Microsoft Teams. We'll explain what Local Government Reorganisation is, outline the different options being considered, and show you how to get involved. Sign up for the session (opens new window).

Tell us about an issue with your council tax bill

What happens next?

We will look at the decision again to see if we can change it. We'll write to tell you the outcome.​

If you disagree with our decision​

You can appeal to the Valuation Tribunal Service if:

  • you still disagree with our decision after a review, or
  • you do not hear from us within two months

You'll need to fill in a Valuation Tribunal Service appeal form (opens new window).

You must keep on paying your council tax as shown on your bill while your appeal is being considered.​

If you win your appeal and have overpaid any council tax, we'll refund you.​

Appeals to the Valuation Office Agency (opens new window) or Valuation Tribunal Service (opens new window) are free. They cannot award costs against you if you lose.​

You must pay your own costs attending the hearing. You'll have to pay if you ask an agent to represent you.
