Derby residents could win up to £1000 off next year’s Council Tax bill if they sign up for electronic billing.
Electronic billing is another way to receive your Council Tax bill. Instead of getting a paper bill in the post, you can view your bill online.
Switching to e-billing online is easy to do and Council Tax payers who are registered for e-billing by 14 February 2025 will be entered in to a prize draw
The first prize is up to £1000 off, with four runner-up prizes of up to £500 off for the 2025/26 Council Tax bill year.
Available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, the secure online system means you can access your Council Tax account information at any time, any place.
Council Tax payers need first to register for myAccount. As soon as this account is activated, you can select the electronic billing option.
Anyone who has already registered for e-billing will be automatically included in the prize draw.
With myAccount, you can also:
- check your balance
- set up or change a Direct Debit
- make a payment arrangement
- apply for an exemption or discount
- update your contact details
Councillor Hardyal Dhindsa, Cabinet Member for Digital and Organisational Transformation, said:
We continually strive to expand our online offering to make interacting with the Council faster, more convenient, and more secure.
Registering for myAccount and e-billing is free and easy and means residents can check their Council Tax bills at any time. By not receiving paper bills, they also help to keep costs down and minimise our impact on the environment.
Every sign-up helps. Postage costs are so high that a relatively small number will cover the cost of the prize draw. Every additional sign-up will directly benefit the Council, helping us to maintain essential services.
I would encourage all Council Tax payers who aren’t already registered for e-billing to do so now and be in with a chance to win money off their next Council Tax bill.
