If you think your council tax band is too high, you can challenge it. The first step is to contact your local council and ask for a council tax valuation list. This will show how your property compares to others in the area. If you think your property should be in a lower band, you can submit an application to the council. They will then reassess your property and let you know if your council tax band has been changed. If you're still not happy with the result, you can appeal to the Valuation Tribunal. Remember, it's always worth checking your council tax band before you Challenge it, as there may be a charge for changing it. But if you do end up paying too much council tax, you should be able to get a refund.
