Refund of overpaid rent for council tenants.
If you have overpaid your council housing rent and have a credit on your rent statement, you can request that this is refunded to you by cheque.
Before we can provide the refund by cheque, your Tenancy Officer will need to carry out various checks including any pending benefits adjustments.
We will not issue cheques for refunds under £10. You should receive a refund within 7 to 10 days.
