Customer Charters

The Revenues and Housing Benefit Teams have reviewed their counter and office charters.

The changes took place on 2 January 2008 and the teams would welcome any comments you would like to make on these, before this time.

Key changes include:
a change of counter opening times - to a new time of 9am to 5pm, but with the opportunity to make an appointment at any time during the day between 8am and 6pm.

  • a drop off service for documents, to save customers queuing
  • respecting people’s privacy by asking other customers to wait behind a green line
  • reducing the time we take to deal with moves and discounts from 10 days to seven
  • promoting ways you can view and pay your bills online
  • not tolerating any form of abuse
  • supporting local charities through ‘dress down’ days
