Local Authorities collect rent and rates from those affected and the abolition of physical Council Offices means that payments are expected by Direct Debit ~

So not everyone has a Bank account and some cannot pay

I think when someone misses one monthly payment this triggers a full YEARS payment of LA rates ~ and Bailiffs with High Court powers to collect

Debts have increased massively I believe

Frankly the abolition of Council rates office was an error in my view where debtors did their best even when hard up

Summat up here
