  1. You are here: Get advice on Council rent arrears
  2. Recovery action

If you are having difficulty paying your rent, or have already missed a payment, please contact us straight away.

The sooner you get in touch, the more likely it is that we can make an arrangement and avoid any further recovery action.

Rent payments are a 'priority debt' and should be paid before most other debts. More advice about priority and non-priority debts can be found on our Get help with money problems page.
