@SeonaidJones You can contact the Council Tax team using the online form on this page, using the "Ask us a question" link on the right hand side sheffield.gov.uk/council-tax/pa…

@SheffCouncil I don’t have my reference code to pay it online, is there any other way to access this?

@SheffCouncil been trying to get in touch with yourselves regarding our council tax bill and the phone lines are constantly busy! How I can I contact you?

@Blade94Razor @runforall Hello, thank you for raising this issue. We have flagged it with the council tax service. Please contact us with more details so our service can look into this. Find our contact information on our website sheffield.gov.uk/your-city-coun…

#SheffieldCityCouncil needs to be investigated. How does a #CouncilTax letter, with Date of Issue of April 22nd, with a deadline to pay of May 6th, arrive in the post on May 7th? Why has this taken 2 weeks to arrive from the Date of Issue? What postal service offers a 2 week delivery time? The only viable conclusion is that you're holding these letters until it arrives beyond this date, so that you can justify charging them for the entire year. It's disgusting and predatory, and causes serious harm to the average person's finances. The extremely aggressive means by which you achieve this is abhorrent. @GOVUK @Keir_Starmer @SheffieldStar @BBCSheffield @syptweet

Good luck to everyone taking part in @runforall's Sheffield Half Marathon this Sunday, March 23! Find key event information including route and road closures in our bulletin here content.govdelivery.com/accounts/UKSHE…

@ROBJOHNSON68830 Hi, there are no local elections in Sheffield this year. We use an election by thirds system. This means a third of councillors are elected every year over four years. There are no elections in the fourth year - known as a 'fallow year'. Our next local elections will be 2026.

Why haven’t I received a polling card @SheffCouncil !?! Is that the plan. Don’t send them out to manipulate the outcome ?
