Council tax rebates worth £150 are starting to be paid into bank accounts up and down the country from this month.
But whether you have already received the payment or not is down to a postcode lottery.
Some households face waiting months for the £150 to land in their account, with councils officially having until September 30 to issue the money.
The Mirror has checked in with dozens of local authorities and has highlighted ten places where the rebate hasn’t yet been processed.
Those who pay their council tax by Direct Debit will receive the payments first, as councils have their details on the system already.
Martyn James of consumer rights website Resolver said: “The current advice is to go on to your local council website where there should be some updates.
“I’ve checked quite a few and there’s a distinct lack of information with some so don’t worry if the site hasn’t updated yet.
“Many councils are asking people not to contact them to ask about the rebate.
“But you can contact your council for help and support with financial difficulties if you are worried about paying the tax.”
