Not something I would brag about Hiboz as non payers like yourself surely led to us honest citizens having to pay more

Yep, we paid every one even when we were totally skint. We applied for a reduction since we only had one wage and a mortgage at about 15% and two small children - and they very, very kindly gave us Â£1.50 a month off. We were so grateful.
We've got photos of the kids at the march against the Poll Tax - obviously wearing sack cloth and bare feet........Thanks Hiboz, you make me feel much better

My husband pays our poll tax the minute the bill comes through the door!!
He tends to do that with all bills, doesn't like the idea of owing anyone money!!! Besides, we can breathe a bit easier knowing that they're all paid!

No point, they never chase you up. Or send them a cheque for 0.00 and ask for a full receipt. They usually send you thanking you for paying it all.
