Former tenants’ rent arrears
If you are no longer a Council Tenant and have left one of our
properties owing rent, it is important that you contact us
immediately to arrange to pay your arrears.
If you fail to do this, Thanet District Council can
refuse to re-house you in the future.
If you do not respond to us when we try to make contact
with you, we may pass your arrears to a Debt Collection Agency to
recover for us.
We may also take court action against you, for example by
applying for a County Court Judgement (CCJ). This will affect your
credit rating and could stop you getting credit.
