It's no secret that Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu was met with some backlash after her Celebrity Big Brother appearance but as the 29 year old 'reflects' on her time in the house, she's reportedly looking towards her next career move. ”Ekin-Su is TV gold, but it’ll be interesting to see what direction she goes in next," a source said. "Once Traitors airs, the feeling is she will move into documentaries or presenting, with industry peers telling her she could follow in the footsteps of Olivia Attwood and Zara McDermott." Ekin-Su first rose to fame in 2022 after starring on the hit ITV dating show Love Island and, since then, has appeared on Dancing on Ice and, of course, Celebrity Big Brother.
Billpayers urged to check if they're overpaying council tax ahead of April increase
18.03.2024 - 16:25 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Council tax across the country is set to rise significantly in just a couple of weeks.
The majority of councils will increase bills by 4.99 per cent in April - the maximum amount permitted by the government without a local referendum. According to the County Councils Network (CCN), 128 out of 136 councils (94 per cent) will go ahead with this increase.
It means the average house in Band D will pay more than £103 a year on average on council tax alone. However, there may be ways to dodge the increase by simply checking if you're paying too much.

One easy way of doing this is seeing if you're in a higher band than your neighbours who live in similar properties. What makes this trick even easier is that you can simply check the ban by looking up the property on gov.uk.
It's important to note that the property you're comparing your own to must be of a very similar size and value. If you're neighbour happens to be in a lower band than you, you could make a council tax reclaim.
However, be wary of doing this as the issue might not be that you're overpaying, but that your neighbour is underpaying and thus will be hit with a higher council tax bill. Money Saving Expert (MSE) advises doing a valuation check to see what your property's value was in 1991 - this is when council tax bands were laid out.
Once you find out the value of your own home, you can then see what a house near you was sold for recently and then convert it to 1991 price rates. An easy tool to use for this is Nationwide's house price calculator by entering the sale date of the property and then 1991 and Q2.
If you have done both tests and are 100 per cent sure you're in
