Authentication
To view up to date account balance information, you will need to verify who you are and allow your MyStoke account details to be shared with the Council Tax system.
Select the option to Upgrade your account, then confirm your name, account number and answer a security question. Once you have authenticated your account, you can view up to date account information, check balance and payments and update contact details. The information you provide us need to match what we have on our records exactly, such as the spelling of your name.
Don't know your account number?
Many of our online services require a Council Tax account number. You can usually find this on any correspondence, bills or statements that we've sent to you.
If you are unable to find your account number, complete this form and your account number will be e-mailed to you within 2 working days.
Please note, if you change your address in your MyStoke account you will also need to change it on Council Tax Online.
