Dudley Council

If you have a council tax or benefit enquiry, you’ll need to contact Dudley Council on one of the helpline numbers listed below.

Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council
Council House
Priory Road
DY1 1HF

  Phone Number
Housing benefit and council tax benefit 0300 555 8100
Council Tax 0300 555 8000
General enquiries 0300 555 2345

If you’re experiencing financial difficulties, you must make sure you continue to manage your priority payments such as Council Tax, rent/mortgage and utilities, even if it means you cannot meet your monthly unsecured credit commitments.

That’s because the consequences of not managing your priority payments are much more severe. You should always contact your local council if you are struggling as you may be entitled to help paying your Council Tax.
