Glasgow Council

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

Glasgow City Council
City Chambers
Glasgow
G2 1DU

	Phone Number
Housing benefit and council tax benefit	0845 600 8040
Council Tax	0845 600 8040
General enquiries	0141 287 2000

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.
