One can only imagine that the finance department got their act together and collected money from people who have done everything they've been asked to do to make collection simple, then maybe, just maybe there wouldn't be 23 people waiting on the telephone to sort out a problem
That's not a question - it's a rant.

You perhaps would have got answers from your own councilor, rather than expect a Rishton councilor to make enquiries for you.

You should have added at least one ? somewhere.
