Poll: Have you paid the household charge?

New figures show that 61 per cent of households have now paid the charge. Have you?

NEW FIGURES SHOW that 61 per cent of households have now paid the household charge.

More than €100 million has now been collected from homeowners by the Local Government Management Authority which has been sending out a second round of warning letters to people who have not paid.  Speaking about the figures this morning, the head of the LGMA said that homeowners who fail to pay the household charge will have legal action taken against them.

Previous polls here on TheJournal.ie found a  split between the number of people who say they will pay it and the number who say they have no plans to pay the charge.

So we’re asking: Have you paid the household charge?


Poll Results:

No, and I won't (1127)
I am not liable for it (1117)
No, but I will (916)
Yes (809)
