Benefit Fraud

Fraud Free Hotline 0800 7317039

We are committed to delivering Housing and Council Tax Benefit swiftly and correctly.

We also ensure that people in Eastbourne receive the benefits they are entitled to.

Sometimes people attempt to obtain benefits to which they are not entitled with dishonest intention.

Where this is the case we look at the circumstances of the individual and the extent of the fraud. Based on this we consider prosecution.

We receive information about possible benefit fraud from members of the public for which we are very grateful. If you contact us your identity will be kept strictly confidential and you do not have to give your name.

Contact us to report fraud or go to our "How to Report a Fraud" page.
