An elderly couple were shocked to receive a 13-year-old council tax bill - for 2p.
Peggy and William Everson, from Kettering, Northamptonshire, who moved from nearby Wellingborough 13 years ago, got the bill correcting the amount they owed Wellingborough Council for the tax year of 1994/95.
Mrs Everson, 73, tried to pay the bill but the council has apologised, saying it will not be taking the matter further.
