No way! You'll have to pay like the rest of us.

no mate, psw still have visa restrictions such as "No public recourse funds:" and cant work s a practice doctor. so u still dont count as an adult.

As already said, you are liable to pay Council Tax.

However if you are the only "counting adult" in the place ....... for example all the others are students, then you are entitled to claim the 25% single occupancy discount, And claiming that is OK, it does not count as claiming Public Funds.
