1. I use TIPP just because its easy. Using the bank to pay them just adds another potential point for confusion or error. At the end of the day, it should still amount to the same tax payments, so why use a middleman?
2. You have to request a re-assessment during the annual review period, once initial assessments are mailed out. This time has passed for this year, so keep an eye out for it next year. It also cost $40 IIRC to get them to review it (win or lose).
