No, they can't do this.
Are you in a position to pay anything back to the council? If so, I would start paying by internet banking/telephone banking to them, making sure you quote the correct reference number.
Can you post the exact wording of the note, leaving out identifying features?
Also, ensure you leave doors/windows locked at all times so that they can't gain legal entry through an open door or window.
The council remain responsible for the conduct of the bailiffs and if they act outside of the law, you may have a case to get the council to take the debt back in-house.

The CAN take back debts from the bailiff and there are many cases where they have done so. If the pen-pushers and jobsworths at the council are unreasonable, don't give up. Enlist the help of your local councillor. Also, there's nothing to stop you paying the council whatever they say. They cannot legally refuse payment. But never pay them by direct debit, which gives them the power to change the amount payable. If you can't pay by credit card, pay them by standing order, which it is impossible for them to change without your permission. |

Petrified | Right. A bailiff only makes a set amount of visits b4 he returns the case back to the council. Are you on any benefits like i.support ? etc ? | |
