Not offended somethings get lost in translation. I probably sounded " oh woe is me!" I'm just not up to speed and quite dumb on this issue

Thank you This will be the Huddersfield magistrates Court.

I am more than happy to act on advice and grateful for any viable options suggested. The time frame is relevant, the bailiffs could come knocking any day now so obviously I need to act quickly. I was merely saying that it may not be quick enough. I have never had to deal with these hounds before so I have no idea when they will come or what stunts they will try to pull or even what they really can do...legally

I called the Fleetwood Magistrates court to file a statutory Declaration and was told that I have to go to the court local to me in Yorkshire. This sounds like its going to take more time than I have. How long before they send the bailiff knocking on my door to demand payment ?

When the tv licensing bod called at the house my sister wasn't home. The guy handed me a form and asked me to sign it. He said it was to acknowledge that he had visited the the address and no current tv license could be produced. Like a fool I didn't read through the the paper before signing. I wrote to the courts explaining all this,not once but twice ! No response ?I have since moved out of Lancashire, two years ago in fact. It would appear that they have been trying to trace me in all that time and even then Collectica had been sending letters or even visiting the wrong address. This is one of the reasons Collectica say they wont make an arrangement with me. Because I have been ignoring all correspondence since June, yet I no longer lived at that address and I can prove it but they wont listen. I cant ignore mail I haven't recieved ?

Thank you.I have submitted a request for some advise.

Can anyone advise me on how to deal with Collectica. They wrote to me back in August saying that I have to pay £505.00 for not paying Lancashire Magistrates court the money that I owe for not having a tv licence. This is quite in depth and goes back to 2012 I will keep the long winded story to a minimum. I was staying at my sisters. Her home, her tv In my ignorance I signed to say that there was in fact no valid tv license at this address He already knew this ( obviously) I just thought there was little point in pleading ignorant and signed ! It goes on further by writing to the courts and explaining the situation,twice ! I never received a response from either. The court has since instructed Collectica to collect the money from me. A letter of their intention was sent to an address that I no longer lived at and hadn't done for almost 6 months. Eventually I received a letter from them at my current address. I called them as instructed in the letter deciding that this wasn't going to go away and make an arrangement with them. ...as stated in the letter. Long story short, the guy was rude, wouldnt let me speak and refused point blank to accept an arrangement as I have been ignoring them for months. It was at this point that their screw up with the wrong address came to light but the guy just didn't want to know saying that there was no intention of accepting any such arrangement and that the letter was a ruse just to get me to call and make immediate payment in full. Eventually he agreed, after supposedly speaking with his 'manager' to give me until November 16th to get the money together which brought huge sense of relief ! but now today 20th October. I received a text to say that full payment is due tomorrow and to make the payment by then. I have called them but got nowhere. They just don't want to listen and said if payment inst received tomorrow then I have to accept the consequence Sorry if I have gone on a bit...really stressed with this !

Hi I have been reliably informed that this is the place to come to get good advise and possibly get some insight as to how I deal with my current and rather scary situation. Reading some of the forums it would appear that I am far from alone but still scared
