  1. Re the post above, i tried to negotiate with the bailiff and offered him the contents of my account £100 but he said the court bailiffs were on their way and the full amount &670 had to be paid to stop them
  2. We have ended up having to beg, steal and borrow the money and pay the bailiff. The police rang the court and were advised that permission had been given to break in entry and as the warrant was at my address there was nothing could do to stop it. I mentioned paragraph 10 etc but was told that once the goods had been taken then I would have the chance to prove ownership.
  3. To cut a long story short the bailiffs came yesterday looking for my partner with regards to a magistrates fine. They have previously visited his mothers address and my partner went to court to pay the fine in full and was told they couldn't accept it and to wait until November until the case was passed back to them. In the meantime they called yesterday and banged on doors and windows scaring me and my kids to death. I called the police who said he was within his rights and she called him up and said that they would be back tomorow at 7 with the police and locksmith. The house is mine I have lived here 5 years and all the belongings (nothing of value) belong to me as my partner previously lived with his parents and hasn't lived here long. He spent all yesterday speaking to people and was advised that under schedule 12. No break of entry could be done as it's my property and belongings. This morning the bailiff has turned up again shouting through letterbox that the police are on there way and locksmith. He's just left after 2 hours of sitting. Please help what shall we do. Update police now here
  4. Hi, thanks for your reply. The car is worth approx £2000 and I not on finance, it was purchased by my dad but on him moving to Spain for 2 years he give me full use of the car and made me the registered keeper for taxing etc My friend transfered the funds to my account as we're both Natwest and I paid on my card. I received the ticket on my car and totally forgot about it, the next notification I received was from equita asking for £100 and something pounds of which I rang straight away and advised of my situation and that I couldn't pay in full, to no avail. Looking back now the bailiff was lying yesterday about the transporter, he said it would be here in half an hour from Huddersfield (which is 20 mins from my house) 30 minute later he made a big deal out of canceling it, saying he didn't think it was possible and then finally miraculously managed to cancel at a charge of £10 for the distance it has travelled. I have today written to equita and the council to complain about 1) the ridiculous fees charged and the fact I was given no breakdown 2) the fact that I fall into the vulnerable category and thirdly that I have received no response from Manchester council from my letter sent almost a month ago . Not sure who I should peruse for costs back? The council or bailiff? And how can I claim back from my bank? Thank you so much once again
  5. Last question! the letter handed to me by the baliff stated that i had 24 hours to make payment, when in fact i was given half an hour. The baliff said the 24 hours is for people who arent in?
  6. and what about the fees he has charged? ie £120 fine just cost me £380! should i persue this as well as the 2 avenues above?
  7. Can i claim back the amount paid (well the baliff fees anyway) on the grounds of been in the vunerable catergory? I advised both the baliff and council today and the council by letter weeks ago but have been told basically tough!
  8. Is that the FE2 and FE3 that the council man asked me to obtain from the courts? I spoke to the courts while the baliff was at the door and they said they would email straight across and i could send straight back with a digital signature. As yet i havn't recieved them
  9. It was parked In a parking bay on a side street, was 5 minutes late back due to 1) not knowing the area (had gone to nearest apple store for a repair) and 2) had my friend and her 3 month old daughter and had to stop and feed her on way back to find car. My dad owns the car ( he purchased it) but im the registered keeper as he moved to Spain and registered me for obtaining tax etc. I receive lower rate mobility so don't have a Disabilty badge/vehicle Thank you
  10. Hi, ive just stumbled upon this site and fingers crossed someone can help me. I recived a letter from Equita Baliffs some weeksago regarding an outstanding parking ticket i occured from Manchester Council, This was the first correspondence i received and immeadiately rang them to advise that as a single parent on benefits inc disability for my son, i was unable to pay in full. Equita stated that i had no other option than to pay in 2 instalments which was not possible. I then wrote to Manchester Council and advised them of my situation some 3 weeks ago and sent a copy to Equita, i told the council that i was in no way trying to avoid the fine but Equita wouldnt accept payments so had no one to pay. This morning a baliff came and blocked in my car, said i had half an hour to pay £378 or a tow truck was on its way at a cost of an extra £200, i immeadiately rang the council where a gentleman asked me if i had recieved any correspondence from street management (WHO??) he gave me the number for court and said if i rang and said i wanted to appeal a trafic enforcement that they would contact tthe baliff and tell him to leave. I rang the number given and was told that the info given was incorrect and would infact take at least 24 hours for the court to email me the documents and read them and make a decision. At this time the baliff is stood at the door telling me the transporter was nearly here. I rang the council back and spoke to a different person and again told him of my circumstances and he said there is nothing we can do, unless you let him take your car and then if court decided in your favour you can get your car back at no cost, he also said if i paid the £378 i was admitting liability and nothing further could be done. The children were all hysterical, i was scared and upset so i got a friend to transfer me the money and i paid the bailiff £390 he charged me £12 as the transporter had set off to my house. Looking on this site i have noticed people mentioning breakdown of fees? i have at no time recieved any notification of fees, 2 letters i have from Equita just states an outstanding amount and one states no amount. I never asked the baliff today as i just wanted him gone. He had a change of personality after i paid him and asked me what the court and council had said, he then commented that once he had been instructed that there was no one possible to stop him or he would have etc etc blah blah I told the baliff of my situaution ie single parent on benefits, son with disability need car for hospital trips etc but to no avail, not to mention i am currently 16 weeks pregnant of which i found out 3 weeks ago my baby had not survived from week 8 and am currently awaiting a natural miscarriage. Is there anything i can now do? i have had to borrow the money off a friend who needs in back in 3 days time of which i am then going to have to pay her with my housing benefit so am now unable to pay my rent, can anyone help, thanks in advance
