Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
Hi eveyone out there I have just finished stage one of the process and have sent out my data protection letter.
Anyone know if you can claim compo for having a heart attack I couldnt believe the charges I had got on my account. No wonder I cant stay in the black it is a constant downward spiral.
I will keep everyone posted about what happens. But I can say one thing I will fight them all the way to court if I have to.
P.s. A bit of maybe a silly question, as the issue centres around common contract law, can the principles be used across all forms of financial contractual agreements:?
I have requested via the data protection act details of all my bank charges, however I had a phone call from cahoot regarding something entirely different and thought why not ask. I did and have now recieved details of my bank charges totaling £1440
I have therefore started doing the letter (infact all it needs is a stamp) but thought that I might try talking to a manager to see whether or not they would settle without the threat of court action. Especially in light of the number of claims they must have ongoing
I will keep you posted on how my little chat goes.
I doubt it.. but let us know how it goes... I e-mailed them the prelim and the lba, with several e-mails inbetween, in response to their fob off e-mails... no joy at all... I suppose though, it does depend on who you deal with - though I am getting the feelinng that banks are using the process till the last minute to see if you will give up..
