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.
I've been having problems with the council who won't reduce the Council Tax bill to reflect that there is only me and a small child living there. They think a non dependent is here, even though I have told them this is not so on countless occasions, including in writing. The bill is in my name and this council is a complete nightmare. I just wonder if they make their own rules up as they go along.
The last of my older kids moved out last year and the council want a forwarding address before they'll alter the bill to single occupancy. I don't see why I should provide this info, especially if I don't know it. It'll just go on yet another database (there are enough of these already) for snoops to use and/or lose!! What happens when people split up and one walks out and the other doesn't know where they've gone?
If you have advised them that persons have moved out shouldn't that be it; are you required in law to give them a forwarding address? If this is so, could someone point me to the relevant legal gumph, please.
