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 do need some help/advice though. My partner hubby, rented out his house for a year through an agent in 2001.
He today has recieved a final demand for some outstanding Council Tax that his tenant didn't pay. (way back in 2001)
He's just been in touch with the letting agent that he used, but the letting agent has just told him that they only keep records for 6 years.
He's telephoned the council to explain, but they are going to proceed with the recovery... whatever that means.
How can they recover money from someone who there is now no record of? Or do they mean that they are going to try to get the money from my hubby?
Worried of Cheshire (although it was Barnsley Council)
PS. I'm sorry to dump a rotten post for my first one, but I'm really concerned.
