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.
Just a quick post to say hi.
I'm in the process of reading various posts at the moment, I have already found some good advice,cheers.
I have two accounts, HSBC & Lloyds Tsb.
Unfortuanetly both are overdrawn.
Amazingly LTSB have paid my DD's etc, and have charged me around £30.00.
HSBC on the other hand have withdrawn payements, morgtage etc, and have up till now charged me around £120.00 for the privelage.
Isn't their a common rate for banks, or do they charge according to the Managers needs, holiday in Florida etc.
Amazingly, there is a fairly close correlation of charges between banks - I'll leave you to draw your own conclusions from that...!
