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 have just found out that my daughter had taken a loan with wellcome ( shark) finance. They have taken her for a very expensive ride, she took the loan of £2,000 to buy a car two years ago, she has paid £3000 so far and still owes £2,000, why she did not ask my wife and I for the money ??well thats kids for you, they think they know best. We cannot get a final amout from them as the paperwork is a complete mess. I'm going to stand outside their offices in Cecil square, Margate and warn would be custormers about borrowing money from this lot. I would love some support - anyone up for it?

I totally agree, Welcome finance are a rip off. They dont know where they are with their own finances half of the time, and I used to get letters 3 to 4 times a month which they charged me £25 each for, because they werent upto date with my payments. I really would not use the company for a loan.
