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.
Got my first letter from Town and City Parking for apparantly overstaying my welcome at a free car park. Am sending them a template letter as helpfully supplied via this site.
Just wondered if anyone had dealings with TCP and what they are like.
My main concern is getting phone calls, as a quick search for my name will find my work phone number quickly. And the last thing I want is for my boss to start getting harrassing calls from TCP or whichever debt collector they instruct.
Best thing to do is ignore them as if you write they will just assume they have you worried and bombard you with more demands for payment of an unenforceable invoice not a parking fine.
Inform your employer that you have been in receipt of a [problem] invoice from a [problem] private parking company and any letters phone calls etc to be ignored.
Bernie's templates are well written, but they don't have the desired effect. In fact, a PPC is more likely to pester you for longer if you contact them, whatever you write.
OK, thanks. So, just to confirm - I just ignore anything that comes from EITHER TCP OR DEBY COLLECTORS? Or am I required to respond to debt collectors?
I also presume I shouldn't ignore any summons, though it sounds liek it never gets that far.
