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.

All these chages your son has taken CAN be reclaimed. It's going to take some time, but it can be done. Have a read of the threads and links in my signiture to understand the process. The http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk...tructions.html is a good place to start.
It is a good idea to open another account with a unrelated bank and have his credits paid in there. He can then, hopefully, keep that 'clean'.
I'll keep an eye on you, I'm in the same boat with my son !!!
