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 wrote a cahoot asking for list of charges and demanding that they be repaid within 14 days. I received an email acknowledgment saying they would respond properly within 5 working days.
After 6 working days, I contacted them again by email to say I still hadn't received a satisfactory response.
The following day I received an email saying a list of the bank charges was in the post and they came to £495.
The refuse to admit that the bank charges were unfair, said they were in line with what other banks charged and were advertised when I opened my account. If I didn't like it I could go elsewhere.
They did however offer me a £250 gesture of goodwill providing I didn't go ahead with a court case.
So I've got them on the run.
I'm tempted to go for the full amount, but have a £7,000 loan still outstanding with them, repayable over 6 years.
I'm concerned about having my account closed and cahoot demanding I repay the money.
Presumably, they've entered into a fixed term contract so they couldn't this.... or could they?
Accept offer or fight on?
providing I didn't go ahead with a court case.
