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.
Folks in this never ending war against the banks, we can sometimes forget the few occassions when they do behave in a commendable way. After my Mrs recently won her case against the RBS,She has all her charges creditd to her previously frozen RBS bank account(an account she thought had long been closed i might add). The staff at Liverpool city branch deliberatly frustrated my mrs in her attempts to get the money out of the account.So how amazed we were to find uncle tommy coming to the rescue, he couldnt have been more helpful assisting my mrs and spend considerable time on the phone to the branch while she was there until her funds were released to her. NICE ONE TOM,just thought we mention it on here !
Hear hear!
I too got my money back extremely quickly thanks to Mr McLean and his sidekick Ross McDonald!
And all timescales were adhered to, in fact they replied well before the deadlines.
Thanks again Tommy and Ross!

Hi Biffa1965
I too have been totally frustrated by the Liverpool branch, a lady called Vicky Harban was a total horror, Im now dealing with Tommy McLean (Do you think he'll be kind to me cause we have the same surname!?). Did your wife actually file her MCOL or didn't it come to that? If she did, how long after she filed did she receive payment??
Thanks

allo pmclean, as it happens it never got to mcol. Uncle tommy offered half the original claim, then when it was refused he offered the full asking claim. I think, as one of the other folk posting on here has said, if your polite then tommy is a very reasonable man. i would phone the guy he is very pleasant and approachable and will sort your problem. Mind you the same cant be said for the staff at liverpool city centre branch
