Hi. I origally received a ccj for £7300 The claimant handed it over to a debt collection agency and I agreed to pay a set sum every month. I fell behind payments as thing where a little tight and the debt collection agency escalated it up to the high court. I had several visits while I was not at home from a HCEO and paid to them sums I could afford at the time to them. The HCEO later wrote saying that due to irregular payments to them they where handing back the case to the debt collection agency I then set up a new plan with the debt collection agency and have stuck to it now leaving just £250 to pay to cover original ccj They have sent me a statement which includes fees of £96 for transfer fee up to high Court £211. 01 enforcement cost. Do I have to pay these fees as I did think as the HCEO has given up I was not responsible for them. Thanks.

Can someone please advise. I have been paying off a ccj I received. I was paying monthly as agreed and fell behind as money was tight. The claimant handed over to a debt collection company who then upped it to the high court. They contacted me and I did my best to pay of any amounts I could to them. After approximately 4 months they gave up and handed back to the debt collection Agency. I have been paying regularly now and have all but paid off the full amount. The outstanding sum includes; fee for transfer and enforcement fees. My question is as they gave up and handed back. Am I liable for those fees, and only liable for the judgement amount Thank you

Hi. My daughter has received a parking charge for overstaying at Aldi car park She popped into store and on return car would not start. She called me as she only recently passed her test and did know what to do. I drove up there and got her going,she had a flat battery as left friend in car with lights on and playing music. So now got a demand for payment as parking was only for 1 hour 30 mins. With the time for me to drive there and get her going took us over time. I haven't contacted anyone yet so looking for advice as think a little unfair. The camera only shows her entering and leaving. Thanks for any advice

Thanks for reply. Yes I have sent all forms to Tec. The first I knew about any of this is when I found a seize letter in post box. I was told after ringing TEC that no enforcement would continue once my application had gone in. I had received conformation from TEC that they have received my paperwork but the bailiff still decided to call back. I tried to have a civil conversation over the phone with him, I don't know what charm school he went to !! I know they must see conflict all the time but wow he certainly got out of the worn side of bed. I shall know wait to see what comes back from the TEC thanks for advice.

Hi can someone clarify for me I filed an out time/extension formsTe7 and Te9 to sort a parking fine I had no knowledge about until bailiffs contacted me. A bailiff came around and left a walking possession on my work van ,sign written ( he has even stated this on form). I rang him and to let him that know that I have sent the forms to the council and to ask him about seizing my van as I had a look around on the web and it seems a work van is exempt. He very vocally, I might add told me to get my facts right and he had every right to as the law had changed and put he phone down on me!! Can someone let me know who's right.

Ps the van is not on finance and owed by me personally. It's value is approx £1500 I mention. This as the bailiff mentioned something about the value of the van in regards to the fee they are attempting to collect

Thanks for reply I cannot check paper work until tonight when home. I will get back then. Many thanks.

Hi I did not have any luck in stopping a ccj against me for a credit card debt. I now have a letter from Aplins solicitors threatening to send bailiffs round to collect. I am unable to pay the total amount and would like to set up a payment to them. I believe I have to do this through the courts. Can Someone please advise how I go about this. Thankyou.

Thanks for quick reply. I think I see if they file pre trail questionnaire. My feeling is that after reading my witness statement they realise their claim is weak. Their list of directions that I eventually got amounted to 3 bits of paper that had no real relevance to their claim.

Hi I am defending a claim and to date the claimants solicitor was over a month late Serving their directions. Now the claimant has failed to serve their witness statement. The directions made by the judge only say that if the pre-trial check list is late that the claim will struck out. This is due beginning of March. I have contacted the court who told me to put in writing the details of the claimants late filing. Do I wait to see if the claiment files their Pre trail check list or do I go for strike out now. I feel a little disadvantaged that I have sent all my witness statement to the claiments solicitor with nothing back Thanks for any advice

Hi have posted a couple of threads and had helpful responses. I'm defending a claim being made agaist me. The district judge made alist of orders that were to be done by certain dates. The claimants solicitor was over a month late serving their disclosure by list to me. Now the claimants solicitor has failed to file their witness statement by the given date. I have contacted the court who advised that I put it in writing to the court which I have done. The order only says that an automatic strike out will happen if the Pre trail check lists are not filed on time. Do I wait to see if the claimant fails to do this, or should I apply for strike out now. Thanks for any advice.

I wrote to the claimants solicitor to inform him that if I did not receive their standard disclosure that I would contact the court to strike out the claim. The claimants solicitor is claiming that he has not received a copy of my defence and this is the reason that he has not forwarded their disclosure He is also claiming I am in breach of civil procedure rules and that I am acting in an unreasonable manner. I do not want to fall foul of the judge so would it be best for me to send another copy of my defence to him first. I

That's for your reply I think it looks like I may have to seek solicitors advice. What I urgently need advice on though is what should I do about claimants solicitor not providing disclosure as directed by the court and that he is now requesting to see all my paperwork. I feel that I am showing all my cards on the table, surely this can't be right.

little backgound: I received a county court claim from an ex employee. claim was made against myself personally. I informed claiments solicitor who then put in a second claim with me as 1st defendant and my Ltd company as the 2nd defendant. Two defences were filled as per instructions from the county court. Court sent out directions to all parties 1st one being that by 27th December each party shall give standard disclosure by list to other party. On the 23rd December 2011 I received an email from claimants solicitor stating that, as he had not received a copy of defence that he would not be subbmitting claiments standard disclosure. I as instructed sent my disclosure to claimants solicitor as directed by the court. I did not receive anything from the claimant. I informed the court in writing that the claimant had failed as instructed to give their standard disclosure by list. Today I received an email from claimants solicitor requesting to see documents in my standard disclosure. What should I do? I still have not received anything from claimant and feel it a little unfair that I do not have any chance to see any of claimants paperwork, although I do not want to put myself in a postition of not carrying out the court directions. Im not sure if the solicitor is playing games as he knows i am not using a solicitor myself. This is because, I did contact a solicitor at the begining and he informed me that the claimant is under a fixed fee arrangement and has not taken out insurance for himself. This means that I cannot claim any costs back from him. Any advice would be very much appreciated

Hi I am the defendant in a county court claim. I have filled my defence as requested and the court has aknowlege receipt. The claimant and I were given directions by the court, one being that by the 28th December we must both give standard disclosure by list. I received an email today from the claimants solicitor of a letter they sent on the 23 december to the court saying that they have not seen a copy of my defence so can not supply disclosure. Since they have had from the 14th November (the day I filed my defence) to ask for a copy can I apply to have the claim struck out? Thank you Anybody have an opinion please?

Thanks for that Have a Great Christmas and a happy new year
