Oh i dunno what to do now, i went to the council it is their policy not to take back the debt and they actually said the Bailiffs will keep hounding me until it is paid!! I didn't even recieve a 14 days notice of the Bailiff coming as i have read other people have! I cannot afford to pay it all in full but nor do i want them in my house to make a Levi on things, i wouldn't mind but only recently moving out on my own for the 1st time everything is still being paid for so they have nothing to take anyway

OK maybe tomorrow i will visit the council offices in person with my letters off the Bailiffs and ask them to take my debt back and hope that works. Honestly i feel sick to my stomach with all this...and all my silly fault

Ok so it's Quarter to 5 in the morning and i have been scouring the net for advice as i cannot sleep so here goes..... Ok i missed a council tax payment so they demanded the rest of the year in full..No qualms about that as i hold my hands up for neglecting that, so i get court order which i never went to, again me being ignorant. Anyway i never heard anything about it until yesterday morning i hear a knock at the door, so i go downstairs and there is a letter from jacobs Bailiffs saying in short: NOTICE OF ATTENDANCE TO SEIZE GOODS Amount Due £630.77 and costs (handwritten in red) Liabilty order taken against you i have attended your property to seize goods please contact me to make arrangements on how to pay at this stage you can pay by installments etc etc THEN in red ink £50 circled So i peered out of my window and saw an oldish guy sat in a car who appeared to be filling out paper work then he drove off. This Morning my daughter came to me with another letter posted through the door saying in short: NOTICE OF ATTENDANCE TO SEIZE GOODS Amount Due £648.77 and costs (again in red ink) You failed to correspond so final oppotunity to pay Bailiffs by installments if you fail to contact me the matter will be passed on to our Enforcement Bailiffs THEN in red in £50 circled and 24 hours circled *SIGH* I know it is all my own fault etc but i am too scared to contact these people after the things i have read in this forum. I want to pay my debt and instead of notifying the council of my reasons of mispayment i childishly ignored it but i don't see a way of sorting this without Bailiffs breaking into my house and seizing goods or as the letter says at the back i may get a commital to prison. So is my only way out of this is to liason with the Bailiffs??? Oh and why is there £18 added onto the outstanding balance plus £50 at the bottom of both letters handwritten in red and circled??
