Damn. Well the name is unreadable so i cant do that either. The inventory names the item and the item color, thats as specific as it gets. What are the chances in these sorts of situations for me to come to a more doable payment agreement, or to deal direct with the council? I really appreciate your help Chris

WPA = walking possesion agreement? Standard stuff it seems, all seems above board. I cannot make out the name of the Bailiff as he has only signed the document...no numbers left except the office number. The Inventory was signed by my friend as well by the way...how valid is it?

Hi everyone, i am after some advice as i am not sure what to do in my current situation. Long story short i owe Council Tax for the year to the tune of £1147.27 As a person living by himself i believe i am not liable for all of this but never followed it up. As i havent paid a penny the council passed over this debt to Bristow and Sutor. My friend let in the bailiff when i was at work. The conversation went something like: Bailiff: can i come in Friend: sure My friend assumed if he didnt let the bailiff in then the police would come - of course this isnt the case but he didnt know. Once the bailiff was inside he made an inventory, and a "Notice of seizure of Goods" This was on Friday 24th Oct, and i was given 5 days to begin making installments or my property would be seized. The amount to be paid back is unrealistic for 2 reasons: 1 - it is out of my means 2 - i am not liable for the full sum (although i may well have given up that right!!) All the paperwork looks to be in order, except the Inventory is not very specific. For example - where it says "PC - Black" i can quite easily remove my PC and replace it with a Black PC case. I know he did not inspect or record the quality of my property. I have not contacted the Bailiff, or the Council. This is because i first found out about this Friday PM after returning from work. Saturday and Sunday are not working days of course, and i have not had the chance to deal with this at work today. So now i have tonight and tomorow to figure out my position. Any advice appreciated, many thanks.
