Hi all update time my form 4 hearing is less than a week away now next friday to be exact. Ok I said watch this space cos its gunna get very interesting I have what I believe executed my final bombshell of an ace up my sleeve Remember Im complaining in part because The bailiff failed to leave a form 7 notice of siezure and inventory of good at the time he levied a car on my drive. However some time later along with my subject access request I did recieve a photocopy of a form 7 that Equita say is a copy of the one filled out and posted through my door at the time of levy Now Im damn sure this form 7 was written some time after the levy and sent to me just to passify me. Now the bailiff has confirmed in his own written statement that he did indeed write out the form 7 at the time of levy useing his DIGITALl PEN. Now this is the bombshell I am aware and have been for a very long time that these digital pens turn written text into a digital format that then gets sent at the time of writing to the Equita main computer system via the bailiffs mobile phone. At the time of use they record Time Date & GPS location so that this evidence can be used in court cases to prove time and actual visit to any one that contests it. see this link ad scroll down to the Equita title Case Studies So now little old me has only gone and asked Equita to provide date time and GPS info as recorded by the bailiffs digital pen when he wrote out my form 7 now considering Equita want this case thrown out Im sure if they could have proven what they say to be correct before it got to court. They would have used this info to do so. Any way Guess what after 7 days Equita still havnt given it to me so I have written to the court asking the Judge to order it I dont know that he will Ill keep you all posted good luck all

Hello there you need to send them another request head it letter before action you must give them a further 7 days after that you can complain to the information commitioners office Good luck

Yes I intend to prove fraud from both the bailiffs and the management team

Hello fellow cagers sorry im not posting as often as I was however here is an update on my battle with the bailiffs After the directions meeting both I and the bailiff were instructed to send to each other and the court any witness statements that we wanted to include at the form 4 hearing that has now been done my Wife and son both had a little to input on the matter and the bailiff has replied to their statements now if I can ask you all to cast your minds way back to when I started this war I was saying that it was my belief that equita had commited fraud against me over the conduct of several accounts that they have held so the basis of this formal form 4 hearing is that the bailiff in question failed to leave a notice of siezure and inventory of goods and that at the same time he applied a fee that is not prescibed in by law. So now the hearing is set for the first week in November and to be honest I cant wait I am so excited Im almost beside myself but also a little nervouse lol. Now guys Im not going to say to much but watch this space its gunna get VERY VERY interesting over the next few days or so. Good luck all and above all DONT PANICK

Hi every one found out what this directions meeting is all about I was told by some one at the court its simply a meeting between me the bailiff and the judge so as the judge can understand the whole case better as it seems quite complex and decide how long the formal form 4 hearing is likely to take wish me luck im due to attend this monday I will as allways keep you all posted

Ok Karpoozi you need to listen and reply to tomtubby she is your best bet here it sounds like Equita has applied there normal ileagal ENFORCEMENT FEE they can NOT do this and you must persue this just dont let them in and dont pay them a penny good luck keep us posted

Oops got it wrong it a directions meeting silly me but im still not sure what it is ill ask tt she will know

Hi all just a quick update I have heard back from the court that certificated the bailiff that I complaining about and geuss what the judge that looked at it believe's that there is something for the bailiff to answer to so I have been given a date to attend court from what the lady said on the phone this is just a "resolve meeting" I geuss to see if we can sort it before it goes any further. I will know more when I recieve the letter on Monday will post back again then .

Very well done NN4 & TT

Oh by the way if you have a car dont park it near your home they can levy on this also

Hello and wellcome first of all you have found the right place second dont panick now for starters Im pretty damn sure that the Equita bailiff will have hiked up the amount that you have to pay with what he will call an "enforcement fee" if he has this is not allowed spend some time today reading the forums here and you will begin to feel better educate yourself thier are things bailiffs can and cant do and one of them is just to turn up and remove your goods its not as simple as that but he's hopeing you dont know this on monday ring him again and ask him exactly how the amount is made up be polite dont let on that you are getting help from here and try to record the conversation see if he will admit to this "enforcement fee" he probabbly will. Now for some basic rules NEVER and I mean NEVER let a bailiff in to your home not even if his head is falling off and he wants to call an ambulance there is no law that says you must let him in he can only gain entry by peacefull means so if the door is unlocked he can walk in if a window is open he can climb in once he is in he can and will levy against your goods and then any payment plan you break he will have the power to return and remove goods with a lock smith if nesacarey now like i said start educating yourself on here and one of the big guns will be along to help more shortly however the week end is normally quite quiet on here good luck keep us posted oh by the way where are you from

lol morning TT

Hi can I ask has a bailiff ever been in your home also what area do you live in im sure you are aware if no bailiff has ever been in your property and has not levied on a car outside then all they can charge is first and second visit fee witch amounts to £42.50

That she is

Hi all Im back been away a couple of weeks Form 4 has gone in and Equita replied with yet more untruthes and in acurate statements now I have sent my confirmation that I wish to proceed with my form 4 so now I just sit back and wait for the court to decide if I need a hearing will keep you all posted.

Hi can I ask who the bailiff firm is please

Hello all I have had a few days off now I am back here is an update for you Form 4 complaint was sent in last week and I have had a reply back from the court saying they are now dealing with it and have sent a copy of the form 4 to Equita and they have now less than 2 weeks to reply to it so now all I need do is sit back and wait and while im doing that ill get a letter to the information comissioners office sorted see if I can get hold of those pesky screen shots Equita refuse to give me will keep you posted guys.

Ahh sorry I was refering to council tax

I have investigated this a little it seems bailiffs cant charge a credit card fee there was a detailed asessment on the subject and the out come was that they can not charge a credit card fee but I think it seems any one is yet to challenge the debit card fee in the same way I was considering a detailed asessment for this myself we shall see

Hi babyneedsanewcoat here is a link to my main thread please read it we are both having the same problems with Birmingham and Equita and if we were to join forces we would have a stronger case as TRUST me on this the council will not see any wrongdoing on Equitas part NO MATTER what you say or send to the council I have expieianced this for myself I have had a meeting with Head of Revenues and some VERY High directors from Equita and my evidance was slapping them in the face but they were not interested in the slightest so with Tomtubbys help Im going to take them all the way as far as it can go anyway heres the link http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bailiffs-sheriff-officers/201013-im-sure-equita-have.html

Hi who wrote the letter from the council please tell me I think we have a very simalar problem you and I and it may be helpfull to us both if we can in some way join forces if you dont want to post his name here pm it to me
