Yes, but i have left the detail at work, i am going to ask for a statement from the Baliff. Do you know why there are different levy charges? why wont the council take the debt back? I have not missed a payment, i pay on time and have paid ove £2,000 in the last 14 months? heading to bed now as up for work in the morning, thankis for your help so far? it is hard getting your head around all of this thanks

so are you saying they can charge me for each seperate liabilty order? There was a copy of something put through my door ref the car? But nothing else? The council have told me a baliff can levy even if he does not get in the house, i have not got any further documentation at all, only the one for the car, and as i said it was on finance? What about the different amounts they have charge, for the levy's how do they get the figure? Thanks

I have just re read the replies above and there was also a Walking Possession order, this might have been for a car we had on the drive when they visited, however, the sad thing about this is the car was on finance and at the time waiting to be repossed by the company As you can see i have had a few bad years i am now trying to get back on track and turn everything around, which is why i am now trying to inveswtigate and make sense of everything i have paperwork wise, i have just been keeping everything, and to be honest i am really lost by it all, frustrated, and feel that the Baliffs have really taekn me for a ride? Help

Hi Thanks for the advise so far, i have spoken to the council and found out the following In total 4 liability orders were issued to Rossendales, one for 91.75, the secon for 65.43, the third for £288.38 and the last one for £1338.28. The council issued them all in July 2008, but they were issued on different dates, 17 July, 21 July, 22 July and 27 July. The council have told me that because they are issued them seperatley then i can be charged for each one so therefore 4 x first visit, 4 x second visit, 4 levy fees and 4 van fees, if needed. All liabiltys were posted through the door by one balliff (Mr Mallon), but then a week later i got 3 through the door again, from a different Baliff Mr Hill) I have never signed or allowed a Baliff into my home, but they have raised levys, i am not sure on what? The councilo have told me that they are allowed to do this. I ahve also been charged Van fees twice, although i have never seen a van. I have for the first amount 91.75, been charge £163.75 so in total paid 255.50? I have askd the council to take back the debt and they have told me that there is no way they can do this, the only way is if a debt had been passed to the Balliffs incorrectly? Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was planning to ring the council tomorrow, as i have sat all night looking at this, i will then ring and find out the actual charges, what i really need to know is can they charge a first and second visit on multiple liabilities, it would be good to know I also need to know if they should have charge levy fees, as each one is a different amount, on what i have been given from the council, vary from £37, £54 and the other £62? And what about van charges two of these at £110? It would be good to have this when i talk to the council? I really need the council to taike back the debt. I have left it a while as i have in the last year lost my Mam and also my Father in Law both to Cancer, and it has been really tough as they both needed care, so this has been at the back of my priority, i am now out of Christmas and feel okay to now get into this and sort it once and for all Any help woulod be great, i am ringing the council tomorrow anyway, i am at work tomorrow, so always find it hard to have a private conversation. Thanks nfor your help, so far

Hi Help, i need to understand how much i can be charged in fees, and what exactly is a levy. I have 3 years of outstanding council tax with Rossendales, i have been paying £150 each month, i am now back tracking and checking all fees, and as i had more than one issued, i have been charged seperatley for first visits, second visits, and on each a levy fee. I have never spoken to a balliff or signed any document, so what is this levy, they have never entered my home. I have also been charged twice for vans calling? i am paying and do have an agreement, i am now looking at the detail with the council, as i feel it is unfair charges. Can they keep charging for each seperate one, to the best of my knowledge, they were all issued at the same time, allthough i do have lots of different letters and balliff names at the bottom of them? I have repaid over £2000, in the last 14 months, and now feel in a position to challenge the charges Can anyone help Thanks Susan
