I'm posting off a phone so it's very difficult, i'll post off a computer the full breakdown today.

How do i find out what's kosher or not ? One of the registrations he wrote down was correct but the car it belongs to honestly wouldn't cover his costs or the council tax lol. Would the levy still stand on car he got wrong and could they come back and re-levy against this car to cover their fees.

I've had a reply back from the council and I have been told that all their fees have been paid in full. the woman from the council say that it ia now upto me to sort out and pay the baliffs fees which amount to 223 pounds. These fees include a levy on my two cars one of which he wrote the wrong registration down also a waiting fee and a van fee. I have spoke to national debt line and they have advised me that if the council have let me pay them direct and accepted my payment then I am no longer responsible for the baliffs fees as they no longer have a debt to collect. Can anyone give me anymore advice on this matter .

Sorry if it does not make sense , it doesn't make a lot of sense to me either. I haven't received any letters with charges on and when the original baliff came I refused to sign anything and I just asked him for some payment slips and said I will start to pay 60 pounds a month. Prior to the visit on tuesday I still did not receive any letters giving me notice of 14 days to pay or someone would visit me.

Sorry forgot to say i got a friend to pay the council direct over the phone, the council tax supervisor. I only paid the £322.90 I didn't want to pay the bailiff on the day as i was fuming and didn't understand how he got to the figure of his costs, that and i don't like bullies. When i say "on the day" i mean on the day i payed the council, not the day the bailiff came.

The lady at the council said she'd withdrawn the bailiffs for 28 days to give me time to formally complain, she also said the bailiffs will still want paying so i assume the council will not be paying. The national debt line have told me if the council have withdrawn the bailiffs they are liable fo there costs. I don't understand why they have withdrawn them for twenty eight days if i've paid the full liability £322.90. The WPO says at the top "notice of distress" and goes on to list two cars under "the inventory", no-one signed it. His costs are Client debt and costs £322.90 levy fee £34.00 Others £195.00 Total £551.90

Hope you stick with me as it's a little long winded. On tuesday of this week I had a visit fom a very abusive Rossendale baliff. I wanted to try and get some advice on a couple of things and whilst googleing Rossendale , I came across this forum. In september of last year I answered the door to what I now know was a Rossendale Baliff. He told me that I owed council tax which amounted to £440. I agreed to pay £60 a month , I sorted this out on the door step as I know never to let them in. I paid 2 months and then money became tight, inbetween this I changed jobs so things became a little worse. To cut a very long story short I was defrosting my sons car as he was taking me to work, as I walked out the door there was a stranger standing on the step. He never showed me any I D he just said he was here to remove some of my possesions and he was from Rossendales and unless I paid the amount in full he would need to enter my property. I went back in the house forgetting that the car was running he went to get in my sons car and said he would take that instead . I told him that I was on my way to work and he was having nothing I would ring the council and sort it with them. He said it had to be done right here right now. I told my son to go out and I would get to work in the other vehicle. I told the baliff to go away and again that I was going to be late. I came in the house and got the keys to my other vehicle and told him I was going to work, as I got into my car he blocked the dive with his vehicle and said I was going nowhere. I got out of my car and came back into the house to ring my partner as by this time I was feeling intimidated and getting very worried. When I was back in the house the baliff kept banging on my door. I eventually watched him get in his van, my driveway was still blocked by him so I got in my vehicle and drove away down the bridle path at the side of my house. When I came back in he had tucked a walking possesion order in my font door , he had put his costs on and had put a levy on both of the cars . There is a lot more to this story but I just want to stick to the facts. I found out from another forum that the council have to accept my payment of which they did yesterday. The lady from the council says that now the full liabilty order has been paid she will withdraw the baliffs for 28 days. I never signed the walking posession order and on the order he wrote the wrong registration number down of one of the cars. my question to you is , now that I have paid the full liability order , do I have to pay the baliffs fees and does his levy still stand , bearing in mind that I have not signed the walking posession order and he wrote the reg of one of the cars down wrong. I have spoke to someone from the National debt helpline who says that once the liability order has been paid the baliffs can no longer chase me for their fees. Thanks for taking the time to read this ...... Hayley !!!!

Thank you, just a little lost, my heads not working right with all the stress.

Hi I wonder if someone could point me in the right direction , I need help on posting my council tax baliffs on the right forum. I have just registered and do not seem to be able to find the right forum. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated Hayley !!
