Hi dx100uk I left the property on 16/10/2003, The first liability order was granted on the 10/10/2003 but the council, only posted notice of this on the 15/10/2003, the day before my tenancy ended. And was posted to the address the liability was obtained for, even tho i was a council tenant and had to give them notice to move out, they still never managed to inform me before hand. The second liability order was obtained on 15/03/2004 and was posted to an address of which i never officially lived, my was a family members home where i stayed for a few months from october 03 to december 03. And until the beginning of this year have had no contact with the council regarding this. I have already paid the baliff, Equita, £40 by card yesterday as the threatened to have a baliff at my house, and also wouldn't let me set up a payment plan without this payment, and i said in my original post, The council have point blank refused to take it back, and told me even if they could i would have to pay them £85 a month as would have to be paid before the new financial year

Thank you Any advice would be much appreciated

Good morning, Not sure where to start with this one, but i have 2 outstanding Liability order for council tax from 10 years ago (when i was 18 years old). I was only aware these orders even existed until earlier this year when i received a letter from Said Council saying they had traced me to the address where i was living at the time and had been for 8years..... I contacted the council asking for a the amounts, legal costs & period in which they had been charged for, They sent me this in writing in May of this year. As i was a single parent at the time on benefits i would have been in receipt of full HB & CTB at the time so the fact that i owe them any CT is beyond me... Money's were being deducted out of my Income support THIS year to pay towards this oustanding debt, but as i am now Working and NOT on benefits that money is no longer being deducted and they received the last payment from me on the 14/10/13 of just over £14, I have just within the last few days had 2 Letters from Equita bailiffs, stating i will someone to come out to levy good to recoup the debt, contacted them first thing Monday morning AND STUPIDLY i have now made arrangements with them to pay monthly only after 3 phone calls to them. I have now made some investigations with the Council as to when the CTB wasnt paid, the reasons why, the dates the liability orders were made, When & Where they were Sent to, they Date it was past on to DCA etc as was adviced by the CAB, I have asked the Council to take the debt back but they refused, And considering that the last payment they recived from me was the 14/10/13 they had already past the debt onto equita on the 10/10/13. I am at a loss with Equita as they threatened to have a baliff come to my house even tho i was calling them to set up payment arrangements within 2 days of recieveig their letters, Thes first call telling me i had to make an initial payment of £50 before they would set up monthly payment, the second call telling me if i didnt pay £90 over the phone NOW by card then i would have baliff at my door, and the 3rd call letting me pay £40 (which i had to borrow) before setting up monthly payments, the council have told me that they sent me notice to pass on to DCA back in May, but they had been getting payment from until a month ago... I am now scared out of my witts that i will still get baliffs at my door even tho i have made initial payments as i was told by Equita that they would just add a Levy fee to my account anyway without the baliff coming And to clarify these Liability orders Add up to £309 and where made just days before i moved out of the property, and 6 months after sending them to address i never even lived.... HELP please
