Hi All

 

Council's are governed by the 6 year rule so they have to bring the matter before the Magistrates' within 6 years of the debt falling due. Once they have the Liability order there is no time scale in which to collect they debt by.

 

As long as the Council served documentation at the "last known address" then it is seen by the Magistrates' as good service even though you may have moved and not collected your mail.

 

As you're not on the electoral register they wont be able to pick you up from that.

 

Most Council's do have a write off policy. Generally if the bailiff returns it as absconder and the Council either passess it out to a tracing agency ior does the work themselves and they're unable to locate the person then they will write the debt off.

 

if you have any querie PM me
