Bailiff levied my car so worried as I need it for work

[tonycee]

I was advised to sell my car to a family member,

 

 

If you have sold the car before their levy, then they cant touch it.

 

How to notify DVLA if you sell your vehicle : Directgov - Motoring

 

Of course the sale date must be BEFORE the levy date.

[tonycee]

If the car was sold before their levy on it, then its no longer yours to be levied on, and there is nothing they can do.

However if you have not done all the necessary paperwork signed and dated BEFORE the levy, then there is not much you can do.

 

Apart from lie, which i wouldnt want anything to do with.

 

How much is the car worth ? Is there any HP on it ?

 

 

The account for 2008/09 will be deemed liable in full, in advance, after a liability order is gained.

 

 

The procedure is normally 2 warnings, then 3 rd time your out.

Its the government, they can do it.

 

Finally, dont beat yourself up, im sure you are doing your best for all.

If consecutive governments insist on taxing us to death, what can we do ?

Then you must forward proof of sale, dated accordingly, to the bailiff company, and the DVLA.

 

Be prepared to expect them to throw their toys out of their prams.

Expect them to challenge what you are fowarding to them, but if its all correct, then i dont see what they can do other than take you through the courts, which i doubt very much they will do.

[tonycee]

I just wanted to add that i am not encouraging anybody to commit any form of fraud here.

 

I am simply stating a fact that if,

 

You sold the car on a Tuesday, the bailiffs cannot levy on it on the Wednesday, as its not yours anymore.

 

End of.

WELCOME BACK TOMTUBBY.

 

I have soooo missed you.

 

A true legend returns.

[tonycee]

Can't pay them this much, and don't really want to pay them either want to pay the council,

 

Then pay the council direct. They canot refuse payment.

 

any suggestions on a reply to them?

F OFF thieving scumbags springs to mind. But that wouldnt go down to well. Just ignore them. Like a rash, they will go away eventually.

 

I am sure the charges keep changing, as the price on bailiff letter was 1.401.00.

I am convinced that they are incredibly clever, or stupid.

Dont be suprised by anything they do.

Despite a recent court ruling that they cant charge credit/debit card fees, they still put it in writing.

 

Thank you for you help so far.
