2nd Visit from Marston Group HELP!!

[gizzmansl2]

today i have received my second letter from martson group saying final notice, i must pay £345 now to avoid costs and there will be NO further warnings, this is for a police fine last year and it has gone from the hmsc reading to the bailiffs, what can i do, will they take payment plans or how long can i ignore them and will/can they get into my house on the 3rd visit, any details would be great thanks

[ambershadow]

Can you not call the court and make arrangements

[gizzmansl2]

i have tried the 1st time and they said ive had to many chances and its gone to far etc so its out of their hands, she said there was nothing i can do, i cant fill out a n245 form either as my case is not the right one for it

[ambershadow]

There must be a form for you to fill in phone them back and see what you have to do dont say who you are Just ask the questions as if it wasn't you

[gizzmansl2]

they said there is nothing i can do because its gone too far, they want the money simple as, what can they do at this time, how much time have i got, because im starting work next month an can start to pay it then

[ambershadow]

Yes We all realise they want the money But if you don't have it you can't pay it can you?

 

I would write to the court with a payment plan and a small payment what you can afford, it's no good telling them next month you can pay when infact you may not have enough money, so What I suggest is you sort out a realistic payment and enclose with your letter and don't stop paying them.

 

There are letter you can write to the bailiffs telling them you are paying direct to the court, AND I MUST POINT OUT ITS NOT A CIMINAL OFFENCE TO NOT PAY THE BAILIFFS .........BUT THE DEBT HAS TO BE PAID .

 

 

If I am wrong I am sure someone will put this right

[ambershadow]

And a word of warning if you have a car move it Don't answer the door to them either they will tell you anything to get the money even try and enter your house By pushing past you then they have access so be very careful

[gizzmansl2]

thanks i hear what your saying but if the court denied me on the phone wont they do the same by letter? at this stage what would the bailiffs do, what can they do, sinse its the final notice when they visit next can they get in?

[gizzmansl2]

i dont have a car luckily and im not going to answer the door but like i said above because they say im not going to get any final warnings what does that mean? they will use force next time

[ambershadow]

I don't think they can force entry unless they have been in before,

 

As for the letter get writing and send a payment if you can this will be looked at, remember you only get phone clerks on the other end they don't know what the judge will say

 

call the local cab office if it's open they can help you

 

 

SEND A letter to bailiffs saying your not refusing to pay this debt But you by law don't have to pay them and will be paying the court direct.
