I take it that your main priority is getting back your belongings.

[worried parent]

This does sound wrong. Someone with more knowledge should be along to help soon.

[scatz1972]

If the debt isnt yours or in your name, I would call the police, surely its theft.

[postggj]

please slow down and offer as much info as you can for us to help

 

you will be able to get any goods etc back via a form 4 complaint to the county court where the baliffs are cirtificated,

 

they cant take goods and equipment esential for your job

 

but please, try and explain the circumstance of this baliff action

[lets fight bailiffs]

thanks i will try and explain in more detail

 

last year i bought a firm and withe way i did it was to take on the debt of the old owner so we sighned a contract to say i would pay £42000 off his debt to creditors and inland revinue,in the contract there was two vans and a F,L,T so i have had these for 8 months i insured them taxed them and gave both an m,o,t but here is where it gets tricky this guy has just played a massive [problem] on me it turned out that he had £132.000 in creditor debt and another £110.000 in credit card debt so we had already paid £42.000 and the another £30.000 just to keep the staff in there jobs but we could not carry on and our accountant advised that we had paid well over the agreed amount so the vans was ours.

we since found out that this guy had 10 ltd companies and had started up again from the same place.

when i contacted a solicitor he told me he new this guy and he was known for doing this (thanks for that just 8 months too late).

on monday 15th feb 09 i had a phonecall from my friends son and he said who was crying he said that the bailiffs where here to take the vans he told the high court officer that the vans was for my work had my only tools on and the other had our furniture on as we was just moving he told a desabled child that he had two minites to empty the vans or he would take them anyway (and he did just that) then he left this child sat crying in the garden.

he did not show any I.D and when i asked him in front of the police who he worked for he told me he did not work for any cow boy company he worked for the high court (this guy must be john wayn himself)

i have given sherforce all the evidence that these vans are ours even the inland revinue back me up on this one.

to make this even better i reported a brake in last year and told the police that the log books for the vans had been taken but could not prove who it was so the police could not do anything but when the bailiff turned up at this guys work he gave the bailiff the stolen log books

this debt is from 06 and not even in my name.

and the bailiff has been told not to talk to me anymore by his office

thay have broken the law in so many ways with this i want to get them struck off, i have not been able to work fortwo months and now my docter wants to put me on antydepresents.

sorry this is so long i just dont know what to do next.

[postggj]

this is awfull

 

i have ltd info on baliff powers but we have a member called tomtubby.

she is the master on baliff issues,

i know she looks in early morning so ime sending her a pm to have a look.

 

these cowboys need bringing to book and getting some decent comp for you,

 

like i said, she will best advise and ill keep looking in,

 

chin up,

 

you do get justice in the end but takes time

 

revenge is a dish best served cold

[lets fight bailiffs]

I took the bailiff to the police station and all i got was, this chap works for the high court he knows more than me (but that was a sivy who works beind the help desk (sorry did i say help) i dont think so

[postggj]

what you have to remember is that the police have not a clue on what a baliff can and cant do,

officially they are there just to stop a breach of the peace but 9 times out of ten just side with the baliff

 

you will get your revenge when they are called infront of a county court judge to explain there illegal actions,

 

like i said, my knowledge is ltd so ill hand over to tomtubby and good luck

[lets fight bailiffs]

thanks for that need all the help we can get right now

[lets fight bailiffs]

also been informed by a solisitor that sherforce should be struck off for this without any doubt, he as advised that it could cost £££, if anyone can confirm this i am prepaird to sell my car to do this so thay cant do this to anyone else

[caro]

See if there's anything on the OFT website that might help you. The Office of Fair Trading: Debt collection practices

[lets fight bailiffs]

contacted O.F.T and reported this and the fraudster just had a letter from on behalf of the secretary of state and it is been refured to a case officer

[caro]

Did you get any documentation from Sherforce when they took your things?

[lets fight bailiffs]

yes just a removal of goods inventory and even has the wrong address yet he came to my door

[caro]

I think it may be worth sending a SAR to see what information they have on you, and what charges they've added on for themselves.

[lets fight bailiffs]

that dont have anything on me and thay wont give me any info because its not my debt. however we have entured an interpleader but this has taken ove two months

[caro]

They must have something about you or they wouldn't have taken your goods. Something has led them to think they should get them from you, so if you can find out what that is, you'll know what you're fighting.

 

You hadn't previously mentioned the interpleader or that you'd already complained to the OFT. It's hard to advise what to do next without knowing what's happened already.

[lets fight bailiffs]

no until i called them they did not know who i was the debt thay have taken the stuff for is the last owners, and he had an old coppy of the log books and when thay turned up at his work to collect the debt he said these are my vans you can take these as payment.even though we showed them the new log books and proof of payment and a letter from the old owners wife saying that thay was ours

[caro]

Right, I'm with you now. Well it seems to me you've done all you can for the moment, but others may be better placed to offer more help.

[lets fight bailiffs]

P.S sorry i have complaind to everybody i can,but i dont seem to be getting any where i feel like im banging my head against a very hard brick wall

[caro]

The wheels of justice can be frustratingly slow at times. All I can suggest is that you keep chasing people up and remind them that all the time they prevaricate, you can't earn a living.

[lets fight bailiffs]

thanks, i know, but when you have two small children time is what i dont have.

please can you tell me if this was you would you go to the press

because they dont only have my vans and tools but my furniture as i was moving even when thay knew thay still took it
