Council tax, no such fee is allowed.

 

Parking tickets regulations (The Enforcement of Road Traffic Debts (Certificated Bailiffs) Regulations 1993) provides for reasonable costs for bringing a van to an address with a view to transporting goods belonging to the debtor in it. If no goods belonging to the debtor are transported in the van or the van is owned by the bailiff or his firm and he has already charged the debtor a separate visit fee as prescribed elsewhere in the regulations then reasonable costs = £0.00. Operative word is costs, its not a fee.

What is exactly your problem with them ?

Check out my thread on page 2 can some one post council tax regulation and enforcment link can't remember but I thought I read they can charge resonable costs when no goods are moved please help I'm getting confused now

[bailiffbasher69]

Ok guys had a letter from Equita saying why a £130 enforcment fee was charged they say a bailiff called with a van with a view to remove goods it says {where following the levy where goods are not removed} these atendance charges are coverd under header c of the council tax administration and enforcement regulations is this right please help none of my goods were actuly moved and never have been thanks guys

Ok cool to try and cut a long story short a bailiff came to my home 1st and 2nd time then some months later came again then applied a levy on a car parked outside and charged me for that levy then some weeks later came back with a vehicle with a view to remove goods they say. i have had a copy of the form 7 and it shows the car + key and documents it says. now this IS infact an invalid levy they have acknolaged this but i am trying to prove fraud as I KNOW no bailiff came with a flat bed or car transporter to take the car away so whats my next move

thanks all

ask them to prove the visit - they won't be able to

[bailiffbasher69]

But for them to say sorry seems we cant prove the visit does not constitute fraud

[bailiffbasher69]

Also what about levy and atending to remove on the same day is this alowed thx again guys

[tottys]

no they cant make the two charges on the same day or so i have been told
