Here to give any help or advice at all about Jacobs Bailiffs.

I thought it was about time I just come out and say who I used to be employed by, otherwise some of my posts will be a little irrelevant.

So, basically, if anybody has any problems at all with Jacobs or just needs some advice then let me know because I know their methods inside out. I'm happy to let anyone know anything they want to know. All I want is for people to stop getting ripped off by any company but obviously I know a lot more about Jacobs than any other.

Oh and just to explain, it's not actually a company but a 'partnership' with three partners in control.

I'm here should anyone need to know anything.

Did you know a bailiff by the name of Mr McCl******?

Hi there,

Could you answer the following question:

Jacobs arrived at my husband's pbusiness premises and asked him to sign a Walking Possession Agreement stating quite clearly that goods would remain on the premises for five days. The debt was for business rates which he offered to pay on the day, but the council refused (they have since lied about this). Jacobs then proceeded to hike up the bill by several hundred pounds and stripped the premises of £20k worth of equipment (for a debt which originally stood at less than £500), preventing my husband from running his business. Are they legally entitled to do this?

I am at my wit's end because it seems clear to me that they acted illegally, but the council are refusing to admit liability, even though they employ these neanderthals. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks,

Jemima

A lot depends on whether your mother PREVIOUSLY allowed a bailiff to come into her home and levy upon goods which would have been recorded on a Walking Possession.

 

If yes...then a bailiff COULD return back to remove those goods listed on the Walking Possession. HOWEVER....was there anything in writing from the bailiff co to advise your mother that payments had to be made on a specific date and warning of the consequences if a late payment had been made.

 

If the bailiff has never previously been into the home and no goods have been levied upon then the bailiff cannot do anything. However you need to ENSURE that a car is not outside your home.
