They Have Also Levied on my car which isnt on HP but is only worth £500 less than the bill which they work out at £1200+ and i worked out at just shy of £1100!

did you check to see if bailiff is certificated this list is not 100% if there name does not appear on the list phone MOJ

 

the bailiff must be certificated to Bristow & Sutor or self employed if he is certificated to a different bailiff company he should not be collecting council tax for Bristow & Sutor

 

 

On line search to check if a Bailiff is Certificated

fees for notice of goods and inventory

when a bailiff is collecting for 2 or more years council tax

they amounts for each year are added together and worked out this way

walking possession fee £12

levy fee worked out like this

12½ per cent. on the first £100

4 per cent. on the next £400

2½ per cent. on the next £1,500,

1 per cent. on the next £8,000 and ¼ per cent. on any additional sum

it must be singed by the bailiff

no other fees can be added on same day as walking possession and levy

because the bailiff has done both separate he has increased his fee this is not allowed neither is the £24.50 fee

The bailiffs fees will be deducted from what you pay BEFORE the rest is remitted to the council - this means if you do not pay the bailiff fees as well the liability order will still be outstanding in part.

 

How many times have they visited ?

 

Max fees for visits without entry/valid levy are £42.50
