its a magistrates court fine im just gonna ignore marstons till they pass it back to court

[scaff1]

i dont see much success on this website

[Guest wino]

Just be careful scaff1. If this goes back to the court there is a good possibility of an arrest warrant being issued for non payments of fines and unless you can pay in full to the court then a custodial sentance can be issued.

[scaff1]

its paid the court have refunded me the money cos the case was handed to marstons but i aint gonna cash the refunded cheque so they have my money i refuse to pay marstons a penny

[Guest wino]

How much are marstons fees?

[scaff1]

I have just read that on another thread. I think it was in the parking section. I will try and find it again.

[scaff1]

its on the hmcs website bailiffs coleecting for them can not collect no more than the fine so they can go whistle dixy i cant wait for one to knock on door hes gonna have a shock i ll tell you that for nothing specially if im having a bad day haha i dont think he ll be back after the first visit

[layer_cake]

Be careful scaff1.

 

They're horrible the way they carry on and push people and lie their heads off too, but just try and be calm and in control - and crucially aware of your rights. That'll scare them far more.

 

Re; your question at the top of this thread; It's sadly true that the bailiffs 'get away all too often'. They seem to lie through their teeth as a matter of course, like it's part of their training, riding roughshod over people, charging absolutely extortionate amounts and scaring the daylights out of many.

 

Some of these creatures are very sad indeed. Though I loathe what they do, I won't let them see it. A calm 'professional' "I know my rights and this is how we are going to proceed Mr Bailiff" approach is much better than losing your temper.

 

Trust me on that. Take care and best wishes to you.

 

PS; there is tons of very good - free - advice on here that will be of much help to you.

[scaff1]

they wont be pushing nothing on me dont worry about that and that wont get a penny out of me either lot of advice no success stories though

[layer_cake]

Good luck mate. make sure we here your success story

Sorry layer cake, not everyone who has a magistrates fine is a nice person, how do you know if the op has not been asked to pay compensation for mugging an old lady or robbing out of chatrity boxes?

 

This may not be the case, but there are many people out there who have beem awarded compensation, because of violence ect and if it means using bailiffs so be it!

[scaff1]

it was for a driving offence if you was wondering and i have no problem paying the fine just not to bailiffs

[layer_cake]

fair comment scaff! ditto.

[twonames]

I am assuming there was some problems for you not to be able to make an arrangement before it got to the bailiffs being issued with the warrant

[layer_cake]

twonames... are you a bailiff???

[Mr. Kipling]

Scaff. Have you got a receipt for paying direct to the court? You could use that (get a couple of photocopies) and show it to any bailiffs who turn up. Also you should video their reaction and post a link to the video. I could do with a laugh...

[paulson1985]

If the court has sent your payment back send it back to the court saying you refuse to cash it and as far as you are concerned the fine is paid.

 

Point out in a letter there is no contract between yourself and the bailliffs to pay there fees.

[China.Blue]

I have refused to pay a single penny to a bailff who threatened all kinds of nonsense. I told him he could do what he wanted regardless of the consequences , but he was getting sweet FA from me. So much here and so much there if I didn't do this or didn't do that , but I stood my ground , and basicaly told him to go and " make love to himself ". Mine was for CT and is now sorted out after coming to an arrangement directly with the council. If more people told these crab lice to GFT's , then eventualy they would get the message that the scare tactics and intimidation would get them nowhere. I realise however that there are people who just wouldn't be able to take such measures , and it is these people this **** feed upon. That is why this forum is so important to many.
