Marstons wants over £1000

[brassnecked]

Sorry but I was making a general comment and I personally have not mentioned punctuation, tomtubby should know what she is doing, she does it for a living, and ploddetom is well informed also. I am happy you have had your problem sorted. so if I have issues with compiling WINE on Pardus X64, you may be the one to help......

[Mr_6]

Also, you are welcome to come to me for help, but if it entails dealing with WINE my only advice would be to get a proper computer.

Will be building an I7 based rig next possibly , AMD X4 965 @3.7ghz 8Gb Ram GTX460 3Tb of HDD dual boot Pardus Linux and Win 7 X64, at the moment WINE is useful for running MS apps without leaving Linux, but Wine at 12.5% vol is better:-)

Especially if it is a decent Chablis or Chateauneuf du Pape, mind you there's nowt wrong with Mr Henry Westons Vintage Cider either.

 

:lol:

I'm actually quite embarrassed to admit it but the only Wine I have ever tasted that I liked came from a can!

(it was american i think)

 

I'm a brandy drinker when I drink, which isn't often

(alcohol played a huge part in the fine I recieved back in 1999/2000)

Nice rig mate, btw: the tone of previous message was altered by the absense of a cheeky smiley.

 

Although I don't recommend installing OS's onto >1TB HDD the performance of them is always superseded by their smaller counterparts.

Infact with a rig like that I would probably stump up the money and have a go at SSD.

Pardus and Win 7 are on separate 500 Gb SATA 3 HDDs with 2 1 Tb drives for storage, I was thinking of SSDs for the OS but are abit too pricey at the minute, the money would be better spent on an X6 BE CPU for me.

 

ploddertom you are making me thirsty, a nice Chablis would nice around now, as for Westons Vintage nectar....

Perhaps you should of given more information with regards to your problem, you failed to mention in your first post that you had a medical condition, this would have got you a few more people advising on what you could of done regarding your matter.

TT had not given you wrong advice at all, just because the CAB gave you an alternative route to take and unlike us here we cannot call the bailiffs on your behalf. Why did you not go to them in the first place.

[Mr_6]

I see, good man(woman?)

 

I've seen far too many nice systems stifled by people installing the OS on terabyte harddrives along with hundreds of gig's of data, it's becoming quite a trending topic in some places.

 

 

One of the better options I know of to running WINE is getting an old laptop just to run the windows app's from.

This is obviously only economically practical if you just need to run basic app's that don't need too much muscle behind them.

[tomtubby]

I would advise anyone who reads this to get *proper* advice before acting on anything posted on this forum. Im sure they don't mean any malice, but ignorance can be worse sometimes.

 

Comments such as this are not at all helpful. If you read back on MANY posts you will see that regular posters her on the bailiff section will often ask for FURTHER information so that they can provide an adequate response.

 

Your initial post indictated that you had a fine that you knew about but that the immediate problem was your concern that the bailiff could remove your parents goods from the home. Despite it being the weekend, I responded to provide a rough draft of a Statutory Declaration.

 

If you had of ALSO made us aware that you had "vulnerability" issues, then I would have told you that your circumstances would appear to be classed as "vulnerable" according to the National Standards of Enforcement Agents. From experience, if proof is provided to Marston Group (as an example) this would enable them to return the Distress Warrant back to the court.

 

It may seem strange but a lot of people will "claim" to have a "vulnerability" issue and that is why bailiff companies will ask for some sort of proof and from experience, this should be sufficient to enable them to return the Warrant back to the Court.

 

A further point is that; if bailiff companies enforcing any debt merely returned Liability Orders or Distress Warrants back to thir client they would be criticised.

What you have to understand Mr_6, is that we are not here 24/7 and cannot always give you an answer or point you in the right direction straight away. Some of us are more knowledgeable than other and what they dont know some one else will. Most of us are not legally trained but what we do have in common is that we have all been shafted one way or another with regards to bailiffs.

In this part of the forum we deal in mainly bailiff matters not court matters, although some of us do know correct procedures etc because they have gone through it themselves. The information that is given to you is advice that you can either take or ignore.

Instead of coming back in here slating the people who have given you advise, why dont you tell us what 'proper' advice you were given so others can see it has been given correctly. As much as I admire CAB they do often get it wrong themselves. Also people can learn from what advise you have been given.

Did you happen to read my first post quoted above.

As for leaving posts thats not entirely true, the OP sees the advice given then often or not will converse with others in a private mail, to my knowledge this is always backed up by another poster in here who knows that field of questioning. No one is tied to this forum and if wrong advise is given some one more knowledgeable will come in and correct it. That is often stated in the thread.

A lot of things said in here are often said in jest and it is not meant to offend, unlike you have been calling people Nazi's which I find very offensive and uncalled for.

The OP is what many people rely on in here to answer your questions and if that is missing information then you may receive an answer that may be incorrect. People kindly come in here and help and most often are working and cannot spend a heap of time going through all of the thread and rely on the poster to give full and correct information.

No point in arguing with the situation, you have made your point, hopefully you have learned from it.

[jonjokes12]

the one thing i would suggest is just trying to keep on good terms on here. I love to argue and hate to be proved wrong, or disagreed with, however on here im happy to because the advice i hae been given is in valuable. Whilst i hope that i dont ever need to use these forums again once my ongoing case is finished with, no doubt i will in the near future and there is no other site like this.

 

Granted the CAB are a very good source of help and info, but they have no where near the collective knowledge you can gain on here, 24/7... If you had a problem at 9am on a sunday, this forum may help where the cab doesnt.

 

I just feel that even "wrong" advice on here should be welcomed, after all everyone is trying to help. Had you paid for the wrong advice you would have grounds to complain, but you came on here to try and get free advice which you had.

 

And personally i would be stunned if the bailiffs leave it at that, i imagine they will still want a stat dec saying nothing in that house is yours.

 

Anyway, as said previously i do hope you get this sorted, because everyone on here as a common goal which is to try and stop the bailiff and their illegal practices.

 

All the best

doesnt happen often, being wrong

the reason your on this site in the first place is because of two offences

1. Drunk and Disorderly

2. A mention of riding on the pavement.

 

I think you will find that in the eyes of the law that both of these offences would be considered as wrong. And the fact that the bailiffs are now involved would also suggest you have done something else wrong.

 

Maybe in your own little world your perfect, but i think the bigger picture shows your an arguementative person with a bad attitude. Granted you will come back with some witty response, but the fact that no one else on here has jumped to your defense must show that quite possibly this is another case of you being in the wrong

Except TT confirmed he/she could tell from my OP that I already knew about the debt. (which was the cusp of dx's flawed info)

 

Also, I never claimed I was in the right to do what I did back then. anyway; a drunk & disorderly and a riding on the pavement ticket in over 10yrs...

 

I would definitely not call that often, however I do accept I was wrong to do it, and it got proven.(even though i admitted it)

 

 

FYI: the original amount i was fined was much much more than the £1000 I owe now, I have paid bits (mostly in large chunks) over the years to reduce it to wher it is today.

 

Then my health failed me and I was unable to work.. then I found out I'm not sick enough in the DWP's eyes to get benefits for it.

I can't get jobseekers without looking for a job, but if I was fit to work I would have a job and wouldn't need jobseekers!!!

 

 

 

Also, as I admitted in the previous post that I am not wrong often; that implies that I am wrong sometimes, ergo, that excludes any possibility of me being perfect.

 

 

My attitude may appear "bad" to the people on the recieving end, however I prefer to call it being precise.

 

 

 

Was that witty enough for ya?

more than

out of interest, with you seeming knowledge of the computer industry, surely there's something you can do to generate income? Not in the slightest questioning your motives or reasons behind not working, just surprised that someone with a knowledge of I.T like you seem to have couldnt find suitable work.

Thats's a very good point mate, and in all honesty I woudl if i could, but it's so up and down for me at the minute that I couldn't even guarantee one whole day.

 

I've been looking into something that I could do myself from home but have not had any luck as of yet.

[brassnecked]

IT is a funny old game, and often, knowledge and ability is way ahead of paper qualifications, which cannot keep pace with developments add the governments acceptance of the EU imposing the employment of IT pros from Inja (the way the Major pronounced it on Fawlty Towers) and there is a shortage of jobs in the sector.

[tomtubby]

This will be my last post on this particular thread.

 

Everyone here on CAG is providing advice for FREE. In my case, [EDIT]. Therefore whatever free time any of us can give to anserwing queries is a bonus.

 

In the normal course of events, it would be ideal to read the ENTIRE thread BEFORE posting a response but frankly, in my case and many others on here as well, that would take up so much precious time. It is for this precise reason that I do not respond to threads that run to more than 2 or, at most...3 pages.

 

Thankfully, your problems has now been resolved, and there are many other people posting here on CAG who would like to be in the same position. This thread should now finish.

I echo TT.

A number of posts have been unapproved.

The CAG will not tolerate flaming,insulting or disruptive posts.
