"Following the publication of this report these three industry leaders are arranging an important one-day conference at the House of Lords on the 24th November 2011. At this event MP’s and Local Authority Officers will hear the experts discuss the impact of local authority mismanagement on the industry’s credibility. Topics for discussion are:"

 

So where is my invite then? I`m sure I can assist in this little gathering:-)

[rebel11]

I wonder if Mr. Boast will be invited?

He will probably be the guest speaker, or will lead them in a rendition of Y.M.C.A. to enthuse them as he has a monster 'tache, which he reckoned frightened Indians

Maybe a career in the SAS beckons, the way he climbed over those fences:lol:

Mr. Boast is merely the monkey. His employer whislt spouting verbal also profited from his actions for 3 years+ at 60% of his fees. Her firm (And many others) will claim that Boast is a "Black sheep" although we all know that without loads of" Boasts", these firms would have no businesses at all.

 

If any Bailiff firms wish to argue this.....I await you all with open arms (With some knowledge that may spook you all)!!!

 

Bring it on chaps.

I'll bet the character who you use for your avatar, Quagmire, would want to bed her for spite.

 

Even Quagmire has standards....

[turnedworm]

I watched last night - I'd love 10mins with Mr Boast to put him straight on a couple of points!

 

 

From watching, and some personal experiences, I'd like to find out the answers to a couple of points raised.

 

We were told that there are 6 million people visited each year - and the majority for council tax. That's an awful lot of money in penalty fines by the councils for late payment. As I understand it the courts just rubber stamp the orders - does the remainder go to the council? A good source of income from people being poor!

 

The other point is about overcharging by the Bailiffs. As they take payments from credit cards etc "the office" must know what is being charged vs what should be legally charged. So the issue cannot be blamed on rogue bailiffs at all.

You are right, even Quagmire wouldn't touch that one, she looked like she was dressed for halloween,

I'm not sure what to make of last night's programme and, like others, felt that for many who have never dealt with bailiffs, this will just look like a one off case from a single company. I felt it fell short on many aspects but, as was mentioned in an earlier post, perhaps it would make a good series where things could be looked into in more depth.

 

I felt that the woman running the company just wanted to pass the buck and make it look like she didn't know what was going on. Pathetic! Does she seriously expect us to believe that she doesn't know what her staff are up to? If she doesn't, then she should resign because she obviously isn't very good at her job and isn't prepared to take responsibility for the actions of her staff.

 

It was quite amusing watching Mr Boast trying to justify himself and deny things he had said and done. Frankly, I think he just dug an even deeper hole for himself. As for saying that he was 'from up north' as a way of justifying his ignorance, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. There's nothing like trying to drag your own community back into the dark ages with you. Wonder what he is doing now? Expect there is some debt collector out there prepared to employ him as a doorstep collector.

[wonkeydonkey]

I doubt he will get a job as debt collector or another bailiff company to employ him. as a debt collector he will have as much power as duff light bulb and no bailiff firm will have the bottle to see his name associated with them.

If the paperwork matches the fees then the office wont be to bothered about it either.

[seanamarts]

I wonder if Lady Rossers will make an appearance on the forums, she knows we are here. Then again she is no better than her bailiffs as she seems to live in their world of make believe.

If she had any balls she would at least address this forum to why her bailiffs act so unlawfully. She knows they do. It wouldnt surprise me that sir boasts a lot still works for her in some way or another. Ooo I feel a cartoon coming on

BF I would love to review John's book on Amazon as I truly think it is very consumer friendly...but...I am denied the chance unless I make a purchase from them ? so I regret to say I can only tell everyone how good the book is on CAG ....and reiterate it is very consumer friendly

No. you don't have to have bought the item through Amazon. You will need to have regsitered with Amazon, though and be logged. However, after that you can write reviews of any product they sell

[x bailiff]

The part that got me was where the moron mentioned something about hittng someone in the throat using two knuckles. He would get more than two knuckles if he came to my home.

Story tellers is what alot of bailiffs are, big themselves up with passed on stories and get their egos massaged by any fool who wants to listen.

[x bailiff]

hmmm thats a tough one.... I would say either Marstons or JBW 3rd choice would be Rossendale

They are all as bad as eachother in different ways

[outlawla]

Phantom visits, invented fees and illegal levying are all crimes that the authorities pretend are not happening, maybe now it will be harder for them to continue this denial.

 

When the true scale of this is uncovered, which looks increasingly likely, as MP's, National Press and TV documentary makers are all taking an interest, the authorities and private bailiff firms must be set to lose £millions in compensation for the wide spread fraud and corruption that has been allowed to go on by our councils, Magistrates' courts and Police.

Its been happening for years and theres been no change as I can recall many a year ago that a partner at the bailiff company I worked for took edited and MP out for lunch and not for the 1st time, this is when we had the dreaded poll tax. Money brings power and gives you a different circle of contacts in higher places to get what you want and them like luxury holidays, cruises, conservatories, new cars, job for the kids, old cliche but its not what you know but who!

If you have had any direct expserience of mistreatment by a bailiff or you have suffeed excessive and unlawful bailiff charges, the Sunday Times would like to talk with you.

 

If you would like to talk to the Sunday Times about this, please email me on our admin address (click the admin link).

 

Please put Sunday Times in the subject

URGENT!

What is the credibility of Philip Evans and Jamie Waller speaking to MPs and councils when JBW was shown on National TV to have relentlessly pursued a brain injured man and clamped his car?

 

Philip Evans was until recently business development manager at JBW. It doesn't tell you in the white paper that Philip Evans used to work for JBW.

 

I have emailed the entire Parliamentary Justice watch team with this information and asked if they could arrange for me, as aclose relative of a victim WHO DIED at the hands of a bailiff, to be present at this dubious Forum. No guesses at what response I will get.

[spamheed]

Another "Documentary" which completely misses the point,

 

Boast is a T*$$er who would brick himself if he had to face up to someone who could fight back, it is always easy to act hard in front of people who cower, less so when they have some fight in them.

 

The whole program was designed solely for deniability, it was a one off, one rogue operator. the whole system is crooked from the lowlifes who kick in pensioners doors right up to the shareholding MP's - councils should be forced to deal with such matters in house and employ their own enforcement people, then they could not hide behind the whole "he doesn't work for us" argument

If you want first hand evidence, Google Andy Miller or Accrington pensioner bailiff.

Andy had not lived with his family for over a year because, unbeknown to his children or his common law wife, he was in the onset of either dementia or Alzheimers. The fact that he made himself homeless and confided NOT with his brothers or any other members of his family, speaks volumes. That he attended court without representation smacks at something sinister as he would have had support both financial and legal. One of the senior public defence solicitors in the court is a well respected advocate and a former in-law. That no-one knew of Mr Millers situation says everything about his mental state and a lot about the Nolan rules that were so violated and lead to his death on the streets of Accrington. There is always more than illicit operator within the Justice system wish you to learn.

You are being given a chance to SPEAK OUT further as the post suggests by contacting the Sunday Times with this experience have you done so?
