THe warrant empowers us to enter your porperty and sieze goods remover them and sell them at public auction. If you do not pay within 7 days it will be necessary etc etc.

The orignal offence dates according to them from 2010, i don't even rember getting the ticket tbh. Certainly didnt get any notyice that were taking me to court. I had been paying some parking fines and had finished paying them thought it was dealth with obviously not

[seanamarts]

have they been out to your house?

 

if not the amount you should be paying is the pcn amount plus letter cost (£11/14.00)

 

the amount is a bit steep.

[tecphobe]

No they havent been to my house i just wondered what i can do to sort this with out it costing me a fortune

[ploddertom]

Have you moved in the last couple of years?

[seanamarts]

you could try an out of time with the TEC.

[tecphobe]

Have you moved in the last couple of years?

 

I moved dec 2011

[tecphobe]

I payed off a debt for a parking ticket with excel in March for £269 at first letter stage.

 

Ive now been hit by red ballif letter for the total of £782 for what looks like two parking tickets.

 

There are no breakdown on the charges.

 

Now they're claiming that they can get locksmiths to let them in.

 

Now there's no way i have acess to that sort of money even thought i work

 

im a single parent receive tax credit etc.

 

What i want to know are the obliged to give me a breakdown of their charges.

 

Can they get locksmiths involved to force entry into my property.

 

Will they accept a payment plan?

 

Are they just trying to put the ****s on me

[wonkeydonkey]

is it for the same ticket ? have you got the receipt to say you paid in March ?

this sounds like a cock up or a chancer bailiff...they must have a warrant from the Court to enter your property and the only warrant they are likely to have is one signed by Enid Blyton, until they have that isssued by a magistrate they cannot break in with or without a locksmith.

 

Yes.... you must ask not only for a breakdown but evidence to the fine, if you know it is the one you paid then you have no worries...

The reference numbers that they have put on it are different from the one that i've payed 'ive got a reference for my payment and its on my bank statement . My main concern is that they will try and clamp my car which would leave me up the river for getting to work. Should i contact them i would imagine i cant just ignore this?

[wonkeydonkey]

It sounds as if there have been other parking tickets issued you may not know about and they have gone unpaid.....I would get that checked out?

I've Received a red Letter through the door today for 3 PCN's from Excel Civil Enforcement .

 

They are from about 12 months ago they were chasing at my old address.

 

This is the first correspondents that i've received.

 

They are demanding £946 in total

 

im unemployed and a single parent.

 

I need some advice i don't have the money to pay this outright.

 

I have a car it will seriously affect my ability to find work if they levy on my car.

 

There are no breakdown of fees just a demand for the total amount.

 

I would like to get the matter passed back to my local council to deal

so i can arrange a payment plan.

 

Can someone advise me how to proceed i think i qualify as a vulnerable person.

[tecphobe]

Guys any chance of a responce on this im desperate

[dx100uk]

who were the bailiffs

what happened

dx

[tecphobe]

The Company are Excel civil enforcement they are local authority parking charges on behalf of Cardiff Council. They letter itself is a red let in no envelope It says it a removal notice whatever that means

[tecphobe]

Can someone please advise im scared there going to just turn up and take my car

[dx100uk]

councils dont issue parking charge notices

they issue PENALTY charge notices.

 

sri for the confusion

 

excel are bailffs that act upon local authority PCN's

 

there is also excel private parking tickets [parking charge notices]

however as you mention cardiff council these must be PENALTY charge notices?

d100xUK...

This particular "Excel" are a firm of bailiffs but you are right in that there is also another Excel who are a private parking company.

 

This confusion is bound to increase when this awful Freedom Bill starts to take off.

 

Getting back to this particular problem.

 

All bailiff companies KNOW that they are not supposed to enforce a PCN at another address and instead,

they are supposed to advise the local authority that a new address has been identified and the LA should then reissue the Notice to Owner to you.

 

How many times the bailiff companies are told this but simply IGNORE the regulations!!!

 

At 8.30 you need to call the Traffic Enforcement Centre on 08457 045 007 and wait to speak to a member of staff.

 

Explain that you have received a letter from bailiffs at your current address and that all notices had gone to previous address.

 

The TEC will then email you an Out of Time Witness Statement to complete.

 

You will need one form for EACH PCN.

 

Your completed form MUST be sent back by EMAIL!!!!

 

Once received TEC will forward a copy by email to Cardiff and they in turn MUST contact Excel to CEASE ALL ENFORCEMENT.

 

This should happen some time this afternoon.

 

In the meantime, make SURE that your car is NOT around.

 

If you want to know what to put on the forms....please post back.

 

DO not speak to the bailiff.

 

He will be advised later today by his company.

[dx100uk]

thanks TT

 

lets hope the OP see this

hasn't been back yet

[tecphobe]

I'm on the phone to the TEC at the moment. What do i need to put on the forms ?

[tomtubby]

I will put some words togather for you. Firstly, when did you move and have you updated your records with DVLA?

 

How much roughly is your car worth and is it on finance?

[tecphobe]

Cars probably only worth a couple of hundred at best

 

I moved in December of last year

 

ive checked and it would appear that i forgot to update with DVLA.

 

There is no finance on the car its 9 years old however its vital in trying to get back into work and getting my son to school as i live in a semi rural area.

 

Would there be any benifit at this stage in completing a change of ownership details and putting it in someone else name
