Ripped off customer

get this information from the council you should be able to get this over the phone so have a pen/paper ready

 

1 - how many Liability Orders they have against you

2 - the dates they were obtained

3 - the addresses they were for

4 - the period of time each covers

5 - how much each one was for

6 - how much is still outstanding

7 - the dates they were passed on for enforcement

 

 

 

 

what council is it ?

what bailiff firm is it?

 

tell us exactly what goods have been written on all notice of seizure's

council tax outstanding balance and fees charged on all notice of seizure's

dates of all notice of seizure's

[hallowitch]

can you tell us council tax outstanding balance and fees charged on all notice of seizure's

dates of all notice of seizure's

 

was the account you paid in full paid before they levied your goods the 2nd time

 

the answerers to these questions are important because if goods are already subject to a levy they cant be levied again

the dates of the Levy's outstanding balance to the council and fees charged are also important it helps us work out if the Levy's were charged correct

[hallowitch]

first notice was for £423.91 plus £74.50 fees which now totals £522.91 (could he not add up) £498.41 over charged £24.50

a levy fee on a debt of £423.91 is £37.50 the walking possession fee is £12 (if you signed the WPA) total £49.50 not £74.50

 

second notice for £498.16 plus fees of £76.50 which now totals £592.66 (ditto) £574.66 over charged £18

levy fee £41 walking possession £12

 

your bailiff may get away with one of the Levy's being lawful but not them both as they can only levy your goods once multiple fees/Levy's are not allowed to be charged the same day

 

This amount was for £590.82 plus £102 fees which totals £694.82 (could not add up) £2 over charged

this levy is unlawful because goods are subject to a previous levy

 

as you can see you have well and truly done over not only with the fees charged but also with the multiple Levy's

 

before we can take this further we need the information from Jacobs (breakdown of fees )

 

you say that some this is for a previous address the questions you have to ask the council need to done to confirm you have not been charged for a period after you moved out the property and also the liability order amounts are correct

 

your bailiff has been very bad he should have broken down the fees as in

 

previous visit fees £xxx

levy fee £xxx

walking possession fee £xxx

 

is your bailiff certificated to Jacobs

I was told to expect a payment card through the post to pay at a paypoint or post office

I waited for the card to arrive which missed the due date for payment and was sent three letters telling me I had broken the arrangement and needed to pay all the outstanding amount otherwise the bailiff would come round to seize my goods

 

and i can bet you have been charged a van/attendance fee on one or both accounts because of this
