Merton Baliff

[Realhelp22]

I received an enforcement letter yesterday from Merton Council bailiff after I mixed an installment payment of £44 which I was suppose to pay at the end of September.

PCN/Liability order £237, Admin fees £75, Attendance costs £235, Total £547 . The previous amount I was to pay is £237 but now it has increased to £547.

You list pcn/Liability order - which is it as they are 2 separate things? When did you make the original instalment plan? How much was the original debt?

[Realhelp22]

At the beginning of September. I was suppose to pay £44 at the end of the month (September) but I just couldn't afford it

[Realhelp22]

PCN and Liability order, that's how it is written on the break down charges left by the bailiff through my letter box. and the original fee owed to the council is £237.

In order to provide an accurate answer it would help to know a bit more about this debt.

 

Do you know whether this is for a parking ticket or council tax?

 

When you made the payment arrangement was this because you received a Notice of Enforcement or did you receive a visit?

 

As a visit has now been made you are at risk of the bailiff taking a vehicle. Do you gave a car?

 

I am assuming that the bailiff has not been into your home...am I right?

It appears from the figures you provided that you had paid off £100 from the debt. How does that work out at to that exact figure when you are repaying at £44 per month?

Thanks for your reply

Sutton council tax that was passed onto Merton Bailiff. I made the arrangement because I received a letter of enforcement from the Merton bailiff towards the end of August that I have outstanding council tax that was passed to them that if I don't enter an payment agreement plan they will visit my property.

No bailiff has not been into the house

[Realhelp22]

it is £44 pounds for 7 month

[Realhelp22]

Please somebody advice, can the council tax be transfered to the Sutton council tax team because i don't want to deal with the bailiff at the moment.

[Bailiff Advice]

Will respond this evening to your post.

I've unapproved a couple of posts for repetition. If you have failed to stick to a repayment plan then it is hardly surprising the Enforcement Agent wants it all up front. You may try appealing to the better nature of the Council but I fear you will be fighting a losing battle. Do you have any illness or disability that may help you with vulnerability issues?

[Realhelp22]

No, but I have been out of work for a long time only just started working recently.

I have recieved a final notice letter from merton bailiff enforcement officer asking me to pay £310 . I have already paid the council, all i owed them. please someone advice, What do i do ?

I know that it is a lot of money for not [in your case] doing much, but the EA fees are enshrined in Law and are payable. Until you do pay the EAs will keep

coming back to your property and will remove your car or anything else they can lay their hands on.
