Bailiff and DEbt harrasment

[R1stu]

Ok this is really upseting my GF and me, and I am at my witts end.

2009 I was caught speeding, and find, I paid the fine in installments. They lost the final payment. in 2010 a warrent was issued for my arresst and an officer was sent to my home address.

My then wife proved to the officer payment was made. by showing the bank statment to them with the refrerence on there and that was it, she left, and I have heard nothing since.

THEN! in Jan I reiceved a letter from the courts demanding the outstanding payment of £50.

I wrote to them saying this was paid on the 10th Jan 2010 and this was proven to the women officer issue to serve my warrent.

They then wrote to me again asking for the evidence, I explained to them this was 4years ago, and I no longer have this, and I have split from my wife, I advised them of the date, and the name of the account holder an email address used for payment.

I then recieved a letter from their collection agency with a bill for £125 for the costs and fine, I called them and got my partner to speak to them as I would have laid into them big style. They requested I needed to make contact by the 26th may to prevent further action. I sent two letters, one to the courts and one to the agency on the 20th May stating all of the facts.

Today the bailiffs have turned up on the door and have charged me £360 for the privilige.

This is now getting beyond a joke. I have requested the official complaints procedure from both parties and have advised them I will be charging them for my time.

Seeking legal advice from a solictor wont work as I cant afford it.
CAB will be contacted, but I have never had any help from them. so not holding out much help.

Any Ideas?

Ignore till you get summoned to court.

Provide details of the arrest warrant (May be able to get it on a data protection act request from the force that dealt with it).

The bank should still be able to get that statement also.

If it does go to court, counter claim for the costs of getting the information.

How the hell will I get the information from my exs bank though? I was solely in her name. I dont even think she has this account anymore, and I have asked her since Jan for this information again!

£350 fees for a £50 debt?

I thought the fees couldn't go above the original debt amount

Have the police got reccords from the officer coming to serve the warrant?

I would, in all seriousness, execute every last motherfucking one of the scum involved in this criminal extortion with a chainsaw.

Going too, was just on hold for 38minutes then cut off! The other half is dealing with the calls ATM, as I'm not in a fit state. Unfortunately nag debt helpline said I have to pay it if can't come up with evidence. As there word against mine, and court bailiffs are allowed forcefull entry

I'm reading this as being a court fine, and those are likely to be real bailiffs, acting as bullet headed agents of it.

So I'd get down to the court and speak to someone about it, face to face.

www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk have been a big help to me in the past, post your predicament there and im sure someone will be along to help before long.

A mate of mine is a bailiff, I've emailed him the link to this thread and asked him to look over it for you

[R1stu]

Ive recieved the offical complaints form for the police and filled in and returned, They are holding off bailiffs again for me to provide proof!

I have requested information on the dates and payment details for the payments they do have, so I can trace theses. Once I get this information then I can get to the correct bank.

If they cant supply me with this, then they cant keep records, then how can they prove I havent paid?

You need to fill out an official complaint enquiring as to why your original official complaint has not been responded to.
If after that they are slow to reply; threaten them with an official complaint !

Well they turned up again a few days ago (Marston) told me there is a warrant out for my arrest! I never heard from my official complaint within the given time, so assumed was over! but now, they are telling me there is a warrant out for my arrest!

However the weekend my daughter found the original letter from the courts from when I originally proved the payment, thanking me for providing the evidence! I am going to forward this back to them again!

You have the letter in your hand?

I would be inclined to take it to them personally (after making copies) and get confirmation from an actual bod to say they have called off the hounds.

Then buy your daughter a bloody nice thank-you present!
