How to stop the bailiff demanding money for council tax or business rates
Gordon Angelo, London W5
You remember I hired you last Monday?
I had a letter from the council this morning saying they are placing all
recovery action on hold and will allow direct payments against the arrears.
This means I don't have to pay baliff fees, LOL!
If the bailiffs are demanding money for unpaid council tax or rates, they will no doubt be demanded a large payment on the spot.
Even if you can prove you have made a payment to the bailiff company, they may not have passed the money onto the council and this gives rise to further visits and more bailiff bills, meaning that your nightmare is never over. See here: the bailiff scam.
A bailiff must be lawful, justifiable and proportionate in his acts and behaviour so don't give in.

The
alternative is to contact the Citizens Advice Bureau. They are very good
but you may have a long wait to get an appointment and they cannot represent
you in court or arbitration so you will have to contact a lawyer at some
point.
