    There have not been any 'bailiffs' since 2014 they are now called enforcement agents and high court enforcement officers. Where does it state anywhere in the act that it is mandatory to pay council tax?

      That's absolutely right, they're now officially called enforcement agents, but everyone still knows them as bailiffs.

      In some cases the High Court aren't required to send a letter in advance, typically with property repossessions, this is just how the court work and operate. It is legal to not send a letter in certain circumstances. High Court Enforcement Agents can gain access to the property/properties named on the WRIT through an unlocked door. meaning if you have the back door open or unlocked, they are allowed to open the door to gain access to the property. They are not allowed to force entry unless stated on the WRIT which will usually involve a lock smith.

    Good morning I paid a high court writ. In full. I dident see the high court officer I wasn’t in so I contacted him. He said I had until 5 o’clock to pay the £1883 so I rang him said could I pay £1000 now then £883 next week as I had a mortgage payment comeing out , he said no now that you told me your refusing to pay we have to add £495 pounds on , because you haven’t paid the £1883 but I said well what if I could pay the £1883 by 5 o’clock he said no because you told me you are refusing, I said I’m not refusing I’m telling you my circumstances, present. So if I do pay £1883 by 5 o’clock that doesn’t matter then. This is madness I said. Well I did pay the £1883 by 5 o’clock so it’s infare to just another £495 which I don’t have ? What shall I do

    • @Jumbotsu
      @Jumbotsu 2 месяца назад +1

      They are not instructed to arrange a settlement per say. They are actually there to clear payment in full or remove goods to the value of the debt. Its a common enforcement tactic to decline the first offer in the hopes you will offer more upfront. Remember, they are not there to come to a payment plan. they are there to get that money out right, only in certain circumstances can they try and arrange a payment plan. Usually this depends on the claimant whether or not they choose to accept the payment plan or want the balance cleared in full.

      @ hello again. So I’ve arrived home and my wife said a high court inforcement officer different guy this time same company Wilson roe said I ow £1020 now. She said my husband paid the debt in full but he said I ow this. Money on top of the money I paid in full by there terms I’m confused it’s very stressful they just seem to be a menace now. What should I do. ? Thank you Lee

    • @Jumbotsu
      @Jumbotsu 2 месяца назад

      @leemcgowan2050 Hi Lee, first you need to ensure the officers are genuine as with the writ. If you have any paperwork from the prior visit, you can cross reference with that. You can go to debt charities to get them to help you aswell. what you need to do is provide bank statements where they prove your payments to the claimant. if you are confused about the debt outstanding, you can either call the company office or ask the officers to call the company office to find out more information about it for you. If you set up a payment plan and default on payments, they are entitled to return demanding full balance cleared that day. Did you make any agreements last time? Payment plan, a review of the plan? It's entirely circumstantial. The best thing I can recommend is to call the agency and ask for more information as you have already cleared a debt from that claimant.

    Careful everyone, the information in this vid is vague. Civil debt is not the same as court fines and court bailiffs (not saying the poster isn't aware of this by the way)
    No mention of tri party agreements, 'Deed of Assignment' from the credit Originator, non contract with third parties, civil debt or non mayment of fines after a court case (CCJ), EX96 form...
    Criminal Justice and Courts Act 2015 - Section 26- Police must not assist a civil 'Debt Collector' by any means... 'improper use or known improper use of police powers to the advantage of himself or to the avantage or detriment of any other person' (police constable can only be present in a civil matter to prevent breach of the peace and under common law as any person)
    County and Magistrates Courts Act 1984 Section 135 - Penalty for falsely claiming to act under authority of a court. Any person who- (a) Delivers or causes to be delivered to any person falsely purporting to be a copy of any summons, warrant or other process of a court, knowing it to be false, or (b) Acts to profess to act under false colour or pretence of the process or authority of a court, shall be guilty of an offence and shall for each offence be liable on conviction on indictment to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 7 years”...
    Always ask for a copy of the 'warrant' to check and contact the court for the alleged 'claim'.
    Administration Act 1970 Section 40 (1) makes it a Criminal Offence for a creditor or a creditor’s agent (often a ‘debt collector) to make demands (for money), which are aimed at causing alarm, distress or humiliation, because of their frequency or publicity or manner.
    Equally, a debt collector/bailiff will be committing an offence if they falsely imply that non-payment of the debt will lead to criminal proceedings; or the debt collector/bailiff pretends to be someone they are not e.g. a court official or court bailiff. It is also an offence to send or present to a person a document which looks like it has been sent from a court.
    Tribunals Courts and Enforcement Act 2007 Schedule 12 Section 26 (1)- The enforcement agent/debt collector/bailiff must on request show the debtor and any person who appears to him to be in charge of the premises evidence of-
    (a)his identity, and (b)his authority to enter the premises.
    (2)The request may be made before the enforcement agent enters the premises or while he is there.
    Protection From Harassment Act 1997 Section 4 - Putting people in fear of violence.
    (1) A person whose course of conduct causes another to fear, on at least two occasions, that violence will be used against him is guilty of an offence if he knows or ought to know that his course of conduct will cause the other so to fear on each of those occasions.
    A 'Warrant of Control ' cannot, lawfully be produced for a CIVIL MATTER... (posessions-only after a CCJ)
    5. Criminal Law Act 1977 Section 6 - Subject to the following provisions of this section, any person who, without lawful authority, uses or threatens violence for the purpose of securing entry into any premises for himself or for any other person is guilty of an offence, provided that-(a)there is someone present on those premises at the time who is opposed to the entry which the violence is intended to secure; and (b)the person using or threatening the violence knows that that is the case.
