Not yet, thank you, I am just amending the template now to suit me and then I will be posting it, Its just really frightened me, this was £50 that I didn't know I owed until after I was made redundant, im not sure where its come from as the time when I have gone into arrears with them, I was unemployed and my council tax was being paid. Its all so confusing. Its gone from £50 to a possible £300 in such a small space of time

I have just spoken to the council and the gentleman I spoke to said once its been passed to an enforcement agency, it stays with them until the accounts been settled, he said there is no way of me settling it with them directly. Is this true?

Hi, about 3 weeks ago a bailiff came to our property to "recover" £50 owed to council tax, I didn't have it because I was made redundant in February and I am 29 weeks pregnant so have been pretty much unemployable, though I have tried. We managed to set up a payment plan which would be £20 every fortnight, paid on a payment card and he said I would receive one through the post then had to start doing it. I didn't receive any card and to be quite honest I pushed it to the back of my mind as I have been trying to get the things I needed for my baby, my partner is working but he doesn't earn a lot and it has been hard paying everything. He gets just over £200 a week and out of that £100 goes a side for rent, £25 for council tax, the rest goes on other bills (gas, electric & food) The payment card never came through and today I received a letter saying I had defaulted on the payment and there for it has been raised to £198.37, this has gone up because I have defaulted on payments and ignored a letter. I rang them up and explained I hadn't received a payment card yet and had a very rude women on the phone who told me I should have found an alternative method to pay them by and I have till Monday to put £40 in there bank card why I wait for a payment card to pay the rest off. She also said that because my partner is working we have to up our payments and I explained that we just cant afford any more than we are paying and she said "that's not our problem, lend it off somebody" She has given me 7 days to provide proof of benefit?? I am on no benefits and I tried explaining this to her, she said if I cant provide proof of benefits and I cant pay the full amount off within the 7 days then bailiffs will be attending my property and seizing goods, whether we are paying the £20 a fortnight or not, she also said if we don't pay it in full and bailiffs come out then our total will go up to just over £300, then they will add extra on for selling our goods?? All this off a debt of £50 from 2 years ago which im trying to pay off!!.. What are my rights as I really don't need this stress at the moment, im classed as high risk as it is and have been put on bed rest till the end of my pregnancy. im really scared! please advise!

Today's meant to be the day.. But unfortunately it doesn't look that way. I was meant to get a phonecall first thing with a delivery time which I didn't get. I've waited until now + rang, the girl on the end of the phone said my account didn't say I was having a delivery she said who told you so I said Elaine and the man who took my payment. Too which I got told 1 minute let me see what I can do she put me on hold that was 32 minutes ago! Still on hold waiting.

Ok so if i research on the internet regulations and put together a rough letter if i post it on here will you read it to make sure its worded properly, i wouldnt have the first idea where to start. I am going CAB on Monday so if i take my HP Agreements and letters with the insurance details ans a print off of the emails which say its compulsory should they be able to guide me in the right direction. I can deal with them being threatening and pushy as long as they dont send people round to my house, im not good with face to face confrontation. this wont happen will it?
