I was fined in the magistrates court for unpaid car tax. I received a fine of £600 (I didn't attend court). As soon as I received the fine, I wrote to the court asking to pay in installments.
I didn't hear back so paid my monthly offered amount. I then received a letter from excel baliffs stating they were going to execute a distress warrant.....
I researched this and found a distress warrant can only be issued if means testing had taken place (which it clearly hasn't).
I then wrote back to the court stating this and to excel to inform them I would be contacting the court. All I got back from the court is a letter saying deal with the baliffs and a copy of a letter about payments which I didn't receive.
I have now had 2 baliff letters through my door...and also a letter from a company called M3PR - specialist enforcement removal specialists, who claim excel have told them to attend and remove goods. The baliff left a letter yesterday saying goods will be removed tomorrow.
Fees of £300 have also been added,so my £540 outstanding amount is now £840.
On Monday I will have the £540 and was intending to pay the court direct, but am now worried sick baliffs will appear tomorrow to take goods.
What should I do?
Apologies for the long first post too
