Dear members, please help, totally desperate!
Yesterday Whyte and Co took my company van and want £1200 or they will sell at auction by 15th march.
They say it is for 2 unpaid parking fines going back to July 2013.
I was not aware of any of these,
they must have been sending letters to my old address that the van is registered at!
Me and my brother have set up a small ltd company and are electricians,
the van was bought in the company's name and we can not do business without it.
The registered van address is my ex family home.
My relationship with partner of 8 years went horribly wrong
and I was forced to leave and sleep on sofas of family and friends.
I have two children and was hoping things with partner will change hence never got myself a permanent new address,
and with everything that was going on I did not realise I had to change the log book address, just forgot.
Unfortunately,
I had to leave the UK in December and due to impending possible war here I couldn't get out of the country I am staying in,
I will finally be travelling back in a couple of weeks!
In the meantime, my partners alcoholism got worse and the kids are now under police protection!
Not only did she ruin hers and kids life, it seems she has ruined my business too by withholding important mail
and hacking in to my emails and social accounts!
I should have known better!
I left the van near my aunts place and asked her to keep an eye on it,
she told me it was taken yesterday!
Since I lost business and been out of the country I don't have the money to pay the bailiffs
but need my van for when I am back as I have to work to support my kids who I will be solely responsible for!
If I don't get the van, I can not work and will have to go on benefits which I really don't want to do!
I offered the bailiffs to repay in installments but they refused!
What can I do,
how can I stop the van going in to auction?
It is full of my tools and equipment! I need it!
My life depends on it!
