Hi all having a few problems
Had a liability order against me and the OH I accept no probs,
I have defaulted on the agreement with the council as money dried up and had to choose between food and heat or paying, I have paid just over 1/3 £950.00 remains
They have given me 14 days from 15-12-10 to pay in full.or they will pass to the Baliffs.
they go on to tell be about the Admin & enforcement act amended 2006
From what I have read on the forum this does not sound right.( some is but not all)
1st no distress 24.50
2nd 18.00
leveying distress 24.50 for 1st 100
24% 100-400
4% 400-1500
no need to go on as £950
then Walking Possession 12.00
Close Possession 15.00 per day
it says these are fix by law
at the end it states If the baliffs are unsucessful, the council will make an application to the court for your comimtal to prison,
It is not that I won't pay it's I can not pay at the moment until the money cones in.
The other thing at the start of the letter it states Various properties year outstanding 2010.
I don't have or owe for any other property, so what is that about.
Questions
1- Can they charge all of the above, I undestand some of them,
but not the close possession @ £15.00 per day.
2- And what of the chances of being sent to prison.
3-what is the variuos property's about?
4- do they have to give me more time as there are some bank hols in between.
Hope some one can help, as just found out the OH is expecting,
It's alright for these people in recovery they get there monthly wage, sometime I get no payment or very little for 2-3 months at a time.
Thanks in advance
