Hello all, what tactics can I expect from Marston Recovery after they have hand delivered a Final Notice and put it through my letter box?
Any help to understand this subspecies much appreciated.
This is for alleged Council tax arrears, we are in dispute both with Council and Marston Holdings Limited over the alleged debt. No paperwork received so far about the alleged debt from neither.
. They ignore our complaints.
Today we sent letters to their Directors and Secretary listed on companies house website, as we are a vulnerable family in a vulnerable situation.
Thank you admin for all the good advice on the website.
Please let us know what tactics they employ in Eastbourne area, thank you in advance.
Marston Recovery Final Notice Eastbourne
Re: Marston Recovery Final Notice Eastbourne
There is no statutory document called a final notice in enforcement regulations.
It could well be a phishing letter. A method of finding out if the target debtor lives at the address and gets a reaction.
Council tax disputes must be taken up with the council as a stage 1 formal complaint with a request to suspend enforcement until further order.
Bailiffs and their firms do not have the authority to vary a liability order.
Vulnerable debtors are exempt from enforcement stage fees unless the bailiff has withdrawn from the property to get advice about the enforcement power.
That sounds as clear as mud, but it really means bailiffs cannot recover enforcement stage fees £235 if they take control of goods without giving the debtor breathing space.
Your stage 1 complaint should set out why the council trax id disputed and by how much. You can tell them on what dates you lived at the charge address and they will give an amended bill.
After that, you can do a change of circumstances and pay the remainder in instalments which gets the bailiff off your back and their fees to boot.
