    And I agree with pepe - it's probably a review. Don't forget it's their job to make you feel frightened. (Actually -sorry to the nice bailiffs out there 'cos I had dealings with one who was fab, it was just all the others!)

    Listen hun that is what they said to me. Take advice from Herbie and act on it to the letter because she knows her stuff. I will say that councils will in certain circs take the debt back. This is what happened to me. I got it on vulnerability grounds, but I am sure that there are other grounds for them taking it back. Don't give up with the council. I went in and spoke to an adviser at my local town hall. They seem more willing to help when you have personal interaction with them.

    Do that because they have to act on a code of practice. If they have agreed something with you, given that they are acting on behalf of your local authority, I wouldn't have thought that they could renege on the arrangement.

    This worries me - did you sign a WPO or levy?
