CSA and the bailiffs...

    Thanks be to all who helped me in this matter.:T

    The bailiffs came around once more when I was at work and put a final notice through the door. It stated that next time they'd be back, they would remove the goods and sell them.

    I rang the CSA several times over the next few days and was passed from pillar to post. Not one of them took responsibility for the hassle. I received my requested account breakdown yesterday and it showed the amounts owed. Suffice to say that the pre-July 2000 amount was still there in black-and-white. I called again today and spoke to one of the most helpful women I've ever spoken to, nothing was too much trouble. She went digging deep and found out there had been an error on their part. Apparently she said I don't owe £2,800 but more likely around £300...:j :beer:

    Unbelievable. Lesser strong people than me might have either paid up or, worse case scenario, topped themselves. The CSA have a lot to answer for...it has good people in there but the system is screwed good and proper.

    She'll be sending the new amount through next week and they have withdrawn the case from the bailiffs. No more visits...:T :j
    RESULT _ seriously pleased for you! :T You must be delighted and so relieved
