Hi All,
This is my 1st post but I need some concrete info regarding Jacob's balliffs and a unpaid PCN, which may I add is in my husbands name not mine.
The balliff office sent us a letter to our old address before we moved stating that a balliff was going to call, so I therefor rang the office to try and sort this out, not once did they ask my husbands authority for me to speak to them, and they said sorry we can't do anything, you have to wait for the balliff to visit, I protested as this I knew for certain would mean "costs". No they were adimant we had to wait, the balliff then visted 3 days before we moved house, my husband was not home, but he spoke to me, saying if it was paid that day it would have been £200 and something odd but if it was paid after 23rd july 2011 it would then be £313, which is the price I assume we now have to pay, we claim benefits, and have children all under 12 to support, I said to the balliff that we would pay £105 for 3 weeks to clear the debt, stupidly I know as we couldn't afford to do it, I have since received 2 texts and 6 missed calls from the balliff. HE HAS STILL NOT SEEN OR SPOKEN TO MY HUSABND!! I called him again on friday and told him the amounts we had to pay were stupid and would have put us in server hardship, he was not very polite, and told me he was sending a collections team on monday (which is tomorrow) I agrued that nothing in this house belonged to my husband, as I had all the belongings before we got together 5 years ago and the tenancy for the house is solely in my name, still he was not very polite, I then said that we wanted to pay in anstallment plan, as advised by the C A B, he told me that Jacobs don't go by C A B rules/ referals. So I said what am I supposed to do to the reply of I want £100 by monday (which is half my weekly income and yes I have put it away just in case) then £50 a week thereafter!!

I have been told that Jacobs do do payment plans for PCN's as do Rossendales and they are brilliant, had dealings with Rossendales before and they have been nothing but helpful and polite, but Jacobs are in a league of their own!!

We have 5 children, and the face of hardship is terrifying me

I don't know what to do and they can't take my husbands car as we have sold it anyways!!

NEED ADVICE ASAP
Thanks

go and see your local dbt advisor, they sorted everything out for me, i just ignore there emails and phone calls, they are not allowed in my house and take stuff as my stuff comes nowhere near the value of the bill, ignore them and the debt will be passed back x
