    And if you do have to speak to him record the call because he like all bailiffs will have a very selective memory

    personally i would call him (recored) and inform him that you have now taken advice and you will not be paying this fine for your daughter and any further visits or letters to your employer or your landlord will result in a formal complaint to the court manager and possibly a form 4 complaint to the court he was certificated at (you can check here to see if he is certificated)

    I am not an expert I am self taught i have no legal training any information I post is based on my own personal experience and information gained from other web sites


    If you are in any doubt please seek legal/expert advice help

    I've been probably watching too many movies here, but did he look legit?

    Did he have paperwork pertaining to owed monies and stuff?

    Which make it even more worrying that his behaviour is in complete breach of the rules governing his business and other laws.
