you must keep your doors locked at all times do not let him in tomorrow
do you if the local authority have a liability order against this debt ?
was he there as a debt collector or a bailiff (2 very different things) what paperwork did he leave you

Its everything to do with the council its there debt regardless of who is enforcing it

what council is it
what bailiff firm/debt collectors is it

I've asked a few other people to take a look. Hopefully they will this evening.

In the meantime have you called National Debtline freephone on 0808 808 4000? They can probably help.

See: http://www.nationaldebtline.co.uk/england_wales/factsheet.php?page=02_bailiffs_and_council_tax

Also may be worth asking here:

LegalBeagles - COURTS, BAILIFF'S and HARRASSMENT

or

CAG - Bailiffs and High Court Enforcement Officers

CIS

Poll Tax liability orders could be granted anywhere up to 20 years after the amount became due - once the order was granted then the monies are outstanding for as long as the council wishes to pursue the balance.

As mentioned above the council may have used a debt collector but its likely he is a bailiff with a much wider range of powers.

Did he take a list of goods when he was in the property ?

A point of note is he has only a letter claiming orders.
Lock doors and inform them they will not get anywhere until these "orders + warrants" they claim to hold are produced and served, if they can not, they are not bailiffs, just abusing the power of one.
If they claim to have warrants, make them produce them and instruct them they will be repelled until they do so.

A levy does not need to be signed , he can complete it without a signature.
