Help please !! bailiffs (equita)

iad77

Hi, Just came here looking for some help with a small problem i'm sure everyone has had before .... bailiffs ...

I'll keep it short,

2 parking tickets issued by Poole borough council, I disputed one of them but it was rejected. I was totally broke at the time and tried explaining to them but they just told me I had to pay. Charges both went up to 70.00 each then up to 135.00 ! each !!

I've now had a letter from Equita Bailiffs stating BAILIFF REMOVAL - I have called at your home today to execute a WARRANT issued by NORTHAMPTON COUNTY COURT.

I am authorised by the court under the enforcement of road traffic debts (certified bailiffs) regulations 1993 (amendments 2003) to remove your vehicle / household effects to satisfy your unpaid penalty charge notice due to Poole borough council.

If you fail to contact me within the next 24 hours i will have no alternative but to reattend your property AT ANY HOUR OF THE DAY OR NIGHT to impound your vehicle / remove goods.

THIS WILL RESULT IN SUBSTANTIAL EXTRA COSTS OF AT LEAST 140.00 BEING PAYABLE

To avoid any further action / bailiff costs please contact my mobile on 07823557642

Bailiff in charge




OK so I know about not letting him in no matter what. Do i need to hide my car ???! I live in a block of flats on the second floor and park on the street. but only in the night.

I want to pay this but to the council for the original charge. not 135.00 each thats crazy, I can barely pay my rent and electricity so cant afford that.

I'm working 13 hour days to try and make ends meet and really need some help ...

many many thanks

1- value of pcn is 105.00 + 7.00 court fees
2- equita is asking for 125.44

The strange thing is there are two tickets initial charge of 35.00 both went up to 70.00, but the TE3 form (order for recovery of unpaid penalty charge (parking) is only for one ticket at 112.00

hope that makes sense, also I received two (Take formal notice) letters from equita on the same date (I thought one for each ticket) but they are identical ... same date same ...

Confused .... Do you think I can get a payment plan from the council and refuse to deal with equita ??

Thanks again !
ref number same bailiff ref'
