Mystery 'Court Order' not Showing on Credit Reports(?)
Jon__2
Posts: 3 Newbie
Hello all,
After checking my most recent payslip, I noticed that I am having money deducted for a 'Court Order'. I have no idea what this relates to and, as far as I am aware, only owe money on one fairly modest credit card and my agreed overdraft (both under control and regularly paid into).
I have not received any letters from debt collectors and have certainly not received a court order.
I've tried two different credit reports and neither one is showing anything untoward (in fact, my rating was 'good' and above the national average).
How can I find out what this Court Order is for and how can I challenge it?? I don't know who I am supposed to owe money to and have no idea which court has placed the order.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Jon

It's probably for a completely different person, with a different name, different national insurance number and everything. Might be simpler to just go straight to contacting the local tax office.0

Why the tax office ????
Ask at your payroll dept first. They will tell you why it is being deducted.
Could it be council taxmake the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
and we will never, ever return.0 -

Yes sorry, talk to your company, I was thinking of wrong tax codes.0

Have emailed my agency (I'm a temp) and hope they can at least advise me where the money is going to. If I know what the Court Order relates to then I'll have a better chance of challenging it!
Shouldn't be Council Tax as I am up-to-date with my bills.
Thanks for the responses.0 -
If its a council tax attachment of earnings order it wouldn't show on a credit report but the payroll should be able to confirm for you as they'll have the paperwork.I no longer work in Council Tax Recovery but instead work as a specialist Council Tax paralegal assisting landlords and Council Tax payers with council tax disputes and valuation tribunals. My views are my own reading of the law and you should always check with the local authority in question.0
