It sounds like they had you marked as vulnerable and shouldn't have sent your case to bailiffs in the first place.
Have the £305 bailiff fees been removed from your account? If not, you should push for that, and ask your local councillor to help if any problem.0 -
Hi, rich_shot
It's great that you're getting this sorted. The Bailiffs are not allowed to remove certain goods, like a sofa, if this helps. Have you been claiming council tax benefit??0 -

Yes been claiming CTB but we have to pay a % as in our area no one gets the full CTB.0 -

No the fees are still on the account but i doubt very much they will take them off now.0 -
I'm guessing they will if they made a mistake. There's no harm in trying.Debt As Of 19/3/2021: £16,973 | Current Debt: £9,322 | 54.9% Repaid0
