Bailiff Contact - previous occupier fun

[Deleted User]

Got home to a small looking hand delivered letter what turns out to be a warrant to remove goods for the woman who lived here previously. I kind of knew it was coming, could be one of many - my parents after some debating whether if it should go in a post box as it's in a plain marked envelope, think I should just contact the bailiff.!?

My questions are after 1, 'this first visit', when can I expect the baliff to be back round? I imagine it's a case of passport, council tax letter in my name and solicitor's correspondence from 2015 waiting by door? This is the only real logical thing I can think of.

2, In such a modern digital social media age and all this "it's never the property which is black listed only the person and their credit file", how do these experienced and knowledgeable experts chase someone who hasn't lived at an address for 2 years. A quick 10 minute search by us reveals this woman's current address not to far from here. How does it really get this far, why the courts not pick up on this.

This definately isn't my debt, for what I owe myself it's not in the figure this bailiff is looking to collect and I've grown sick of putting 'addressee gone away' letters in the post which had clearly no effect and I'm no expert - what will it take to remove this woman from my address?

Many thanks for any help.

You can place a notice of disassociation in your local newspaper notices section and send a copy with the letters.

To Whom Concerned :
The present occupiers of XX road XX town wish to place upon public record that the persons known as
Mr/ Mrs BLAH DE BLAH no longer resides at XX road XX town.
The occupiers request any company with interests in the financial matters of Mr/ Mrs xx cease and desist from contact the present occupiers.
These actions are causing alarm and distress.
Notice is served under the protection of harassment act 1997 section 1A


You can then take a copy of the notice to your local police station and ask to see the duty inspector and ask for assistance in enforcing the protection of harassment act 1997on people or persons refusing to adhere to the notice, which basically means banging on your door looking for the person you have notified them no longer resides there.

Having your id available is a good idea. If the court order was obtained at your address, that's the first port of call for the bailiff. If it's the court bailiff, they won't be too much bother and just report back to the claimant that there are no goods at the address.

Of course this might be an idiot bailiff from one of the private companies and if so I think I'd phone them - they can then go round to where the woman really lives.

Thanks no it's a County Court bailiff not private which sounds a relief then.

Parents were just panicy in case the property gets a charging order. I've explained over and over to them it's the individual credit file that gets or should be affected.

I'll phone Ipswich Court Monday and explain they have their facts wrong.

As you never seem to see these bailiff programmes where they get completely the wrong person as to what best to do so thanks again.

If everyone kept there doors locked, and there cars hidden, there would be no bailiff programs.

People always make the mistake of letting them in, at private property, for most types of debt, they cannot force entry.
