The Council is under no legal requirement to remove an account from the bailiff and most wont unless it has been incorrectly issued to the bailiff - in 99% of cases people have more than enough time before the accountants gone to bailif stage to make suitable payment arrangements.

Where I work, you can phone and ask ,and if the offer is reasonable, ie proportionate to the debt and the time needed to repay, then we frequently are happy to agree and take the debt back from the Sheriff, however my council is in Scotland and the legislation and therefore practice can differ from England.
My motto is "If you don't ask.....

What have you got to lose?
