Sam2022 said:The cooker is actually only 5 years old but the grill doesn't work, I asked about getting it fixed but it was so expensive I said no. Washing machine is OK but I do need a decent tumble drier, living in a 2nd floor flat means no drying area. Fridge is fine works well but could do with a freezer.0

Sam2022 said:So I have been trying to do some research to become more knowledgeable about the whole bailiff thing and warrants etc.
I'm looking at following the advice about not engaging with the bailiff if they return, as it makes sense knowing they can't force there way in. Not that there is much to take if anything.
I was reading an article about debt covered by the CCA 1973, which all my debt is. I saw this which I have cut and paste- Restrictions on Consumer Credit Debts:Critically, for a debt arising from a consumer credit agreement, a writ or warrant of control cannot be used by the High Court or County Court Bailiffs to seize goods.
Am I misunderstanding the meaning of this? As it seems to suggest that the bailiff should not even be trying to recover the money?
Also not being tech savvy I don't know how to get the margin back to the left side!!
As things stand they can still use County Court.0 -
