"Go to yer local cop shop and explain to them about your predicament. There's no way I would pay that much for a minor traffic misdemeanor. " ^^This that is rather mental | |||
| |||
"Mental yes,and very true.i am in shock,didnt think or know they can do this." I think they are just trying their luck, either way I would sort it asap and don't let it get out of hand  | |||

"Seems extortionate for 7.93." Yep, i'd look into it. | |||

"Offer to pay the £7.93 if they say you now owe them more because you didnt have card payment available over the phone then ask them to put that in writing to you but explain that you will let them take the matter to court once you have the letter. Also write to them, via recored delivery, and explain in detail what has happened and your offer to pay the £7.93 they will soon shut up and you will only be paying the £7.93 and no more. This only works when its in writing, what cant speak can't lie. Telephone calls are no good and people get bullied. It will work out, these companies know how the court system works and no judge is going yo uphold a case because someone didn't have a debit card in there pocket while on the phone." ..Thankyou very.much.for your advice x | |||

That way you have already offered payment. | |||

"Disgraceful there trying it on hun I hope that you get it sorted xx" ..Thanks me bestie xx | |||
"If it's a private owned Bayliff company phone them one more time and ask for all correspondence to be put in writing and sent to you. Only reply in writing to them and keep a copy. I don't know the rules in England however private Bayliff services have no power to do anything. I might be wrong but unless the council go to court and get a warrant for the retrieval of the £7 you owe then I wouldn't worry about it. Google the Baliff company name also it's amazing what you might find out. "...They work on behalf of our council.x | |||

"Citizens advice will be your best bet x" Yes. What they are demanding is unreasonable in the circumstances. | |||

Wouldn't worry about it until you get an official letter from the courts. | |||

"It's Bailiff, not Bayliff! Go to Citizens Advice. They should helo you with a letter to the Bailiffs. I suspect that will be the end of the matter and that the Bailiffs know that this is a "try on". If not then Citizens Advice should help you with an application to the County Court. I cannot see any Judge accepting that you have to pay a penalty charge of £135 for a missed £8 final instalment of a debt payment." Isn't it bayleaf  | |||
"I know how you feel. Last Dec I got a parking ticket, which I knew nothing about, my only thought is someone walking past my van removed it as a joke. I moved house last year, informed dvla, somehow they got my license ok, but my van got registered to the block of flats next door, practicaly identical address, me ***** Road, next door ***** Road Flats. So I never received any of the mail. Last month I got an email from a bailiff. Called them, to be told it was now £700! It has been through court & everything. I was given 24hrs to pay, or they had a warrant to remove goods, failing that an application for my committal! All for an original £25 fine! Took legal advise immediately, but had to pay. I'm now pursuing the dvla to reclaim the money " Now that is a nightmare!  | |||
