Hi I'm new on the site and looking for some advice.
We have a payment plan set up with Rundles for council tax arreas at £70 a month, we've had it set up since September. We paid septembers and October payments on time but we have missed Novembers payment for the simple fact we could not afford to pay it.
On Thursday 11th December a enforcement officer came to my house to 'take control of goods' he posted a letter through the door stating he'd been and he would be back later on that day. After calling him to try and work something out he basiclly fobbed my off and said if I don't pay £550+ on Monday 15th Decemeber he would return with a van and take control of goods. (He hasn't been in my property before)
Now there is no way I can afford to pay that much cash on monday in fact we are skint till payday. Today Sunday 14th December I have sent them an email asking if I can lower the monthly amount to £45. If they do not accept this and insist I pay all of it, is there anything else I can do to try and get the agreement to a level we can afford. (P.s I also forwarded the same email to my local council)
Also we never received a notice of 7 clear days that anyone would be visiting, in fact we didn't recive any notice what so ever.
Thanks in advance
