I can’t afford to pay my council tax and a few other bills because of the high amount of the judgment that’s being taken from my pay

The best thing to do in this situation is to contact the people you can't pay and make them aware of the situation, that you are appealing to the court for re determination and you have a hearing date for that. Work out what you can pay each of them, then ask them if they will accept that lesser payment until you can resolve this and get things back to normal.Originally posted by blakey1152 View PostI can’t afford to pay my council tax and a few other bills because of the high amount of the judgment that’s being taken from my pay
You could do this with the help of CAB as them working on your behalf might make the companies be a bit more reasonable about it.
You need to be paying something though else you're going to be in an even bigger hole, especially with council tax.COMPLETING AN N180 DIRECTIONS QUESTIONNAIRE (SMALL CLAIMS TRACK) GUIDE
My posts here are based on my experience of a variety of life events. I have no formal legal training & if in doubt take professional legal advice or contact CAB. If you follow anything I write here you do so at your own risk & I accept no liability for any loss, costs or other outcomes.
