4 field visits are excessive, especially when they would have seen the unoccupied and derelict house on the first visit. I would make that point. I would check what there protocols are on that as a general rule. Send them some pictures, i.e. this is what a unoccupied and derelict house, etc. Also have you had any dates / timings for visits? A SAR would get you that information.

Yes got all that from the SAR. Much more info on the early Eon, (rather than Eon Next) visits which clearly state house appears to be unoccupied. Increased estimated billing seems to have started (unsurprisingly) after the move to Eon Next. Are you able to comment/ advise on my current position legally and wether the CCJ is still valid and wether high court bailifs still have a valid case bearing in mind thr debt is now below £600?

EON / EON NEXT, could visit 50 times to build up charges.
I think they can. 'When enforcing a County Court Judgment in England and Wales if the judgment is below £600 inclusive of costs then you MUST use the County Court's own bailiffs. If the judgment is above £600 you can have your case transferred up from the County Court where you got your Judgment to the High Court for enforcement.'
The CCJ I think you would find it difficult to get it set aside because you received the Court papers.
Because they chased you for money you didn't owe, you disputed the amount, they didn't listen, make a formal complaint, follow their complaints procedure on their website. They should callback the debt and consent to removing the CCJ. They chased you for the wrong amount.

Originally posted by moatmeister View PostThanks. My point is the incorrect judgement was obviously over £600. But its now under £600 inncluding original costs, and would have been if it had been based on correct readings. So I think it should never have gone to the High Court?

Yes. So the original high court bailiffs who turned up at the end of April chasing the £3400 and went away empty handed, are the same ones who turned up this week to collect the £570. What Im asking is because its now under £600 and so I believe shouldn't be with the High Court,, do they still have any legal jurisdiction?

If you hadn't received the Court Claim i.e. it went to the wrong address, then you could of set a side the Judgement. They made a claim, you could of disputed it during the Court Hearing where a Judgement was made. You need to challenge EON for 'harassing you for the wrong amount. Have you lodged a formal complaint on that with Eon?

Hi everyone and echat11 Some positive news here now, have successfully got a stay of execution for the High Court Writ, thus stopping the bailiffs, and successfully filed an application for a set aside hearing which is later this month, so hopefully can get everything sorted then. Your advice to get a SAR provided vital evidence for this so thank you. Havn't yet lodged a formal complaint with EON, but I will be doing so.Last edited by moatmeister; 6th August 2024, 08:12:AM.

You could write a Skeleton Argument, send it to the Court and other party, 3 working days before the
Hearing, that should help you explain things on the day. 2 A4 pages max, attach documents / evidence, number pages, number points etc.

Update after Hearing.

They can't complain about not receiving it.
