Hi there
I am new to this so hope this is the right way to go about asking for advice.
I will keep it as brief as possible but I have outstanding council tax arrears which were for approximately £7,300 but as of today stand at £4990.
I have been trying to negotiate a monthly payment plan with solicitors to pay £1000 per month to clear debt.
My parents were at my house while I was at work last week as I had builders in and they opened the door to a man from an investigation company that wanted to serve me a stautory demand.
He is meant to come round tonight but I have told him that the debt is below £5000 and I am waiting for the solicitors to get back to me with regards to my offer of monthly instalments.
My question is should I not accept the papers he is wanting to serve me or avoid him and wait for the solicitors to get back to me?
Any help would be much appreciated as I am feeling very stressed and sick with worry as they are threatening to make me bankrupt.
Many thanks
