Hi,
I have a problem with Bristow & Sutor.
I had some financial problems and I didn't pay my council tax bill on time.
It looks like the council forwarded my account to Bristow & Sutor.
Now my financial situation is better and I paid my council tax bill (the debt) in full about 2 months ago. Direct to the council (using www payment).
So now I don't have any debt with council.
Today, the bailiff came to my home (I wasn't at home) and he left me a letter.
The letter says it's for a council tax debt.
They want me to pay £310 (this includes Enforcement Stage Fees of £235). I think £75 is for the first stage. Total £310. That's just their fees.
Can they charge me £235 for today's visit if the debt has been paid in full 2 months ago?
Thanks for your help.
