    hi everybody. i'm writing to see if anybody can help us. my wife got a fine of 600. pound for no tv lisence yes thats right 600. she agreed to pay 20 amonth. i'm disabled and in a chair i fell very ill and to be honest she forgot to pay for 2 month's which was 40.00. we got a letter from marston's saying they wanted a payment of 855.00 in full. when my wife phoned them to say we could not pay that she was told that if she paid 280.00 on a card we would then be able to pay in installments. she told them that we did not have that kind of money to pay there an then. so she was told to ring the following week and then they might have a number for the bailiff that would be dealing with it. we phoned the following week to ask for the number and was told it had not yet been past on to the bailiff yet and we should wait a further week. well yesterday while we was at the hospital the bailiff had been round to the house and left a note saying that if we did not pay 925.00 by 7pm they would come and take our stuff. so my wife phoned the number and it was a lady who said she would be round in 5 min's in 5 min's she was here. at the door she asked to come in and my wife said are you going to take my stuff and the bailiff said no im here to sort this out with you. we let her in and she sat down and said the following. if we did not pay the money and there was no goods that was worth taking away she could go to prison if they send it back to court. she then asked to go upstairs with my wife and look in are bedroom the only thing in there is my bed and comode. she then went into kitchen and said i will take your washing machine/cooker/microwave. she they came in and sat down again and said i will be back on the 4th of may as she is going on holiday and when she come's bck she wants the whole amount otherwise she will take the stuff. i told her the tv was old and so is the cooker and dryer. but all she wanted was the money. she did not ask my wife to sign anything and she did not touch anything. she said they dont do a payment plan anymore. im worried out of my mind as she she my wife could go to prison and it did not matter if i was disabled and have 2 kids of 13 n 15. please somebody help..... sorry this is so long
