There are no contact details on the letter, just JBW details

The alleged bailiff isn't called Gideon, is he?

Is he still a bailiff? It was certainly one of his 'tricks.'

In addition to reporting a bailiff to the court that issued their certificate, it is also advisable to report them to the police, where clear evidence exists of Fraud by False Misrepresentation, in other words, charging more than the law says they are entitled to charge. However, check with the court you are complaining to at the time of complaining as regards this, as they may not want you to do this. The rule is check first.

If bailiffs attend your property and threaten to break down your door or use a locksmith to force an entry and the bailiffs have no police officers accompanying them, call the police using the 999 system. It is an offence under Section 3, Criminal Damage Act 1971 to make a threat to cause damage to another person's property without lawful authority and the police can arrest them without a warrant. Make sure you video any contact with the bailiffs, right from the time they arrive.

Would these be sufficient evidence for police to arrest a suspect?
