Hi all,
I'm new to this forum and I'd appreciate if someone can provide me with some ways to get rid of the bailiff!
I am a full time student and should be exempted from council tax payment altogether. However, for some reasons, the council has not been receiving any of my e-mails or posts with my student certificate when i have already posted them every time I received a letter from the council requiring payments from me!
Then my case was passed onto the bailiff and I have been receiving letter from EQUITA. I then went to my uni and asked for help and made sure that the council received my student certificate. So all these happened in June.
Then I received a letter from the council a week or so ago saying that my account has been cleared with no council tax payment due. And for all those times from June until today I haven't been receiving any letters or calls from EQUITA.
But I have received a letter from them saying that they were here this morning and I wasn't in. If I do not make the payment in full and in clear funds in 24 hours they are going to remove goods from my house even in my absence.
My questions now are,
1) do they actually have the right to force entry?
2) should I really pay EQUITA even when the council posted me a letter saying my account has been cleared with my student certificate?
3) what should I do now? do i call the bailiff or just ignore the letter?
4) will they really be visiting tomorrow and break into my house??
5) is there a way to get rid of them since it is so unfair of them to charge me a fee when I am a full time student!
Please help me asap I am so confused as to what I should do now...the council tax office is closed now and my uni adviser has left her office....
I'd appreciate very much if someone can help me right now..!
Many thanks!!!
