Re: Marston bailiff clamped my car!!

That sounds incredibly painful, bb. Not being a sado-masochist myself, I can only imagine that "whirdling" and "scroping" involve the infliction of excruciating pain.

They come from the double entendre of a Kenneth Williams character, so we can use our imagination.

But seriously, the bailiff in this case needs to be brought up quick smart by the copper he tried to mislead.

Perhaps CPS should make an example of a certificated cretin, and throw the book at him, preferably a big heavy one, say a large print version of War and Peace, or send him to jail where he would have to go on the segregation wing with the nonces, who would whirdle* and scrope* him to within an inch of his life.

No, bb. Hanging him by the gonads from the police station roof is much more fun. Whether CPS would put a certificated bailiff up in front of a magistrates court is another matter. They came out of a criminal appeal very badly before Hove Crown Court just before Christmas because Sussex Police acted on the say-so of two neanderthal bailiffs acting for local authority whom, it transpires, had obtained an LO wrongfully and are now trying to heap blame on the innocent person whose home to which the neanderthals illegally forced entry.

Hopefully put his cordwangle in a thumbscrew for lying to police and wasting police time, among other crimes. Or better still feel his collar and get him up in front of the beak

Re: Marston bailiff clamped my car!!

I wonder what Mr Plod the Policeman would do to Mr Scumbag the Bailiff if he found out Mr Scumbag had been telling him porkies? Something excruciatingly painful one hopes. If there is no Clamping Order, hanging him by the gonads from the police station roof might provide the police officers on duty with some amusement during their shift and teach the bailiff a lesson that you do not p*ss-off or lie to the police.

Re: Marston bailiff clamped my car!!

The car had been only been seized by the Bailiff, meaning it still belongs to you but under the control of the Warrant, as no WPA was in operation then you are free to use it as you see fit. If the car had been removed then yes it could have been classed as stolen. Another classic example of a Bailiff twisting things to get the no knowledge Police on his side.

If I remember correctly he only has a Warrant of Execution, a Clamping Order is yet another specific Order from the Magistrates Court and not part of the WoE per se.

Re: Marston bailiff clamped my car!!

Thanks bizzybob - I have not had a walking possession agreement with the bailiff, he just clamped the car. I am a home help assistant who travels a great distance from my house for work and has to travel between clients and this can only been done by car. My children also go to school across the other side of town (due to no school places in my area) and it would take 8 buses a day to drop and collect them everyday. I have explained to the policeman that without my car I can not do my job and therefore no money to pay the debt.

Hope bluebottle comes in regarding this, but i suspect the policeman you spoke to will see that the bailiff is trying to be a complete anus, and his clamp would prevent you working to pay the debt, mnotwithstanding the clamping of itself may have been unlawful. Unless you sell or dispose of the car, and until such time as the bailiff gives you a Notice of seizure listing the car, how can it be stolen if it isn't seized?

If i was that copper i would be telling the bailiff, his yarbles are in danger of removal, in a very painfull way.

Re: Marston bailiff clamped my car!!

Is this all just a scare tactic?

The bailiff is being an anus, A long as you have not disposed of the car, and are using it as per a walking possession, where the goods are being used normally whilst being security for a payment arrangementthen really he is guilty of wasting police time imho, as if clamping a car prevents the debtor earning a living and money to pay the debt it is counter productive, it is disingenuous to say that tough get the bus, if the shift pattern is such that public transport is not available.

Re: Marston bailiff clamped my car!!

It was a policeman as he left a voicemail an I called him back through the police station. I have explained the situation to the policeman and he is saying he will try and come to some kind of arrangement with the bailiff about all of this and call me back and let me know what he said. The bailiff came here this morning and realised the car had been moved and called the police and reported it stolen. I told the policeman I am not refusing to pay but can not pay all in one go and explained my circumstances. He was quite sympathetic with me and said the bailiff said the charges would be dropped if I paid in full.

Re: Marston bailiff clamped my car!!

I was wondering that too. Just HTF can a Baliff report your car stolen

Re: Marston bailiff clamped my car!!

Are you sure it was Suffolk Police? Bailiffs are known to make intimidating telephone calls, posing as police officers. If the bailiff has done this, he has committed an offence for which the police can arrest him. Also, if he is not currently registered to act as a bailiff, he is also committing an offence for which the police can arrest him. Check that it was, in fact, Suffolk Police and not Mr I M A Scumbag the bailiff.

You cannot be arrested for Theft on the say-so of a turd-brain who, it sounds, is desperately clutching at straws or seriously taking the p*ss. If the bailiff has made a false and intimidating call, that is serious. It is not only a criminal offence, it also brings into question his fitness to act as a bailiff.

Re: Marston bailiff clamped my car!!

I have just had suffolk police on the phone and they said the bailiff has reported my car stolen and I could be arrested for theft of a motor vehicle. What will happen? I am waiting for the policeman to call me back about this.

I am so stressed and upset over all of this.
