Newbie with 1st time bailiff issue!

[Wilkes]

Hi all
was searching google and came across this forum, now i hoping i can get some help from you guys.
Basically i had a PCN which i disputed, and lost, and didn't pay cos i had the raging hump.
So now without previous letters i had a "Notice of Attendance" dropped into my porch. i say dropped as my wife saw the guy do just that without knocking.
The fees, to me seem crazy £210 Attendance to remove fee.

So, after speaking to the company JBW i have asked if the bailiff a Mr Martin Maguire was certified, (as he didn't knock) they say yes, but i cant find him on any register.
Q. How would i double check that?

and that I am being charged £210 attendance to remove fee when no levys were made.
Q. Is that allowed?

I have attached a scan of the letter, the print is a bit offline.

Thanks guys, cant wait to see where we go from here.

Hope you don't mind us joining your thread. My girlfriend has just had an unannounced visit from JBW demanding payment of £700 on the basis that an arrangement to meet a parking fine had lapsed. There hadn't been any prior communication and the amount owed has gone up by 6 times. It's on behalf of Bexley .....yeah the council that blew £250k on Olympic torch ********. How do we get this thing back on a business footing .....she's totally rattled and her daughter ( who was the only one in at the time) is too.

Dont mind at all, it takes the p*ss. First thing to do would be to find out if the guy who visited you is a certified Bailiff.

Ok , as we're at my house we don't have that information. She has a text from him saying "JBW and adhering to schedule 3&5 connected with distress " ......whatever that means. Thanks mate.

Have been told by JBW that the bailiff in question had his certificate issued in Lambeth, so how would i check this??

Phone the court and ask when it was issued.
