Hey, I am new here, so hope I am posting in the right place.
First of all, here is a link to the letter I got through the post yesterday.

The story is, I had a fine to pay, as did my partner. However, due to an error on both our part we had been only paying hers, but paying double, i.e. making 2 x £20 payments on her payment card.
Anyway, the court sympathise, however are not interested.
Now, this letter stipulates that they may enter the premises to remove goods, and so on and so forth.
However, I am more than happy to pay the fine, of £190, what I am not happy paying is the £300 (£85 admin, £215 attendance fee)
I have checked with various resources, which say that they can only enforce fines and other orders of payments and NOT for fees. In addition they can NOT enter to recover items to cover their fees.
However, I have just spoken to someone in the fines enquiry office who has said that they can in fact enter to seize property to cover THEIR costs.
EDIT: Just to add, He posted this yesterday, and is expecting full payment by tomorrow. I have tried to contact him today, but to no avail.
