        You need to list what you think he could actually charge you for and contest the fees

          The fees chargeable by a HCEO are set down here:

          I see no reason why you HAVE to deal with the HCEO. If you pay the landlord, then you can discuss fees with the HCEO separately. They will have a writ to recover the debt owing, if there is no longer a debt owing, I'm not sure what happens as HCEO's are not my area. I'm sure one of the others will be along later today to answer this for you though.

            The creditor may be worried that if they accept payment they will then be liable for the HCEO fees, others will have more knowledge.

                HCEO exist to get the money owed after the debtor has not paid the debt and act under authority of a court if the debtor wants to avoid fees they needed to pay the debt before they were involved,its not like a letter from a DCA threatening action that incurs fees/charges its action that does Incur charges if a debtor was able to sidestep them by paying the debt direct to escape fees what would be the point of them?

                  hadenough,

                  You have now started no fewer than eight threads on the same issue.                   I note reading through them that you have had some excellent advice and have left lots of questions / issues unanswered.

                  Sadly you will find some of our best posters will give up on the thread(s) if you fail to respond to questions, or just start another thread. I see you also have threads over on CAG about exactly the same issue.

                  I'm not quite sure what you hope to achieve by this, other than total confusion.

                  I have sent a message to site admin to ask if they can merge the threads, but to be honest, merging eight threads is a monumental feat, and they may not be able to.

                  Your best way forward is to go back through all your threads, as you're the one truly familiar with them, post a new POST NOT THREAD with a synopsis of what has happened so far, and answering all the questions you've been asked to date. THEN, but only then, are we likely to be able to give you the help you are clearly so desperately craving.

                    Did you ever pursue this possible illegal eviction issue mentioned in another thread of yours? This could have a knock-on effect on this debt bailiffs are attempting to collect from you. Illegal eviction is a criminal offence. You said in another thread that you didn't attend the hearing. Have you asked anyone whether you have grounds to get that original court order set-aside? I don't know the facts of your situation, but if the order is set-aside then you wouldn't owe this debt. It's a long shot but one worth exploring in my view.

                    Please ring the Shelter Helpline tomorrow and ask them how to tackle this illegal eviction issue:

                    I know nothing about bailiffs but I do know you would benefit from professional input on the validity of this debt

                      I've asked site team to merge the threads if they can. The sort of issue above will be picked up then. Thanks Plan B for looking back.

                            I would be interested in what is in the small print of the original contract. Many landlords 'try it on' when they can smell better options. My son was renting a lovely place in a good location. The landlord said they would have to move as he had plans to turn it into and old folks home, apparently this is the most lucrative option to any house these days. My son had to move and the place was left empty for a couple of years!! The home he was in prior to that was owned by the Church. He was thrown out, with partner and children, because the Church wanted to live in it, a female vicar. The home was damp and in ill repair and affected their health. When they were removed, the church did the house up.
                            Darkness is only the absence of light; ignorance is only the absence of knowledge.
