  • Phoenix Commercia/Parking Fine

    I need help!!

    I have a parking fine with Blackpool council for £112 (this includes court fee etc)

    I had a visit today from Phoenix Commercial collections Bailiff handing me a "notice of bailiff having visited" letter, stating I owe them £311.44

    I asked him how he came to that figure and he stated it was his companies guidelines for what they charge.

    I have spoken to Blackpool council who are refusing to accept my payment of the £112 direct to them, stating I have to deal with the bailiff direct now.

    I spoke to Phoenix who again are refusing this amount and state I have to pay the £311.44

    I really do not know what to do or where to go from here as I am certainly not paying £311.44 as this is certainly not a correct charges amount.

    PLEASE HELP!!

    (the original parking fine was Dec 2012)

    Thanks

      HI,
      Yes I have read that and it is a valid parking fine from Blackpool Council.
      My problem is the charges that the bailiff is putting on top.
      It is clear he is overcharging with fees.

      Like I said I contacted both the council and Phoenix and the council say I have to speak to the bailiff and the bailiff is saying the charges stand.

      How can I sort this. I have offered to pay the original fine including court fees etc but Blackpool council have refused (over the telephone).

        The reason they will have refused is that you failed to pay originally at the discounted rate and even after that have failed to respond to all the other notices until Mr bailiff has turned up. What exactly is the Bailiff charging for?

          He has not broken t down, but when I rang him to ask him he set it amounts set out by his company (i.e Phoenix Commercial)

          As far as I can work it out it should just be £11.20 for the letter and 28% of the original debt.
          This does not add up to £311.44
