Hi all,
I realise these posts come about from being stuck and seriously concerned - and that is exactly what I am.
I have read through some posts here and I need some guidance.
A long time ago (January 2014) I am alleged to have done an illegal right hand turn in the London Borough of Dagenham and Barking.
Only problem is I didn't receive the paperwork because (yes, my absolute stupidity), I did not change the log book details on my car to my new rental address.
I did go back to the old property to ask for post and the person just stated he returned to sender.
Move forward 10 months and suddenly I get a letter via my parents house from Newlyn threatening me with a Notice of Enforcement at circa £240. I read this forum and I decided not to talk to them. I realised I couldn't talk with the council either and therefore I'm in a bit of a sticky situation.
7 days later just prior to xmas, another letter is hand delivered to my parents house now stating 'Control of Goods' under Tribunals. Courts and Enforcement Act 2007 whereby the debt is now an astonishing £520. It is sickening! The original debt I would have dealt with - but it's out of control.
My Mother is mad at me for putting stress on her and my father (my father is not that well to be honest (physically). It is not fair on my parents - and I need to resolve this. But I'm unsure of the next step.
To pay £520 I just can't do at the moment. I can't believe that the original debt would have been somewhere around £100 I assume, and it's now trebled! I'm sick with worry - and even more so that I have a ccj against me and I didn't know. They are also stating more costs will go on at £100 and a further 7.5% - so it's getting worse and worse.
Please help. I just want to resolve this. I've never ever been in debt in my life. I want to talk to someone civil and want to take the pressure away from my parents.
Thanks. Any help would be wholly appreciated.
PS. I have just done a credit check and I don't have any outstanding judgements against me thankfully. Hopefully I can now get this resolved amicably!
