Hi All
I had received a letter from Excel civil enforcement on the 13/04/2015 saying i now owed them £75 on top of the fine i owed the court which was £170.
I had agreed with the court to pay £5 a week while i was unemployed, so i made a payment of £30 thinking this would cover me for 6 weeks. This was not the case so i had forfeited my agreement and received this letter from Excel out of the blue.
No matter who i called and what i said it soon became apparent that i had to pay this bill, so i set up a standing order to pay £80 as a one of payment and then £20 fortnightly and if i paid it of in full then the standing order would be stopped.
i came into some money and made a payment for the full amount on the 01/05/2015. on the 08/05/2015 Excel raided my account and stole £20 I phoned them and they said that it was down to me to state that i had paid in full and to stop the standing order at which i stated that in my last call to the office they said that it would be done by them if full payment was made. i then sent them this letter
Am i within my rights to demand this payment as they seemed to be when they demanded there payment from me ????
