The parking fine woman has the fines run up after she sold the car. It wasn’t her debt but obviously didn’t defend it.
I missed that, but it makes the case more understandable. Her "problems" at the time must have been pretty severe that she couldn't find half a day to attend court and explain what actually happened.The guy who ordered doors he couldn't pay for is still doing my head in. Home improvement companies ALWAYS offer finance. They want you to take it, they get a fat commission from the finance house. They prefer it to cash in many cases. I don't understand why he didn't ask, and why they didn't offer. Going through County Court and then High Court was all so unnecessary.
Re the parking fine case, if she had sold the car and done the paperwork then she wouldn't have been down as the registered keeper. Could have been her partner at the time racking up the parking tickets, ignoring/hiding all the post that came regarding them and then her leaving and moving to different addresses so not aware of the issue. Now they had traced her to this address, I wonder if they had sent her anything there or straight to a visit from the HCEO's.

Out of interest, the windows case, where they were in the holiday apartment and trying to use pliers to unlock the door into the other property, is that not pushing the boundaries of "peaceful entry"?
I thought the same as you. That's breaking and entering in my book.tannhauser said:

As far as I am concerned they have the authority to break and enter if the debt and premises are related to a company or commercial operation. Private debt / premises definitely not.
But being that the premises was a holiday rental would that not constitute a commercial purpose?Pieman68 said:

On the other hand do accept that they get lied to and obstructed every day, denials of ability to pay, yet roll of notes fit to choke a dozen donkeys suddenly appears.

Some weird behavior from tonight's 'victim'. Removing things of value to next door will not go down well with the bailifs, am sure.
His behaviour has been odd throughout. He suddenly and miraculously finds £500 in cash in his house. Yet again another person who has dogs he hasn't bothered to train - claiming one is only 10 months old is hardly an excuse. Dogs can be trained from a much younger age. It's sheer laziness.nicanary said:
The next case - they add on £600 for a recovery truck, but it isn't needed, yet they still insist on payment for it. Eh?
I haven't seen this episode.Did they suddenly manage to find the money after the blokes said 'well, if you are not going to pay cash, we will take your cars away'?
If so, it's their own fault.

Why didn't they pay when the creditor said 'I am taking you to court'.
Why didn't they pay when they got the notice to say they have lost the court case.
Why didn't they pay when etc etc.....
