Need Bailiff Help?

We have been helping people with bailiff debts and giving debt advice for over 10 years. A bailiff (also known as enforcement officers) is an individual who is legally authorised to recover an outstanding debt.
You should not receive an unexpected visit from a bailiff – they need to provide at least 7 days’ notice for their first visit and you will have received a final demand which will have warned you about the use of bailiffs. If you require bailiff help or advice then please contact us today on 03335779890

Bailiffs can only be used for the following types of debt:

Council tax
CCJs
High Court Judgements
Child Support & Maintenance
Parking Fine
Business rent & rates
VAT
Income tax
National insurance

Bailiffs do not collect debts for credit cards, overdrafts or payday loans unless you have failed to pay it after a CCJ.

Bailiffs can:

Force entry into your home if they have a warrant
Seize control of your belongings and take them away (they list them first and then come back at a later date to take)
Enter your home if they have been invited by an individual over 16 years of age

Bailiffs cannot:

Enter your home between 9pm – 6am
Enter your home where only a child or vulnerable person is present
Force their way past you when you open the door
Climb through windows or over walls & fences
