I've seen a few of these programmes now, which essentially project a very fluffy image of High Court Enforcement Officers, where they are just nice compassionate people who are only doing their job.

One tactic I've seen come up a few times is when they have sought to seize goods from...

Just a little tip.

In these days of tax being cancelled when a vehicle is transferred this is quite important.

If you move house and return your V5C (logbook) to DVLA to make an address change don't write your name into section 6, or tick any of the boxes. Don't fill in the...

I've just come home to find this letter waiting for me.



It's a letter demanding that I sign it to declare that I am the sole occupier of this house (which I am) and consent to let Crapita, the infamous private corporation, store my personal data and cross-check it against...

Hi

Not my area of expertise - however long and short of it; I sold a car in September 2014 and sent the relevant part of the V5 to DVLA - today I received a letter saying I have been fined for failing to notify them of tax / SORN. The fine is £40 if paid immediately or £80 if not....

Is there a way of checking for CCJs, defaults etc at an old address without giving linkage to your current address?

I'm slightly concerned as I've been googling for updates on the Egg/Barclaycard/Marlin situation and have seen threads on other forums saying that these have started appearing...

Am sure many will be wondering the same so ill ask here to see if we can shed any light on this question.
