A balliff has taken my car to pay a fine that i never knew existed until today as the balliff amitted himself he had been sending letters regarding this to the wrong address. When he located me which was only today he has taken my car to clear the debt even though my car is on finance and the court order and warrent are in a different address to the one he siezed my car from can you please tell me if this is allowed?
You say the car is on finance. Do you mean Hire Purchase? If so, you do not own it - the finance company does - & the bailiffs probably have no rights to it. If it is HP, tell the finance company straight away what has happened & see what they want to do.
I assume the fine is a Court fine. If the car is not on HP, complain urgently to the Court about what has happened. You must act quickly, or the car will be sold.
A warrant issued by the court can only be lawfully exercised at the address specified on it. Any action taken at a different address would be unlawful.
I would suggest that you speak to a solicitor about this. The bayliff has acted outside the authority given to him by the court.
