Hi, i'm posting on behalf of my father who isn't very technical so is unable to post on here, we owed 230 pounds on a council tax bill, from 2 years ago which we had no knowledge of.
Bristow and Sutor visited on the 25th June, my dad was outside at the time, he talked to them, they asked to come in but my father refused, walked inside and locked the door, the bailiff never gained entrance to our house.
Around half an hour later a letter was posted through our letterbox, containing these two letters:
I have removed a few personal details, name, address etcetera.
(on the rear are some terms/conditions and a small box with a WPA section, this hasn't been filled in or signed, also date here is 25th, where as the seizure document has a date of the 20th)
My dad hasn't signed or agreed to anything, they seem to have put a levy/seizure on his car, another point to make is that the car has disabled tax, and the taxation class on the logbook is also disabled, my Dad is currently unemployed, receiving DLA benefit.
Are they legally allowed to take the vehicle with what they have provided? As far as I am aware they need to have made a WPA to take the car, they haven't clamped the car and it is also parked on our driveway.
Another thought is, are they allowed to take the vehicle with it being a disabled vehicle, it's my fathers only means of transport, he has blue badges.
Any help and advice is much appreciated and obliged.
James.
