Can bailiffs take my things if im under 18?
Submitted on: 21st Oct 2010 by Non-Member | Total Answers: 1

Im 16 and in debt because i joined a gym, lost my job and could not pay the bill. I've been getting letters through from a company called C.A.R.S saying theyre going to send the bailiffs round to take belongings. But i don't own anything apart from a £10 phone as ive already sold my things to buy food ect.
Im full time education and just simply do not have the money to pay them. What can they do about it?

Any credit agreements set up with under 18’s are unenforceable. Contact a free money advisor, such as the CAB, who can discuss this further with you.
