i have receved 3 letters from the same bailiffs, and every time they are just hand posted through the door. The bailiff does'nt knock, i know because ive been in every time. i'm told to phone the bailiff in these letters , but i have no means of doing so. i have written to their head office, who just tell me to contact this bailiff, and all i have is a phone number, i'm quite happy to arange payments, but without them knocking how can i. i received a letter this morning at 7.40am (on a saturday) stating that i have to contact this bailiff today or he will enter my premises and remove goods- even in my absence. was the 1st letter i received, 1st contact or does 1st contact have to be face to face, or at least over the phone?

Are you sure that it is a bailiff? I ask because a bailiff would usually knock long and loud. Also if it is a bailiff there is generally a set of terms and fees on the back of the form they post.
Which company is it? Who are they collecting on behalf of? It is generally council tax.
If you can let me know some specifics click on my name and email me at Debt Advice Foundation and I'll see what we can do.
