The Bailiff Is Pestering You About Someone Else's Debt.
You can apply for an injunction under the Protection from Harassment Act 1987, but first, you must give the bailiff a Formal Notice. And if the bailiff has already removed goods or taken money for someone else's debt, then make a third-party claim.
If a bailiff harasses you without a valid enforcement power, such as a Warrant or a Writ, you can apply to the court for an injunction because the bailiff is not acting within their duty.
Inform the bailiff company, the bailiff, and, if known, the creditor in writing that you are not the debtor and do not owe any money. Clearly stating that they must stop contacting you and outlining the consequences if they continue is crucial in stopping the harassment.
It's essential to record all your communications with the bailiff and any documents related to the debt, including the type of debt, the bailiff's demands, the amount they are trying to enforce, and, if known, the debtor's name.
You can make a third-party claim if you want to recover goods or money taken by a bailiff for someone else's debt.
Contact me to make a Statutory Declaration to prevent bailiffs from visiting your address. This won't stop enforcement against the debtor but will remove your address from the enforcement process.
