leeds magistrates/Marston

[rowly54321]

Can anyone help me out.

I had a speeding fine issued by Leeds Magistrates courts, I had been in hospital and payments had fallen behind i got a letter of Collective/Marston asking me to pay the outstanding £149 which i set up a payment plan to pay the amount owe as i had been in hospital and not working. I had made the first payment of 44.70 and then had 3 payments of 34.77 these payments where due on the 28th, So on the 28th of November i made and payment of 75 which left 29.30 outstanding. I did the payment as a bank transfer on my phone, But today i had a call of one of there guys saying that there where at my house and there to take good for unpaid fine i explained that the payment of 75 was made on Friday the 28th, but as it was a the weekend the money didn't hit there account till the Monday.

Now they're depending i pay 260 or there will take goods from my house. i have mental issues my brother has told leeds courts and Marston about my health issues.

If i paid the remaining 29.30 to the courts would that get rid of Marston taking goods from the house.

Sorry for the bad spelling.

If you pay the amount outstanding to the court, you must give notice to the bailiff - otherwise he is not liable for damages if he takes an enforcement step.

Here is a template letter notice.

Would a simple text message give him notice also have sent the email to the Marston custom help team.

A text message is fine, provided...

. It contains enough information about the debtor and the fine.
. You keep a screenshot of the sent text message.

If you're not there, then he will have a long wait.
