How much is the fee for a Walking
Possession?
By law, the bailiff attending at either your home or business
can only charge fees agreed under Statutory Legislation. For the
collection of Council Tax & Business Rates the fees are set
at £24.50 for a first
visit with a second visit fee
being at a reduced rate of £18.00
Where the bailiff is able to earn a more respectable amount of
money is by encouraging you to sign a “Walking
Possession”. By persuading you to sign this, the
bailiff’s fees increase in that he can then charge a further
flat rate fee of £12 for entering
into a Walking Possession when collecting for Council Tax or a
daily fee of 55p ( for 14 days) when
collecting on unpaid Parking Charge Notices.
By visiting the Bailiffs Fees section
of our Downloads area, you will see
that we have provided full details of the Statutory Fees that
the bailiff can charge to you.
