Could anyone please tell me if a borough council (Middlesbrough) can refuse to accept to(take back a debt) instead of allowing baliffs to enter my home and take what items i have,to recover monies owed for council tax.I eas told by one of there advisors that management had told staff to NOT accept offers from people who make an offer to pay back what they owe in council tax.I thought the law stated that,if i made an offer,then council would accept it and there by stop any attempt by baliffs to take what little i do have.But a management derective is forbiding any staff to accept.Is this right?Please answer only if you know rules regulations on council matters.I stand to lose my family over this,and the past 4years of hell we have suffered from them.THANKS
