My son owed parking fines and the bailiffs attended my property and demanded that I give them property to the value of £360. I told them the only property of my son's was bags of clothing but they insisted that unless I had receipts to prove otherwise, they could take anything they wanted. They then said if I didn't pay up, they would ring the police and tell them I was being obstructive so that I could be arrested for that offence. In fear and in an effort to get rid of him, I paid £360 which he wrote (after my signature) was a 'voluntary payment from mother.' It was not voluntary, I was terrified.
