Have a bit of a predicament. There is a lot going on here at the moment.
Seven years ago my dad died very suddenly, and he left a flat he bought to my brother and I. In that time, to be fair we’ve never had any problems letting it out as it’s a lovely property in a good location. However, we did get a bit stung a while ago and somehow ended up owing money to the local council.
I rang them and gave them my address and asked for a form to be sent to allow us arrangement to pay, as I was about to leave my job.
Unfortunately they sent it to the flat instead. I forgot about it (which I recognise is my error.) We then got contact from bailiffs who absolutely wouldn’t discuss any flexibility. They decided on a minimum amount p/m and it’s pretty high for me at the moment. And I genuinely don’t know how I’m going to afford it this month (not a begging thread.)
I am due back to work next month. AIBU to think more flexibility should be granted? And my main question is where I stand legally.

AIBU?
To think that this lack of flexibility is just ridiculous?
