cheque process offer
Hi,
i made an offer to council for rates using the cheque process.
i offered 10% of what was due for the whole year.
They sent a letter back, after the 72 hour period, stating that cannot accept check, only if applying it to the full amount still due.
In other words, i still owe the full amount.
i sent back asking for evidence that the payee has authority to renegotiate a non negotiable contract.
They sent back stating under a certain act i have a responsibility to pay rates, blah, blah, blah.
No real answer. Did it again and they sent back saying they will not debate this, pay or be sent to a collection.
So the collection sent a paper saying,maybe i overlooked this, just pay the council as soon as possible.
Then recently the council sent a new statement of account.
Iwant to do an A4v on that, but is it better to hold my position on the first process and send a third letter,
I am just concerned about seizing assets, our property.
We just about have it in a non registered trust.
