We owned a house in northern france until the beginning of 2006 at that time we sold the house to a french couple, it was our belief that all outstanding debts were disharged at that time, the notaire had delayed completion until all tax matters had been agreed and deductions made. We are now living in UK and have recieved a demand for Tax Fonciere and Habitation for the period that we believe has been paid, we have written and explained only to be threatened with proceedings to freeze our bank accounts and to send in bailiff,s to recover the debt. Question can this be done , if it can does it require an English court order and if so do we have the right to argue our case. Thanks for the reply,s  ignorance is not allways bliss  I think we will pay the bill without delay. mike.w
