Bailiffs continue to text me for payment after a payment was made

Block the Sender

Bailiffs may use text messages and downloadable apps to gather personal details, track your location, or verify contact information, but these messages can also be scams.

Never click links or download apps from bailiff companies. Block and report the bailiff's number immediately. Block all private and anonymous numbers to stop bailiffs from spamming others without the bailiffs knowing.

The sender likely obtained your number from the V5 keeper document you filed with the DVLA. It is a form of Harassment.^[1][2] Report such texts to your mobile provider (7726 or 87726 for Vodafone) to prevent further harassment.
