You have a right to see a copy of the police incident report.[1][2]
Call non-emergency 101 with the date, time and location of the bailiff incident. The call handler can give a readback of the notes on the CAD, and give you the incident or crime reference number.
You can make the request by email to the police force, and take screenshots of the correspondence for your file.
Some police forces ask you to make a request under the Freedom of Information Act,[3] but other police forces say the information is exempt because it is information which such a claim could be maintained in legal proceedings.[4]
If you are bringing a claim, then give a letter of claim including the basis the claim is made, a summary of the facts, what the claimant wants from the police force and if any money, how the amount is calculated.[5]
If the police have no record of the incident, the bailiff lied about calling the police.
