It probably means that a lien has been placed on your account.  The balance is the amount that is owed.

Someone has placed a lien on a part of your property (home, car, etc.) for something.  Maybe a debt owed.\n\nThe "abstract" part should give youa brief explanation of the court order and tell you what happened and why.\n\nYou need to contact the court it was issued from and see what you need to do to resolve the matter.

Out of context, they just mean left (debit) or right (credit) on the ledger.\n\nAccounting uses 5 types of accounts. 3 are balance sheet accounts (asset, liability and owners equity accounts) and 2 are income statement accounts (revenue and expense accounts). \n\nThe balance sheet has asset accounts on the left and liability and owners equity accounts on the right.  The income statement has revenue accounts and expense accounts.  Think of income statement accounts as sub-accounts in the owners equity section of the balance sheet and the debits and credits will make more sense.\n\nAsset accounts normally have a debit balance, so debits increase an asset account and credits decrease an asset account.\n\nLiabilities and owners equity accounts normally have a credit balance, so credits increase a liability or equity account and debits decrease a liability or owners equity account.\n\nThe basic accounting formula that must hold true at all times is:\n\nAssets = Liabilities + Owners equity  \n\n(that's why it's called a balance sheet!)\n\nAll accounting transactions are recorded using double entry bookkeeping where the total of the debits must equal the total of the credits.  One side of a transaction may increase one asset while decreasing another. This would happen when cash (an asset) is paid for inventory (another asset). Inventory is debited and cash is credited.  If the company buys inventory on credit, then the transaction would be: Inventory is debited and Accounts Payable is credited. Accounts Payable is a liability account. When that bill gets paid: Accounts payable is debited and cash is credited.\n\nRevenue increases owners equity, so a revenue item is a credit. Expenses decrease owners equity, so an expense item is a debit. If expenses exceed revenues for a period, it is a loss and a net debit. (It reduces owners equity) If revenues exceed expenses for a period, it is a profit and a net credit. (It increases owners equity.)

I'm guessing that you mean a savings account book, what they write in it means nothing unfortunately, their computer system will only have credited you £10.\n\nThat said i'd wait a couple of months and go in and ask them to update the book with any interest thats due, play dumb and say you're not sure if you're due any but you're just curious. If the balance is £10,000 plus a bit of interest, withdraw it all immediately and blow it.

Yes. I'm assuming the lien is on real estate only. If it is on personal property too, you may have a problem if the govt. finds out.

You must mean "lien".  In other words, the apartment is security or collateral for a debt.\n\nThe definition is \nThe right to take and hold or sell the property of a debtor as security or payment for a debt or duty.

"Available" balance is what the bank can release to you and that amount which is not restricted for some reason..i.e. uncollected funds, etc.

Contact the county recorder's office in your state.  There will be a recorded document of the lien if it was filed.  You will know for sure if there is as well as the amount owed.

Not exactly sure what you are referring to.  Are you talking about a lien on your property?\n\nYou will need to check with either your county or state secretary of state and see who keeps track of property liens.  In Michigan, you go to the Sec. of State, but the information is filed at the county level.  There may be a charge for the information.

Liabilities are the opposite of "assets".\n\nAssets are anything that you have that can be converted into cash (land and property are assets, because you can sell them for cash).\n\nLiabilities refers to any cash or item of value that somebody else has a proper cash claim on.  (Commonly, if I buy parts from a supplier but pay for the parts some time later, the cash value of those parts is a liability until I've paid the debt off).\n\nWhen considering accounting, there are three elements: assets, liabilities, and equity.  Assets are all the things of value a company has (cash, land, debt they own -- not issued, etc.) and liabilities offset those assets (debt they've issued, primarily), and what remains is equity, which is the value that belongs exclusively to the shareholders of the company.

Ahem....When you ignore the credit card company, they will give your account to a collection agency.  If you ignore the collection agency, the credit card company will then sell your account and a few hundred other uncollected accounts to a law firm.  The law firm will then send you a demand letter giving you 30 days to pay in full or make payment arrangements.  If you ignore the law firm's letters, the law firm will file suit against you for the amount due on the credit card PLUS the maximum amount of interest allowed by your state, PLUS 25% attorney fees, PLUS all the court costs of filing the suit.  If you are served with the suit papers and then ignore THAT, then the law firm takes a judgment against you and puts a lien on your property and garnishes your wages and garnishes your bank accounts.  Garnishment is usually what makes a debtor stop ignoring the debt.  I have piles of this stuff around me right now.  In fact, I filed three garnishments this morning.

you need to set up two accounts \n\n1- Trust Account (actual money in the account) - Bank Account (separate from operating account)\n2- Trust account payable (your liabilities on the security deposits)- Liabilities\n\nThese two accounts should always be equal\n\nWhen writing Checks and Deposits, do so out of the Trust account and mark it as affecting The Trust Account Payables account.  \n\nIf doing journal entries you must debit one account and credit the other depending on whether you are taking money in or letting money out.\n\nThis will keep your equity equal because as you increase your bank account you are also increasing your liabilities.

its a payment that U set up for an amount to come out at a certian point.  I have a standing order set up for money to come out of my account each month and go into a joint account.  If you call you bank they will be able to explain in more detail.

If there was a lien legally placed against your account, you probably can't get the money already taken back.  But you can try to, by asking the bank for a form to challenge an unauthorized transaction to your account--just tell a teller at the bank that there is an unauthorized withdrawal from your account, that the creditor claims to have a judgment, but that you have never been notified of it.  It is rare, but it does occasionally happen, that a creditor will lie about having a legal lien.  If the bank won't help you with this, you can stop future garnishments, at least for awhile, by getting a new bank account, preferably at a new bank.  \n\nYou can avoid people finding out your bank account numbers by not using checks to pay bills.  The creditor uses the information from your checks to obtain the lien.  Use money orders or travelers checks to pay bills instead.  \n\nIf you get a new account, and it is later garnished, you may have to stop keeping your money in the bank, as unpleasant as that would be.  \n\nI helped a friend with a similar problem recently.  Be sure not to give out your banking information to anybody.  Best wishes getting this straightened out.

The prior poster was correct when they said that it depends on when the liens were filed - "first in time equals first in line" to get paid.  And in some cases, a lien may take priority over the lender (I know of several cases where there were delays in the mortgage company filing the mortgage, so liens took priority).

WHAT THE HECK DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH CREDIT
