Yeah all the Rk DVLA stuff is usual bollox from them.

Don't waste your effort 'playing with them'

If APCOA's signage is up to its usual standards then they will have shot themselves in the foot from the outset. They have been apt to make it clear on their signs elsewhere that charges are intended as penalties - which gives them zero wriggle room. just take some photos of the signs next time you're in. As already advised do not waste your time in making contact with them in any shape or form. Only in the extremely slim eventuality of you receiving a county court claim form should you come back here for more detailed guidance.

I have had my 2nd letter from Roxburghe. In this one they make reference to be careful about all the information presented on forums on the internet- maybe this one?

Another scare tactic?

Yes just a useless ploy

Let's face it if it was a real debt, do you think a real debt collector would say to ignore forums ? Of course not, they would just ask you to pay and how to pay etc, the point is forums like this are killing their scam, everyday more and more people ignore and learn the truth.

If you answer ie appeal they will ignore it anyway and they'll crank up the frequency of their letters and threats

I've just received a Parking Enforcement Notice from APCOA at Luton Airport ''For the alleged contravention of 02-Entry into a bus lane''. I was Just carrying out a rapid ''collect'' operation from the roundabout in front of the arrivals building. Didn't see the need to go through their 'set-down' area and pay £1 for the priviledge! Based on all the advice here I intend to ignore the "Parking Enforcement Notice" for now but I will upload a copy of the notice to the list of PPC's listed here on the forum as I do not see APCOA listed.

Watch this advice from watchdog because they mentioned Luton Airport

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b0108tsj/Watchdog_07_04_2011/

Then read this excellent article by them

http://www.bbc.co.uk/watchdog/consumer_advice/parking_ticket_advice.shtml

Then come back here with your decision on what you should do

Correct ...except for the 'for now' bit. The correct solution is " Based on all the advice here I intend to ignore the "Parking Enforcement Notice" for EVER AND EVER AND EVER AND EVER... until they stop after about 4 letters.
