having duly ignored the ticket and three debt collection letters, i have now received a solitors letter saying they will take me to the county court and will instruct baliffs to seize goods at my address. This is naturally very scary, should i write to solicitor or what to do now? Sorry for being such a wuss but any suggestions would be appreciated. thanks.xx

Ignore it and wait and see if a summons arrives which is doubtfull anyway.
It's not just about the money0 -
Trethowans or the equally famous 'Graham White' ?
Either should be treated with the same contempt.0 -
Yup - Keep ignoring it. The chances of them following through with it are very slim.
And remember they can't do any of it unless they have won in court & you have ignored a period to pay-up, which is even less likely TBH.0 -
... I have now received a solicitors letter saying they will take me to the county court and will instruct baliffs to seize goods at my address.
This sounds like more PPC wishful thinking (ie they wish they had an arguable case), so ignore this tosh until and unless a properly stamped court claim form arrives (which is very, very, very unlikely).
I have been providing assistance, including Lay Representation at Court hearings (current score: won 57, lost 14), to defendants in parking cases for over 5 years. I have an LLB (Hons) degree, and have a Graduate Diploma in Civil Litigation from CILEx. However, any advice given on these forums by me is NOT formal legal advice, and I accept no liability for its accuracy.0 -
if it says will instrict bailiffs then report them to the Solicitors Regulators Authority.0

Is the solicitor registered at the same address as the ticket company, by chance?0

thanks for all the replies will just sit tight. incidentally solicitors are not at same address and letter says may intruct baliffs. But you have put my mind to rest will let you know if anything else transpires. xxx0
