Real or Fake Parking Fine?

Well spotted

Although even on their website, it gives the registered address as liverpool and the phone no. of nottingham.

Probably due to the fact they used to be called CIVIL ENFORCEMENT SERVICES LTD and were based in liverpool.

This is what I have found:-

Civil Enforcement Ltd Car, Coach & Lorry Parks

Tel: 0115 822 5020| P.O Box 9366, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire NG4 9BQ

So they seem to be breaking the law by not having the correct address on their paperwork.

Edit,

I have put their company number into Companies House Webcheck and you can see the results here

As you see they are in Liverpool. I imagine they used to be in Nottingham, moved to Liverpool, and have put the Nottingham number onto divert to avoid having two versions of their paperwork with two different phone numbers.

I followed the advise people gave on here and i now have received a letter from Newlyn - Debt collectors, now asking for £236.25 !!!!

What do i do now ???? Still continue to ignore them ????

Help please someone because i could not afford the first charge let alone this new charge of £236.25 !!!

Yup, keep ignoring them - Only respond to properly issued court papers but I serously doubt you will see any.

That is the "expected route" civil enforcement go down.

As advised carry on ignoring everything.

Newlyn will send more threatening letters (watch out for them telling you the debt "may" get registered in the county court - it's just more bluff).

Next one might well tell you which court it will go to but.....magically if you want you can still pay to avoid the court case.

Ignore - it is not going to court, these people lie to you. I know, they did it to me and I phoned the court to get the details. No such case at all.

i would not be able to resist sending it back with "liar liar bums on fire" written on it :rotfl:

oh and by the way the postcode relates to the royal mail depot on westdale lane

We too have had a parking fine from this company this week, charging us £150 or £75 if we pay within 2 weeks! We were actually customers at the KFC in Sheffield but had exceeded the time limit which we weren't aware of. If you Google Civil Enforcement Ltd you will find lots of posts on forums from people in the same situation, the main 2 sites being pepipoo and consumeractiongroup. We intend to just ignore them until they go away.

They "moved" from Nottingham in June 2008.
