Standard Letter to PPC's

There are 1000's of us on here being very repetitive and explaining the circumstances as to why we got an invoice from these scum, and how do we handle it.

I think we should have a competition as to who can write the best standard letter in response to requests to make the PPC's very happy and wealthy. the winning letter to be made a download on here and encourage everyone to use it. The PPC's, seeing the same letter coming to them over and over again will get so wound up. I would love to be a fly on thier scummy wall when this happens. It's time to pull together and really go on the attack. some feedback please

    Don't waste your time and money on paper, stamps, and envelopes. Let them do that.

    What might be more fun is a national PPC baiting day in which everyone goes and parks somewhere that's patrolled and warns of penalty charges, in complete ignorance of the terms and conditions. The more people do it the better. Then the PPC's will send lots of money to the DVLA to get our details. They will send lots of pointless letters at cost and cost of man hours. We will not pay their silly invoice and will stick it in the bin along with the rest of their letters :) If enough people do this then eventually outgoings will exceed incomings and the bosses of these companies might not be getting a turkey on their christmas table.

    PPCs WANT you to contact them. That's why the phoney appeals process exists (as well as an attempt to add legitimacy).

    The way to deal with the scamsters is to NEVER contact them. Sending letters through the post and not receiving any replies is an enormous and infuriating waste of time for them.
  • So far with all my invoices, I have sent just one response letter and they have never responded further. I just like the idea that they see us banding together and sticking 2 fingers up in a way that will really p**s them off. maybe some more ideas will flow. Got to be honest, I enjoy contacting them and annoying them
