    Another letter asking for even more money containing more empty threats.

    Looking at this thread: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/2214803 It seems that UKPC send out 5 letters

    Well you will get another begging letter from them, then passed onto a powerless debt collector threatening ccj's and your credit rating if not paid , then onto solicitors saying you owe £250 odd, then as you have ignored all the junk mail they give up and look for a mug who will pay !

    So just ignore them all, it will not go any further !
    Excel Parking, MET Parking, Combined Parking Solutions, VP Parking Solutions, ANPR PC Ltd, & Roxburghe Debt Collectors. What do they all have in common?
    They are all or have been suspended from accessing the DVLA database for gross misconduct!
    Do you really need to ask what kind of people run parking companies?
  • Thanks to all for your advice hungrhorace

    Its not a hope , it's certainty that they this will go no further than junk mail, ask your hubby to come and read the forum, pay attention to the sticky threads, and view the watchdog video on youtube
