Well, I followed the advice of those kind enough to give it on here, and have now been issued with legal proceedings. So thank you very much, great help...

Have you actually received proper stamped court papers, or just a meaningless letter which says they might take you to court?

Firstly, have you been issued with proper court papers from a County Court... or just another threat letter saying they are intending to start legal proceedings?

If you have been issued with court papers have you contacted the court and checked that they are genuine? You should!!! It is not unheard that some PPC's send out fake court looking court papers as a final tactic.

If you really have been issued court papers then don't worry, you will, with the help from this and the https://www.pepipoo.com forum, most probably win your case.

So, please check out and answer the above questions and re-post when you have the answers.

When we know if we are genuinely dealing with a county court, then we can start to help you.

...and calm down... hacking people off on this forum will not help you if indeed they are taking a punt at you in County Court and we can help you!

Trust us and you will still not be paying them anything!

... or are you a PPC troll????

I've received two pink letters from ICC Legal services both telling me to pay within the next 7 days or I will have either court proceedings or baliffs sent round. How can I realistically get out of this without paying when I only have 7 days?

So you haven't actually received court papers. All you have received is yet more meaningless letters from a powerless debt collector. They just cannot "send bailiffs around". A bailiff is an "officer of the court" and for them to get involved the case would have to go to court (very unlikely) you lose (very, very unlikely) and THEN you refuse to pay whatever the judge orders.

Don't confuse them with debt collectors who are just private citizens with no special powers. They cannot enter your property, they cannot seize goods and they cannot blacken your credit record over a private parking ticket.

Before we go any further do you or don't you have sealed (stamped) court papers?

No he does not, they have now sent the dreaded
PINK BOLD letters to him, which the OP has mistaken for "legal proceedings".

Be very very careful, they may use the
GREEN BOLD letters next and the even the
RED BOLD letters, oh no not the red bold letters.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Listen unless you get stamped sealed court papers from the COURT.
Ignore these muppets, if you do not understand the word ignore, any CHILD can demonstrate how to ignore...Copy what they do.

So what would the action be if I were to receive court letters? You're saying very unlikely, but why? I've looked at the "evidence" online of my parking charges, and neither apply- one states I was parked on double yellow lines/in a hatched area, and the picture completely disproves this!
Surely if I did refuse to pay what the judge orders they'd have rights against me? At the end of the day, I just don't want nonesense like this affecting my career.

My my, aren't we a patronising little keyboard warrior. Ignorning is a good solution; if I choose to ignore your sarcastic, unhelpful posts it won't irritate me any further.

It's a bit worrying that someone applying to the police force doesn't know what a letter from a court looks like.
