newlyn refunded my by mistake
Hi there i was wondering if you could please assist me

i was clamped by newlyn on friday for unpaid parking tickets in Brent it was one ticket - i had already sent a check to brent council but it was late and they have not cashed it so i knew i was in the wrong - i paid 300 cash and 291 on my card as i did not have all the money in my account - the baliff was very nice and drove me to the bank - I am heavily pregnant so he felt quite sorry for me i think. the money i paid on my card has been refunded on my card for some reason and now the baliff has called and left a vmail on my phone- do i need to contact him and pay it back or will this go away? i dont want to pay the £291 - if i can i could send cheques do you think that will be okay?

your bailiff was not being nice he should not have escorted you to the bank as a heavily pregnant woman you may/should be classed as vulnerable according to the national standards for enforcement agents 2002


well for a kick off £591 is far to much to paying for one parking ticket

how many visits have the bailiff made to your home and left a hand delivered letter informing you of there visit
you should also have received a posted letter from newlyn tell you they had been instructed to collect the PCN

were you aware of the PCN before the bailiffs visit (have you moved home recently )

give these people a call its a premium rate phone number and it will cost you approx£10 but its the best advice you will get anywhere

thanks for the quick responce - it was my first post on here so I was not sure how it was going to work - you have been hepful I will check the website and give the number a call - hopefully i wont have to pay the money pack -

I was aware there was a PCN but i had sent a cheque to pay it off and it was not cashed, I should have chased it but i was hoping it would go away

So you did originally pay your fine but they did not cash it nor was it returned to you. Definately a call to bailiffeadvice etc this is right up her street and will be well worth the money.
You could also post this onto pepipoo.com as Herbie trawls there as well.
