    Here's my 'problem' I am battling with the thought that it is unpolite to reply! i know it's very british but one half of me says write back even to reply. So sad, i know.
    Also, what i do not want to happen is they keep ramping it up with debt collectors costs so they can then make a so called genuine claim in court. No point making a claim for £50, so we'll keep sending debt collectors and add the charge to the 'debt'. This makes it worthwhile going to court.

    What do you think?
    Get ONE THING STRAIGHT THIS IS NOT A DEBT it is an UNENFORCEABLE INVOICE, you treat it exactly as you do with a Nigerian 419 email, Ignore. If you want to contact them go ahead but be prepared to part with the thick end of £2,000 by the time they have demanded increased UNENFORCEBLE PRIVATE PENALTIES for late payment, and whatever welse they think they can scam out of you.

    And you can all gave that same advice without even knowing who manages the car parks the OP was in.

    WOW! Do you all do the lottery numbers as well?

    Athena (Lidls)
    and

    Think it speaks for itself really! Do you actually read posts before you put your drivel in a post ?
    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?

    Rest assured that nobody is telling you to do something that we have done ourselves. This is why we can advise with total confidence that you can ignore these Mickey Mouse 'fines'.

    Exactly what i wanted to hear! Thanks:beer:

    And you stand a much better chance of winning the lottery than being taken to court by your PPC pals!

    By the way op, the word that you are looking for is impolite not unpolite. It's equally impolite of the PCC to send unsolicited demands for money.
    I can afford anything that I want.
    Just so long as I don't want much.
