PPC League of Shame - The most ignored???

Just as a way of demonstrating to new victims of the PPC scam that ignoring the shysters is the correct way to go I thought it might be worth having a thread where we can list our successes.
Obviously we don't want to get too specific here and help the PPC trolls so I suggest we just list which PPC you ignored, how many times they have tried to 'fine' you and how many letters you ignored each time.
So to get things rolling.
========================================
CP Plus
2 Attempts to scam me.
3 letters per attempt.
Ignored them all. They've given up.

G24 ( unsurprisingly ! )
2 con attempts
First time 3 letters and second time 2 letters if memory serves me.
Plus - I now patrol the local Parking Eye "protected" car park warning people of the unenforceability of their invoices so I guess I can claim a few other ignores as well !All aboard the Gus Bus !0 -
Euro Car Parks - one fake PCN (3 letters) completely ignored.
And I put notes behind any fake PCN I see on a windscreen, giving details of why it's a scam fake ticket and details of this forum and pepipoo. Britannia and ECP are local enough in several car parks for me to scupper their little game when I see one of their 'flyers' on a car.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

UKPAO, dozens, but they refuse to even give me one now, I even find the parrot faced goon in his little silver fiesta and ask him for a ticket telling him I am off for a walk around the town , he just ignores me.
The car park in question has stipulated planning consent that it offers free parking to surrounding businesses as well as those on the retail park, so I would love to see them try court...Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature.
