    Are your work happy to simply pass the letters on to you? There may be some misrepresentation in the letters that may claim that your work company are liable for the charge (they most definitely aren't though). Will work be OK with ignoring everything and passing it on to you?

    OK, you should be fine then. Just ignore all the letters.

    The sticky one in this situation is that sometimes the employer pays up and docks the employees wages, thinking its a real ticket, but you seem to have this covered.

    You will receive a series of threatening letters about court action, CCJs, bad credit rating, bailiffs, kidnapping your cat, and so on. Its all absolute bluff, and merely designed to scare you. Legally you owe them diddly squat.

    Eventually they will give up and go away.

    Thanx manx red feel reassured now they'll get nothing off me
  • Assessing the 'damages' at say £60 is itself a double irony in the case of Doncaster. If you dropped an atomic bomb on Doncaster and wiped it out entirely it still wouldnt have done £60 worth of damage.

    It would actually have caused £60 worth of improvements.

    After it was approved by the Escape Committee, presumably.

    Not bad actually it's like a clean version of Leeds/Bradford with better parking.
