    Did you go and get further advice as posted above months ago ? As mentioned you can't ignore this, and if bailiffs are involved the costs are going to shoot up

    they have sent bailiff to my old address (i have moved in with gf) as my old neighbour called to say baliff has been round as person living there has asked if I could sort it so don't come around to them again. Is there any way of them finding out where I live now? If not i shall continue to ignore.

    well the best way to stop all this is to pay up, you cannot be bothered to listen to advice or do the slightest thing to help yourself.

    You now have a CCJ against you which will make getting credit more difficult and the poor person living at your old address is getting your hassle. time to man up and act responsibly. If you could have been bothered to listen on here or Pepipoo things could have been much more different.

    Hope you have a different car as when the warrant is returned the PPC will inform the bailiffs you car is at your G/F address (if they still monitor that area) and you will find it clamped, plus if you where to remove this one you would be in the deepest doo doo pile.

    Next stop should be bailiffadviceonline, small fee but she is the bees knees on bailiffs.

    I love this forum. 50% of the time its good advice or discussion and the other 50% of the time are like these threads.

    You ask yourself.... Is this guy real? Or is this fake?


    Seriously, firstly ignores multiple fines on his car, has cut off a clamp at least once, continued to park where he knew he could get a car just out of ignorance, stupidity or dumb defiance because he believed it wouldn't stick.

    Then a court summons comes..... as there presumably lots of fines/charges and they believe its worth the hassle chasin him for a ccj.

    What does he do? Ignore it.... like the fines

    Then a judgement is issue (now its serious and official!) what does he do? Ignore it.


    Then baliffs come around hunting for him at old address. What does he do? Ignore it. Probably believing they wont catch up with him eventually but they will.


    I wonder if all the while he is parking illegally still lol. Probably £300 worth of fines has escalted into the thousands area.


    You sir are my hero for thread enjoyment.. you have displayed sheer ignorance and laziness that i question if an individual can exist who doesn't care about his finances at all. Ok so you can ignore it now,its worked so far but say 3-5 years later when you and the girlfriend may want a credit card, or a loan or a mortgage... what are the finance company going to do to you? Ignore you.... Sweet irony don't you say?

    Jeez.

    The only problem with the above is that they are not fines or penalties. But I do question whether this is real or not

    One of the 'issues' with this forum, and others like it, is that people from the pakring 'industry' will lok thorugh it, and in some cases report fake problems, often ending in something like this : " the forum told me to ignore, i ignored everything the baliffs came and now they are reposessing my house and im going to be homeless - all thanks to the bad advice on mse"

    If you get an understanding of how things work, the general advice has always been not to ignore genuine court papers.
    Court papers for private parking tickets a must be acted upon, if ignoreed then default judgements, CCJ's balifs etc etc will possibly follow - together with a gloat form the PPC.
