    Thank you for your quick response.

    I have started a new thread with a little more detail but as a new user am not allowed to paste in a link.

  • Hi all,

    I have read this thread and countless others which have been really helpful. I appreciate this is a thread for information purposes only so have created my own new thread for any responses.

    I have recieved a letter from Miah Solicitors on behalf of UKCPS. More info is on the new thread mentioned.

    My main question is how do you actually know if this is a LBA or another 'scare letter'.

    There is not title stating Letter Before Action. The letter does refer to Practice Direction and Pre-Action Conduct and does state I have 14 days to either pay or respond (iIt has taken a full week to arrive at my door as they used 2nd class post).

    Any help would really be appreciated as I have no Legal experience at all.

    Such a letter needs to be titled as such (so I believe).

    Miah do not send out LBAs. They are not acting as solicitors for the PPC - they are acting as debt collectors, and misrepresenting themselves as solicitors. (Hence why it is recommended to report them to the SRA).
  • Just started a new thread entitled Letter before county court claim- hospital parking on 14/8/2015 - if anyone could possibly help with that please.
