    Was the original ticket windscreen placed or through the post ?
    Dates of all correspondence ?
    Are you the RK and were you driving ?

    Do you mean you have a POPLA appeal already in, and yet still got a threatogram?
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    hi i have tried uploading the letter but it is not working.
    the original ticket was through the post but i chose to ignore because of reading old posts but recently found a more up to date thread with templates, so i sent 1 letter to g24 appealing, and 1 to the debt recovery plus, both templates were found on 'coupon mads' newbies thread

    thank you

    not sure why you would be worried about letters from DR+ , they can do nothing and there is a very long post telling you about debt collectors etc in the NEWBIES thread at the top of the page

    the time to be "worried" is if you received an LBC or court papers from northampton or salford , until then its merely words on paper, sometimes black , sometimes red , but never anything to "worry" about

    have a read of this similar thread for greater clarity https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/4950597

    Standard DRPlus bumpf - can be safely ignored

    Sounds like you submitted a late appeal. G24 are under no obligation to accept it - could if they were minded to but you are unlikely to get a POPLA code out of them.

    G24 have never taken anyone to court over an unpaid PCN so far and you would be highly unlucky to be the first.

    You need to read the NEWBIES thread post #4 debt collector stage

    You will receive a number of similar letters before they give up.
    The only ones to watch out for are a Letter Before County Court issued by G24 or a solicitor acting for them or actual County Court Papers - though the chance you will get either is minimal

    Edit: Apologies for the xover Redx

    just file all the paperwork (for 6 years) , and any more from g24 or dr+ , UNLESS its a popla code , or an LBC or court papers

    if you read this forum you will find dozens of similar threads going back years

    another one on here today https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/4956050

    Just note that at 5 1/2 years you will start to get pathetic bullying phone calls from the monkeys at G24 - just laugh and hang up.
