VCS now Rossendales Collect parking at Doncaster Airport

Do not confuse debt collectors with bailiffs.


Debt collectors have no more powers than I do to make you pay them.

Hi no I havent appealed as unfortunately when i received the first letter i read old posts which said you should just ignore them. Still dont know what to do for the best, dont really want to pay as I feel they just like to put the fear of god into people as they have me now with this debt collector letter so that people are scarred into paying the robbing dogs!

Please calm down - this is far from unique and it is all we can do to remain so patient tonight, answering ENDLESS threads about debt collector letters when that's not really the point of this forum board and not the important stuff - it's not as if we can give you POPLA advice seeing as you missed POPLA and are in 'ignore mode'.

Just read other threads exactly like yours - loads of people miss POPLA, so what?! What do you think people did before POPLA existed? That's right they ignored the whole letter chain, me included, I laughed at the letters and still keep them in my handbag to show colleagues (I am just a wife and Mum but when I first landed on this forum board it merely took a bit of reading of threads to learn that the debt collector threatograms are all just drivel). It's not exactly a sophisticated scam to waste your life over!

One search of the keyword 'Rossendales' shows you hundreds of other threads like this. We know they are 'new' to you but for the sake of a forum search of the single keyword 'Rossendales' you would have put this stupid scam to bed by now and moved on. Even if you sent them the best replies in the World you won't stop the letter chain, but who cares? You are wasting your time worrying about it and posting about it and replying to them. This is a letter chain people have ignored for YEARS before POPLA ever existed. You missed a trick over POPLA, ''so what, it's only VCS and Rossendales and the keeper is NOT liable anyway'' is the reply!

Try this as a Google search (it will do the search itself):

That's what the 'PPC letter chains' sticky thread is for, to show people the sorts of letters to ignore if you've missed POPLA - and to avoid cluttering up the forum with repetition about the letters (there are loads recently on here but thousands over the years and there are only so many words we can say that mean 'ignore this drivel'):

As you can see people have ignored these for many years, a decade approximately! Look at the dates on the links that still work in the OLD pre-Oct Letter chains link to an old MSE thread of pictures, linked under 'PPC letter chains' in those forum stickies. Look at the boring letter chain, see it for what it is - file all the letters in a folder just in case VCS ever follow this up with a small claim (defendable and not a big deal). Just forget this unless you get small claim papers - in which case post here & we'll help with that (small claims are rare but a more pressing issue than talking about debt collector letters we've seen umpteen times every week on here). If you pay you would be a mug. Are you really that sort of victim? Come on, get a grip please - and in particular a firm grip on your money, don't throw it at a cowboy industry!
