    And people still think that debt collectors mean something. Sad.

    Yes is sad people take it so seriously when nothing has changed (this thread from 2007 is still true):

    same here. Received a letter this morning from Rossendales out of the blue. Back in 2010 I was being chased for a parking 'fine' by Excel/ Roxburghe/ Graham White. I ignored all contact because the alleged infringement happened in a car park in a place I have never been. I kept all of the letters sent to me back in 2010 and looks like there will be another stream this year.
    I too have received a letter this weekend after 4 years of nothing glad to hear I am not alone I still have all the original paperwork and was advised by my local MP not to pay years ago so will wait for my next letter :)
  • I too have received a letter this week from Rossendales regarding a PCN issued by Excel from approximately 4 years ago so feel relieved to know it's not just me! Wasn't sure if to respond in writing or just to ignore as initially I'm worried about someone just turning up on my doorstep.

    Thanks Mothballs - I did have a look at the Newbies thread but to be honest there were so many things there I started to get confused. I'll have another look tho. I didnt realise that Popla only applied to more recent cases. Sorry for posting in this thread, but I thought seeing as we're all talking about old cases that my questions would be relevant to other people as well.

    Exactly the same thing happened to me yesterday and all of the posts have really helped ease my mind, so thank you.
