It is £80 or £140 in 2 weeks. These are starting to really annoy me as im sure u can imagine as I am receiving them every 3 weeks.
It's annoying but just carry on ignoring them. Even more-so being in Scotland. More info to put your mind at rest on post 4 on the sticky guides.
As mentioned previously, you may want to keep the letters for a rainy day.0 -
Thanks, I just want them to stop and obviously every letter I receive I get slightly more worried
Edited to add does this make any difference as I am from Scotland as I am aware the laws are different in Scotland and England0 -

Yes, in Scotland you can ignore them from the very first minute. In England you are best to appeal (and win) via the appropriate channels.
Info from the sticky reads:

Apart from (of course!!) complaining to the landowner/retailer you should IGNORE your fake PCN unless you are not the registered keeper and that is a company (hire car or leased/company vehicle).* You are safe to ignore because there is no worthwhile appeals process - do not believe what the fake PCN says! This Watchdog video still applies in Scotland and NI because a PPC has to know who was driving (unlike in England/Wales now):

WHEN IGNORING IN SCOTLAND/NI, KEEP ALL LETTERS. DO NOT THROW THEM AWAY EVEN IF YOU HAVE MADE A PAPER AEROPLANE FROM THEM!"
Don't panic or worry about it.0 -
Always ignore in Scotland. And next time leave the car at home rather than leave it alone in Glasgow. ;-)0
