Umkomaas, Thanks for the assurance. You are correct, I'm worried as I have a (now paid) default on my credit rating from when I lost my job over 5 years ago which is due to come off my credit file later this year. The last thing I want is a CCJ ruining my last 5 years of keeping everything on my file perfect.

Look, what's going on here is as follows:

1. Excel has farmed this out to ZZPS to harass you, and ZZPS will get a bung of a few quid from Excel if they make you pay up

2. Right Hassle is getting a bung of a few quid from ZZPS for allowing ZZPS to send out threatening letters using the Right Hassle letterhead

3. Excel knows nothing about the letters supposedly from Right Hassle, they are entirely down to ZZPS

4. For that matter nor does Right Hassle, since it's actually ZZPS sending them

5. The 'phone number on the Right Hassle letters is not Right Hassle's 'phone number. It looks like it is because it's the same dialling code, but if you call it you'll actually be speaking to ZZPS.

6. And if you write to Right Hassle they'll just forward it to ZZPS

7. ZZPS cannot take legal action against you because they have no claim against you

8. And since Right Hassle states that their client is ZZPS (not Excel), Right Hassle can't take action against you either.

9. Excel rarely takes legal action (287 times in 2014 out of tens-of-thousands of fake fines issued) but if they did they probably wouldn't use Right Hassle.


Does that help explain the tricks these scumbags are using to intimidate you?

bazster, Thank you for the clear guidance.

I have had a look at the letters received and you are correct. ZZPS quote their client as "Excel Parking Services Ltd" while the letters from Wright Hassall have "ZZPS Ltd" as their client.

The telephone number on their letters is not the same number on their website either.

I'll give you one guess to whom you'll be speaking if you call that number!

Never phone a Debt Collector - damn, I've just given you a clue!

A complaint to the SRA should be made.
If this Solicitors firm are so desperate for work they have to grub in the dirt for it with a PPC they deserve what they get.

Complain to the SRA that the solicitor has sent you what appears to be an invoice for a contract that does not exist.
But primarily they have sought to charge you for the legal services they are supplying to this client to the sum of £18.
Demand the SRA make the Solicitors produce any contract or instruction which would merit them to charge you for work or "admin fees"
Put it again as they like to skip read the complaint bit.
I have NO CONTRACT with theses solicitors so therefore they should not be sending me invoices for "admin" work.
Demand they get an apology from the Solicitor for trying to charge you for work they are doing for "Some other people somewhere in England "
Or produce a contract and whilst they are on with it, explain to the SRA what it is they claim to be writing to me about and where is that contract, or is that two contracts they invented ? .
Add that the actions of this solicitor in demanding money by menace and threat has caused you alarm and distress.

Await them to send the standard "fob off Reply which allows them to close the complaint in 14 days and then contact them again saying the complaint is not satisfied in any way shape or form and remains open as a complaint.
Then they have to look at it.

As for Wright Hassle, stop trying to charge random people for work you do for other people if you do not want reporting.

Marktheshark,

Thanks. Should I follow this guide http://www.sra.org.uk/consumers/problems/report-solicitor.page#how-complain or is there a MSE template that would be better?

I've sent you a template by PM which includes Mark's point plus several additional points.

Could you please send me that Same letter? I'm in the exact same situation as the original poster in this thread. Received a letter from these scumbags on behalf of their scumbag clients this morning (same clients too - Excel/ZZPS or whatever). They also added an "£18 administration fee", and are now asking for £168 for payment for breaching a non existing contract.

I'd appreciate it if you could help me, and I'll make the same complaint.

Thanks in advance!

aaarrrggh, you have a PM.
