UKCPS 10 Day notice

pleasehelp2

Hi everyone
I wonder if you could help me please

I received a parking charge notice to keeper through the post for overstaying in a carpark by 9 mins a charge of £60.00. I replied with the template letter from the flow chart on the sticky challenging the notice as the keeper not the driver and appealing I have proof of postage from the post office and a copy of the letter I sent.

I have now received a 10 day notice before court asking for £125.00. I have had no other correspondence from them acknowledging my letter or rejecting the appeal.

Please could someone advise me what to do

Thank you in advance

Did any of this documentation mention v.a.t.? If not why not ask for a v.a.t. compliant invoice? Further reading

how do you know its 10 days , have you got STAMPED court papers FROM THE COURT , or are they bluffing that they will see you in court , in a hyperthetical number of days?

pleasehelp2

Its on UKCPS headed paper saying that it is a 10 day notice before the matter is issued to Court.

It says the parking charge appears to remain unpaid and they are now at the beginning stages of issuing a court claim and this will happen after 10 days and 'We are required by law to deal with this process in the correct legal way, this is called Pre Action Conduct and Practice Directions.'

It is signed UKCPS Legal Section

Should I pay?

If it were me, I'd be on the phone to ask why they did with the letter and if necessary send them a copy with a copy of the proof. Was it a certificate of postage or sign for delivery?

Certificate of posting, that's what the sticky said to do

Send a complaint to the IPC including copies of your proof of posting. I haven't seen what the IPC do about complaints yet but this should attract a sanction.

Also cc in the DVLA. The IPC are newbies at having DVLA access and need to behave a little bit. If the DVLA gets enough complaints they may have to consider taking action.

Very true. But courts do care and a paper trail is a wonderful thing. If they refuse an ADR court action is unreasonable.
