    That undoubtedly *went missing in the post* - if she hadn't received it. ;)
    My very sincere apologies for those hoping to request off-board assistance but I am now so inundated with requests that in order to do justice to those "already in the system" I am no longer accepting PM's and am unlikely to do so for the foreseeable future (August 2016). :(

    For those seeking more detailed advice and guidance regarding small claims cases arising from private parking issues I recommend that you visit the Private Parking forum on PePiPoo.com

    Might be worth the OP (and/or Fawkes) dropping a line to MIL to let them know their little wheeze has been rumbled:

    Dear Sirs

    According to the "goodbye" letter I received from them, the company you have supposedly bought this alleged debt from is registered company number 9091690. I presume this was actually intended to read 09091690, which is Car Park Management Services (CPMS) Limited (not "Car Park Management Services" as your purported notice of assignment states).

    Unfortunately for you Car Park Management Services (CPMS) Limited was not incorporated until 18th June 2014, so it is impossible for me to have any debt to that company dating back to 2013. I hope you didn't pay too much for this non-debt!

    Now that you are apprised of the facts I will treat any further attempt by you to collect this non-existent debt from me as a misleading and aggressive business practice contrary to the Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 and I will report the matter to Trading Standards accordingly.


    ok think this is a good letter do you all think I should do this would love to know what you think before I send it

    Suggest:
    'and I am copying Trading Standards into all correspondence accordingly. '

    That keeps it suitably vague as to what you do finally send them, but definitely include them now, not later.
    A nomb? - why isn't your daughter doing this now? Her response, as reported, showed a brisk sensible grasp of the basics.

    if you look at the link I posted above , http://forums.pepipoo.com/index.php?showtopic=98867


    you will see an excellent letter penned by "gan" , obviously you do not copy/paste this , you edit it to use your own details and alter sentences , so that it does not looks like internet reply
  • That's my thread, I was unaware of this forum at the time!

    I will update both though with any reply I get from MIL

    Thanks
