Figures vary from PPC to PPC but between 65% to 70% of . claims end in a CCJ simply because people either do not take them seriously or assume the ostrich position.

Let us play numbers then. So, of 100 issued invoices which proceed to County Count, 65>70 end in a CCJ,[thankyou for this, IU].
This is certainly not only because 'because people either do not take them seriously or assume the ostrich position', but also [with due homage to dear Pete'n'Dud], because they don't even know there is fightback potential, nor do they find their way to mse![other brands are available:-)]
For all who decry Early Day Motions generally, and EDM458 in particular, every sniff of publicity hits ppc duplicity.
Again, the Fabian 'inevitability of gradualness' or Dave Brailsford's 'marginal improvements/ incremental gains' sing from the same hymn sheet.
So what if an MP trumpets his/her/Party support for perceived personal glory? Would you prefer indifference or refusal?
Here endeth this lesson.

bargepole - re; 'ignorance and stupidity'
The first is what this Forum tries to enlighten.
The second is an opinion.
No-one on any public forum should let familiarity with issues breed contempt for genuine posters seeking advice.

Sorry for my late response, I've just come back home, and thanks a lot for all your replies! Really didn't expect so many.. even if it is such bad news

So my only option is too pay or get a CCJ? Gonna have to put some possessions up on eBay
If anyone knows anything else i can do that would be appreciated.
I genuinely didn't get to open most of these letters while i was at uni anyway, because while i still officially lived at home i spent 90% of my time at my girlfriends, and took the advice of a friend that these things were usually just scare tactics and it was best to ignore0 -
Perhaps the friend will chip in a tenner?Dedicated to driving up standards in parking0

hope the friend wasnt a law degree student
suggest you and this "friend" bone up on the PE versus Barry Beavis case, and then on the fact PE issue over thirty THOUSAND court claims a year in the small claims court
as bargepole says, its already a judgment and so if you dont pay a CCJ will ensue and then possibly bailiffs , possibly even the sheriffs as seen on telly
this is serious, so take note0 -
Haha wish but its really on me for choosing to listen0

Maybe so, but presumably you'll put the idiot right and try to ensure they don't dispense such ill-educated shiite to anyone else.
Get them to come on here to justify their advice. Waiting................!Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

The first mistake was using a business that employs this parking firm.
Stay out and stay away, the companies that let this firm sue its customers for the crime of spending your money with them are making it very clear.
They do not want your custom, ignore this advice and end up with a CCJ.
Stay away from any PE car park, the risks are too great.

Ignoring court papers...OMG the threads on here get worse. Depressing reading when all people need to do is Google what to do just a tad earlier (when you got the PCN would have been a good plan). You are up the creek without a paddle and your money has gone to that greedy bunch of chancers for no reason at all.
OMG, 'scare tactics' you thought? A 'Judgment for Claimant' after you binned the court papers and never defended it...I do hope your degree wasn't in a research based subject, sorry but this is terrible. I despair.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

op - that was such a lazy letdown on your part, not at all what I expected to read.
Basic intellectual curiosity and need-to-know immediately demands:
'So even if that IS true, what happens to the others?'
That is screamingly obvious to me: I'm sorry it wasn't to you. Any answer or none would have sent me scurrying to find out, to be sure for myself.
Snake oil merchants thrive on such gullibility - as do ppc's.
