    Thank you everyone. I did Google and DRL have got a pretty slick website so I wasn't sure if they were genuine. I did read the newbie thread so thank you so much for writing it. I just wanted to double check with someone 'live' so to speak because there has been an 18 months gap between the original charge and this new lot of letters. What a pain these companies are! Thank you again ��

    When you Google a firm, do you honestly just go to their website? When I said Google Debt Recovery Plus I meant Google them properly...not bothering with their own website of course! Researching a scam means digging up the dirt, going back pages on Google...reading forums like this and pepipoo.

    Try Google images for pics of their stupid letters, and read other results, not stuff they wrote!

    :D
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

  • Ummm, yes I did have a look at their website. I wanted to know if they were a legitimate company. I did look through other websites but there isn't a lot that I could see. Sorry. I guess I'm too trusting. If someone says they are something I tend to believe them.

    Now you are wise to this scam, please tell everyone you know what to do if they get a private parking ticket (ie, come here) sign the petition below, and encourage everyone you know to sign it as well.
