Cp plus parking fine

Options
I recieved a parking fine from a company called cp plus. The fine was issued to my partners old address and also in my partners name as he is the registered keeper of the car although i was the one driving it at the time. Weve only seen these letters now and they have also sent another letter claiming from a debt company called drp to recover the costs. They keep highlighting the eye v beavis court case.... Is this to be taken seriously??

    What exactly have you received form CP plus?
    Where was the parking ticket issued?
    and for what reason?
    From the Plain Language Commission:

    "The BPA has surely become one of the most socially dangerous organisations in the UK"

    The DRPlus letters, no.

    Any court claim, yes of course = very defendable. And if you are in Scotland, unheard of.

    Your partner the registered keeper - NOT THE DRIVER - shoudl email DRPlus and CP Plus (email is on the PCN) and DRPlus is:

    info@drpl.co.uk (you MUST put their ref in the subject line and it differes from the PCN number which you also need to state, as well as the VRN)

    Anyway the KEEPER emails to say:

    I wasn't the driver, cannot be held liable in law and the driver will NOT be named so he declines that invitation to name the party in charge of the vehicle, as is my right.

    Then say, they are writing to the wrong address anyway, my new address is:

    xxxx
    xxxx
    xxxxx
    xxxxx


    And finish by telling them that he is aware that CP Plus do not use the POFA 2012 Schedule 4 statutory wording so as confirmed by the DVLA and POPLA, cannot hold a keeper liable. As such, both DRPlus and CP Plus must treat this as a Section 10 Notice under the DPA, properly served by email. As such, he requires that they cease processing his data and respond in accordance with the DPA, within 21 days to confirm that his data is removed from all records. Tell them that his data was only supplied by the DVLA for the sole purpose of inviting the keeper to name the driver and this has been declined, so they cannot step beyond that data purpose, cannot pursue a keeper and cannot harass a non-driver either.


    DO NOT REPLY AS DRIVER!
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
