After submitting some paperwork.
Me: it took a vary long time to get through
Them: yes we are very busy at the moment
Me: Are you getting many of these cases at the moment?
Them: inundated.
Me: It must be frustrating is it all these it can't just ,,,
Them: ,,,From the moment the phones open at 9!!
Me: Annoying then?
Them: very.
Me: is there any one there that i can complain with or voice my objections?
Them: Speak to your Mp. Your Mp is the only.er Its the only way that we can...
get a ...parliament.
A voice to parliament.
Me: ok I will try that then.
Them. Thanks
Me: no thanks for your help
so thats it everybody The only way to get any assistance with stopping this outrageous use of public funds to feather very nasty nests with a corrupt practice is to complain to your Mp.
Maybe as soon as you have printed off your defence (with all the great assistance form here ) send a letter or email to your MP, its that simple. You have probably spent hours doing research on this board and others so another 10 minutes to send an email or print a letter is not much at all and may go some way to stopping this utter gangsterism. it is no more than demanding money with menaces and using your own and others tax payer funds in which to do it. no more no less.
Perhaps greater more knowledgable minds than mine can draft a specific detailed letter to copy and paste so that it can be done quickly in future? Any takers ?
If there are enough responses and people think its a good idea i am willing to help with this and will start the ball rolling as soon as i can.

this topic has been brought up many times over the last few years
I myself wrote to my MP 2 or 3 years ago and he spoke about it in the house of commons , and the DoT fobbed him and me off too
so yes we agree with you , but dont assume this is new because I am sure there have been drafts on here before0 -
We keep telling people who to complain to as seen here

Totally agree - I will build this into the NEWBIES thread.
I think we SHOULD tell people to write to their MP every time. Bombard them.
By the way to regulars, what were the two other things I promised to update into the NEWBIES thread, please, anyone recall? They were in recent weeks, June or July.
One was by Jonersh and one by LoadsofChildren123 and I recall typing that I would update the NEWBIES thread - now I can't find those posts/ideas. I got distracted by a ''new'' poster with a different agenda than the rest of us (now gone).PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

ok guys yes redx I'm sure that you the generous and devoted contributors have done it all before and lots it seems .
i just thought it needs reiterating (constantly it seems !!) to take more action, frustratingly so by the looks of things and bizarrely many times over as the amount of views and advice offered on here cannot transfer into affirmative action via parliament or they would be inundated!! just like the ccbc are.
Maybe a mantra response perhaps yes the draft looks good now write to your MP, here is a draft letter or something. i might be being naive but might be worth a try.
Beamerguy thats very useful and i for one will be going down that route.
i will post again when i have more info
Thanks gain for all your help0 -

There has never been a better time to get cross party members
to voice this in the house.
The KEY word is "SCAM" allowed by government
Never be worried about what you say to government, they are only employees
of the public and we have all seen what the public can do recently
What we do not need is a copy and paste letter which is forum written.
Letters must individual from the heart0 -
This is a very good idea.
What we really need are some statistics to back up the complaints. For example, the number of county court claims, hearings and CCJs by PPCs or their minions issued in each of the last few years (since 2012). Ditto for the number of KADOE and V888/3 requests to DVLA for registered keeper details.
Does anyone know of any recent FOI requests or other sources for any of these data?0 -
The BMPA will know.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
