  • Hello,

    Sorry I’ve not logged in for some time, Ive been busy enjoying taking CP Plus head on with some great success thanks to everyone here that helped me in the past!

    Myself and my work friends have now successfully appealed and won around 40 POPLA appeals.

    I am happy to say that who ever has appealed and won is nolonger receiving parking fines or letters from debt collectors.

    Also what I am finding rather strange is, now when contacting CP Plus for popla codes regarding parking tickets received, if we have appealed and won at popla previously they are sending us reply emails stating, there is no parking charge with that number on their system???? �� I think they are finally getting feed up of losing at POPLA.

    Unfortunately they have now hit us hard with the SCS letter’s, letter before claim for fines that we didn’t appeal at POPLA, due to leaving it too late.

    Can you tell me if it’s appropriate for me to upload my letter before court here and my response or whether I should start a new thread?

    Many thanks

    I suggest you stay with this thread as it contains background info

    however, start a new thread for anything "new" , like any other tickets that need resolving and arent to do with this mess you find yourselves in

    for example, if one of you has an ongoing court case and need help with it , start a new thread and link this thread into the post for background info

    hope this helps ?
  • Ok thank you!

    It's nice to see CP Plus getting a pasting at POPLA. It's cost them over a grand to go to POPLA for those 40 PCN's.
    What were the reasons for POPLA upholding the appeals, the same as yours, CP Plus didn't provide a copy of the NTK in their evidence pack?

    Does the letter from SCS Law have any more pages other than the ones you have posted?
    I can't see any mention of it being a 'Letter before Claim' or similar on the 1st page.
    Are they asking you to pay and if so, who are they asking you to send payment to?
  • Hello Robin
    Thank you for your reply.

    I’ve edited my above post as I’d not uploaded all cp had sent me.
    It’s the final page before they mention it been a letter before claim.
  • Debt recovery plus I’m asked to send payment too!

    so actually DRP letters on pimped out letterheads, not actual solicitor letters
  • You have a couple of weeks to reply to the LBC.

    BTW what happened re the small court claims the other girls received in June. Are they still ongoing?

    In the meantime I would email the DVLA with a request for information about your car.
    You can request from them the dates when CP Plus accessed your details. It's important because they should have made a seperate application to the DVLA for each parking charge.

    DVLA address : SubjectAccess.Requests@dvla.gsi.gov.uk

    I would write something along the lines of this;

    Dear Sirs,

    From :

    PinkLady0805 (Full Name)

    (Insert address here)

    Re: VRM AB12 XYZ

    As the Registered Keeper of the above vehicle, I would like to request the following information.

    Could you please give me details of who and when any company, organisation or individual has requested my personal details from the DVLA with regards to the vehicle and the date when the DVLA provided the keeper details.

    Please provide me these details for the period 1st January 2017 to 1st December 2017 inclusive.
    .
    I understand there is no charge for this information and look forward to your reply.

    Kind regards,

    PinkLady0805

    The Prankster blogged about this a while ago - linked to further support Robin’s advice.

    @Robin - you’re giving absolutely super support to Pinklady and her colleagues. :T
    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. .
