    Just reopening for info and to keep an eye on my proceedings. Just had a letter from CST Law "Unpaid Debt Reminder" to pay DRP to avoid court blah blah. Obviously I will ignore, it seems the country being in lock down means that the parking scammers have no fresh meat in the car parks so they are digging up old ones

    Have you read this?  Does it apply?

    Nine times out of ten these tickets are scams, so consider complaining to your MP, it can cause the scammer extra costs and work, and has been known to get the charge cancelled.

    Parliament is well aware of the MO of these private parking companies, many of whom are former clampers, and on 15th March 2019 a Bill was enacted to curb the excesses of these shysters. Codes of Practice are being drawn up, an independent appeals service will be set up, and access to the DVLA's date base more rigorously policed, persistent offenders denied access to the DVLA database and unable to operate.

    Hopefully, when life gets back to normal, it will become impossible for those scammers who are left to continue their vile trade, but until this is done you should still complain to your MP, citing the new legislation.

    Just as the clampers were finally closed down, so hopefully will many of these Private Parking Companies.
