    Redx... thanks for the kind words :-)

    If either of us can get down and speak to whoever the manager of the day is tomorrow, i'm sure we'll make arrangements to do so. Unlikely to be myself, for reason previously stated, but who knows what tomorrow brings!

    Will keep you posted as and when one / both of us have been.

    Thanks again!

    Every G24 thread tells you that a retailer complaint is the only way to (easily) cancel a G24 fake PCN so who cares about a rejection of appeal - inevitable and NOT the way to get it cancelled!
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Ok guys. I've been and seen the manager at Sports Direct. Basically i got a simple 'there's nothing i can do about it' response.

    I've e-mailed the robbing bar-stewards again and been told (once more) that the appeal is declined.

    My friend is really panicking about all of this, and i;m not much use from here, because i'm laid up in bed right now :-(

    Any advice i can pass on please?

    Thanks again.

    There's no other advice than what's been said already / covered in the NEWBIES FAQ. An IPC appeal is utterly pointless, so just wait for any court papers or a real LBA - debt collector dross can be completely ignored.

    DoaM...

    So if i'm understanding you correctly... just sit here and do nothing and completely ignore the sods... forever?

    Sorry to keep asking, but as you may have guessed by now, i'm kind of an idiot with all these ways and means :-(

    Thanks!

    Post 27 told you to NOT ignore court claim form or a LBA
    BUt to ignore debt collectors
    Debt collectors can do nothing.

    Thanks!

    Not dumb, you just need to be careful about blanket terms such as "ignore everything" :)
