    I get the impression from the letters in your opening post that LETTER1 is allegedly a copy of a letter sent earlier.

    LETTER2 is recent and saying that as you haven't replied to LETTER1 they'll give you another 14 days to respond.

    Not sure why you have since posted lots of other stuff.
    Is this the equivalent of tossing the file across the table and saying "you sort it out"?

    Sorry but I'm new to these things, I thought it would be helpful.

    Letters 1 and 2 were received today in the same envelope. Apologies if all this looks incoherent.

    if they gave you 30 days to respond and included financial forms or a link to forms, then reply with a rebuttal to their LBC


    and if you have not done so, send the PPC a SAR to their DPO with 30 days notice, getting all they have on you
  • Well, now you know if it gets that far it's £19 per hour. :)

    The first thing I want to draw your attention to is this;

    Schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Paragraph 4(5) The maximum sum which may be recovered from the keeper by virtue of the right conferred by this paragraph is the amount specified in the notice to keeper under paragraph 8(2)(c) or (d) or, as the case may be, 9(2)(d) (less any payments towards the unpaid parking charges which are received after the time so specified).

    The amount has been artificially increased and would be an abuse of process if they filed a claim at the court asking for this.

    This increase in the original "charge" is a direct contravention of POFA 2012.

    You need to read POFA 2012 and tear their Notice to Keeper apart looking for as many reasons for no keeper liability as possible - then if they take you to court you'll be able to prove abuse of process due to the artificially increased figure and prove it's a vexatious claim.
    Never admit to being the driver, POFA 2012 Schedule 4 is your best friend, always fight as registered keeper. Disprove keeper liability and you may be able to claim/counterclaim for data protection breach(s) and harassment. Don't just fight back, FIGHT BACK.

    Hi Redx
    Letter 1 that supposedly gives me 30 days to respond was says it was printed 40 days ago. Both letters were received today.

    So for the SAR I should follow the template from legalbeagals website?
