  • Thank you very much for all your replies. I appreciate that you have took the time to respond to me personally, which I get must be frustrating and time consuming given all the posts you get daily. It’s appreciated!

    Where did you see the advice to ignore?


    Its good to see you have kept the letters demanding money, you should keep any demands like that for at least 6 years.


    You said its Britania, and failing to make valid payment, but in whos car park was this? the reason far asking that, is a landowner cancellation is often a good way to start in getting this seen off, or at least a landowner letter confirming they do not want this being pursued in court

    Evening all, I’ve had multiple calls from BW Legal which I ignore and block and a recent email ? no idea how they got my email address! Today I received a “reply form”, this isn’t a letter of claim is it? Am I still to ignore their letters?

    Difficult to say.

    Most unusual for a Reply Form to be sent out by itself - in fact I would say I have never heard of that happening before.

    A LBC includes a reply form but it also must include proof of their claim, proof of the amount claimed and give you 30 days to respond.
    It's a thick pack with other forms you can ignore

    You do understand that with the phone calls you can request they only contact you by post. If they ignore you, they are in breach of The Administration of Justice Act which means they then act illegally

    The letter says it is a LOC, so far I haven’t responded to any letters.

    What would be required for proof of claim? There is just a brief description (failed to make valid payment) (I did pay, I overrun) and estimated claim costs.
  • You will receive a court claim no matter what you do at this stage.

    Hello Parkingfines, welcome to the forum.

    I polished my crystal ball this morning but couldn't come up with that prediction. ;)
  • Just a waste of time conversing with BW legal on receipt of any letter from since it's all highly automated and achieves nothing.

    And thank you:)
