A bit of advise regarding non-ticket charge

Peter_Wood_2

I have received a letter from DRP a debt recovery business threatening to take me to court if I fail to pay £160 for a parking charge. The parking company Anchor Security Services (trading as Care Parking) are not with any parking trade body.
I have never received a ticket for the parking charge and knew nothing about it until today’s letter from DRP.
I have read the information offered but this seems to be an issue with an unclear resolution path in that: No ticket for the parking was sent, no follow-up received and the charge is excessive, no evidence offered of the parking taking place, (however if it did it would have ben in the evening as the location is not one we have used).
The whole saga seems dubious.
Any help welcome.
Regards, Pete

Yes they are. Have been for many years. BPA AOS, I think, as they offer POPLA.

Send an email complaint to Steve Clark at the BPA, telling him Care went straight to debt collector stage, no PCN (attach a copy of the DRP letter):

steve.c@britishparking.co.uk

No saying who was driving in the complaint.

A very tame way to explain ..... "dubious"

YOU ARE BEING SCAMMED ..... that's the word.

It's only care bear parking so suggest you now wait to see what they intend to do.

As far as DRP are concerned, total morons who live in the sewers
and they cannot take you to court. DRP are just rubbish and you take no notice of them .... second stage scammers

Debt Collectors (DRP & ZZPS & Zenith)
What they don't want you to know
