Fine for entering wrong vehicle reg

Quick update - letter received from QDR with the heading 'FORMAL LETTER OF CLAIM' and some forms including statement of account, information sheet and reply form. They say a financial statement is also included but I could not find it in the envelope.

30 days have been given to respond.

I take it this is the same as a 'LETTER BEFORE CLAIM'? Only asking as I know these firms have a way with making things look official....i..e Parking Charge Notice and Penalty Charge Notice

Yes it is.

To deal with it follow the guidance towards the beginning of post #2 of the NEWBIES thread.

I too put in the wrong vehicle registration. I relied on my Contacts list in my IPhone, paid the £6 and left the NCP Stanmore LU Station. I appealed to this PCN immediately saying that I had proof of payment but heard nothing for two months until I received the first of 4 payment requests from ZZPS. Each time I replied to them sending the relevant proof of payment, proof of previous ownership of the original vehicle, proof of ownership of the present vehicle to no avail. Today I have received a letter from QDR Solicitors requesting payment, now £182. Your help and advise would be most welcome.

NEWBIES - HOW TO UPLOAD LINKS TO PHOTOS/SCANS TO MSE

To upload a photo/scan link, you first need to host it on a free photo hosting site (like Dropbox, Imurg or Tinypic), copy the URL, paste it here, but change the http to hxxp and we'll do the conversion. Newbies can't directly upload links to photos/scans until they've a few posts under their belt.

Have you read this

Have they added an unlawful £60? If so complain here

It has increased from £100 PC, plus £70 admin fee to £182, so only £12 more

nosferatu1001

The £70 admin fee is the damned infaltion, the inflation has been further inflated to £82...

It's also irrelevant what the figure is , if a judge says it's not allowed , it's not allowed

Thank you to experienced members here who have helped me and others so far.

Ok, so I have read the guidance on post #2 of the Newbies thread following receipt of LoC from QDR and I have a few questions.

1) The guidance states to send a SAR to the PPC. This was already done in April which explicitly asked for a redacted copy of any records from the PDT machines. Their response was to show records only matching the exact VRN which of course would be blank. OPS did the same when responding to POPLA appeal. Will another SAR be worthwhile doing?

2) Are there any templates/example for the formal letter to send to QDR? Also, should this be done by email or post?

3) Is there any benefit of writing to MP at this point? Especially with this being in the news recently for small mistakes when entering registration: https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/huge-change-parking-rules-mean-3723512
