    They don't but you know what I mean.
    Just scare tactics from them.

    Yes, but bailffs are very, very specific and actually have powers
    Debt collectors are wastes of oxygen and should all be shut down.

    I've started draughting a defence together.
    Is it worth looking at it now or wait a bit longer?

    Just received a letter from Debt Recovery Plus stating 'Notice of intended court action - unpaid parking charge £160'
    I take it this to be ignored aswell?

    Thanks

    What does it say in the NEWBIE sticky about debt collectors and their letters?

    Yes I know.
    I've just been through it again and noted down the stages to be done in order.

    Hi all,
    I haven't been on here for a while due to work and family commitments.
    I've just received the 'final reminder' through the post saying I owe £160 and offering me a payment plan to pay it off.
    Also saying if I don't pay or make contact within 7 days legal recovery will begin.

    Please read again the three posts immediately before your most recent post.

    The answer to the question you almost asked is there.

    A true LBC would give 30 days and include financial forms
