DRP parking fine

Hi,

I have read a Lot of threads on here but I am confused as people are saying do not pay, DRP will not result in a CCJ. Well I had 5 in total all for parking at work ( I knew I couldn’t park here but as it was private company I was stupidly advised to ignore and parking here would be ok) WRONG. I ignored drp/Gladstone’s for about a year until I received an official court letter in which I had no choice but to pay before resulting in CCJ I then got another court letter so again I paid. Yesterday I received a call from DRP about my further 3 saying they are on way to legal action so I need to pay by Friday to stop this. I contacted drp in July to get this sorted I emailed them twice they ignored me and just rang Me out the blue 3 months later demanding the money straight away.

I am currently on maternity leave and got made redundant in August and my maternity claim still ongoing I can not pay this but do not want CCJ on my account as have a great rating

Where do I stand, how do people get away with not paying these fines !?
