    Please dont take my stuff as a template - its generaly full of typos


    As for what they said, do post it it would be interesting to see.


    As for further action, you may still have a case ofr a GDPR breach.
    One of the key principles/parts of GDPR is that data MUST be acurate. Article 5 (D) https://gdpr-info.eu/art-5-gdpr/


    Im beginign to think that it would be beneficial when faced with a Double daip to go in with a simple Data recitification notice under the terms of GDPR to both the parking company and its principal ( usualy the landowner) , they will then have 30 days to put this right , if you are still gettign their !!!!!! after that then you should be able to go in guns blazing

    That is not a cancellation letter. Do you actually have something from the scammers in writing stating that the charge has been cancelled?
    It is not cancelled until UKPC or a judge says it is so.

    How did you get on with your complaints to the DVLA, ICO, and your MP?
    I married my cousin. I had to...
    I don't have a sister. :D
