CST letters' forum group thread

Hi,   let's get serious shall we, BOLD = what you should write .....

I will be complaining to the SRA and FCA as you are purporting to be sending a letter before claim, acting on behalf of an entity that I have no contract with. I require a copy of any contract you think I have with Debt Recovery Plus

You have claimed an additional £45 for ‘debt recovery’,  which you state is included in the charge you claim. That equates to £15 per parking ticket which is unlawful. If as you say this is included, then that also leaves an unlawful charge of £70 per parking ticket. You have already stated that the £45 is for recovery so please explain your legal authority to increase each ticket price by £70

Please take note that your claim goes against the ruling of the Supreme court, POFA2012 and the double recovery rules of the County Court.  Therefore this can only be deemed as Abuse of Process and as such your claim is unreliable and if you proceed further, I will ask the court to strike out your clam as Abuse of Process
I will show your Letter before Claim in court together with this letter..  You are of course at liberty to respond to me giving your legal authority to add such amounts.

My costs schedule will be presented to the court

Yours faithfully

LOL, their letter says £170 plus £170 (both sums that Smart Parking can't claim) = £370!

They are useless.

Read a little more carefully - they add £15 per ticket, meaning its £185 x 2.

Yes, i have made that change to the above.   

I guess CST are doing this so they can experience first hand, a court spanking

Very good sir!
I've tidied slightly and I am ready to submit to CST.

Re PCN Refs no: XX, XX, XX

Dear Sir or Madam,

                                    I write in relation to the above PCN reference numbers and in response to your recent ‘Letter Before Claim’.

I have only just received this as you have sent correspondence to my old address.
Therefore, please send any further correspondence to me at [Address Here].

Please note I am seeking debt advice but I deny any debt and the case must be put ‘on hold’ for not less than 30 days under the PAP for debt claims 2017. Please respond to confirm this.

I have submitted a Subject Access Request (SAR) to your client as I have insufficient information to date.

I will be complaining to the SRA and FCA as you are purporting to be sending a letter before claim, acting on behalf of an entity that I have no contract with. I require a copy of any contract you think I have with Debt Recovery Plus.

You have claimed an additional £45 for ‘debt recovery’,  which you state is included in the charge you claim. That equates to £15 per parking ticket which is unlawful. If as you say this is included, then that also leaves an unlawful charge of £70 per parking ticket. You have already stated that the £45 is for recovery so please explain your legal authority to increase each ticket price by £70?

Please take note that your claim goes against the ruling of the Supreme court, POFA2012 and the double recovery rules of the County Court.  Therefore this can only be deemed as Abuse of Process and as such your claim is unreliable.

Should you proceed further, I will ask the court to strike out your clam as Abuse of Process. I will show your ‘Letter before Claim’ in court together along with this response. You are of course at liberty to respond to me giving your legal authority to add such amounts.

My costs schedule will be presented to the court.

Please let me know when this ‘claim’ has been discontinued, given its unlawful precedence.

All good?
Another interesting development is that my relative has informed me of a 4th! ticket... yet this strangely isn't on the claim form although there has been a few debt crawler letters for it months ago..

nosferatu1001

It isnt strange. Their admin is shocking.

Yep and you will all be fine if you all follow the 2nd post of the NEWBIES thread*

CST at it again ......  somebody should be talking to them about their lack of knowledge and porky pies

1: DRP CANNOT INSTRUCT THEM, it's not their debt.   WRONG ENTITY CST ??
<snipped as not replying to it>

As an aside: well, I could understand CST mistaking an "E" for a "D" since they're so close to each other on a QWERTY keyboard, but how you mistake a "R" for a "C" is a little harder as they're further apart, but I don't know how you could do it on an A-Z PDT or Psion-like keyboard.

CST Law have sent through this letter https://imgur.com/a/LQJaeWD.

This isnt an LBC, so my understanding is I don't submit an SAR at this point?

Letter received 29th July, dated 22nd - deadline of 5th August.

This relates to 2 PCNs, which failed at POPLA stage. So CST Law adding on an extra £60 per PCN by the looks of it.
