    Have you read this thread, because almost every other poster on here has received what you have and as far as I can recall nothing has progressed any further. You need to respond to the LBC by following the guidance in the NEWBIES FAQ sticky, second post, get a SAR off to UKCPS, then wait to see what the next move from CST or UKCPS is.

    If there is no email to contact and only a physical address to send letters to, is that okay? Would I be best off sending a letter in that case? Or is that revealing too much about myself

    CST are scamming you
    Read back through this thread and you will see that they are out of their depth

    There is no such thing as a £160 parking ticket.  CST ADDED A FAKE £60

    You reply to their 30 day letter
    1: Denying any debt
    2: Asking for their legal authority to add £60.    
    Never ever seen them reply because they have no answer

    Check out what happens to dodgy legals who add fakes.  At the same time, watch the Supreme court video where it was ruled ... "The charge meets the costs of enforcing the parking rules
    In your case it's £100.

    CST cannot argue with that

    Thanks for your help. Is it best I proceed with replying to CST denying the claim before requesting the SAR from UKCSP?

    Is there a letter to CST template similar to the SAR layout available anywhere?

    I have looked through and found this quoted below by beamerguy in the other thread. is this what you are referring to?
    "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"

    Thanks

    No. You just need to deny any alleged debt, tell them that you will robustly defend this in court, and as you will be seeking debt advice (although you deny there is any debt owing), you require them to place the case on hold for a minimum of 30 days as per the Pre-Action Protocol for Debt Claims. That's it.

    The second post on the newbies thread FAQ says to request a SAR from the company. Do you mean reply to the CST Law company and deny the alleged offence or the actual UKCPS car park alleges?
