Hi all, 

The driver of a vehicle parked in Goodmayes retail park in London in February twice overstaying their limit. Euro Car Parks sent a fine for £50 twice, the accuser responded to the first claim acknowledging their overstay due to medical emergency, the second they did not respond due to the outstanding first response. It is now July and the driver of said vehicle continues to get letters from a company called debt recovery plus issuing letters of outstanding claims against him. The driver is now quite worried of a trip to court for which the claimants have now increased to £146 for each overstay!!!! Absolutely absurd. The driver has read the newbies forum but is still worried and concerned about further actions, in the letter the debt recovery plus company claim that if the full amount is not paid by 10th August they have instructed their claimant to take court action. What is the best piece of advice you could give to the driver of said vehicle please?
