    No reference to 30 days. Only 7 days to pay the payment

    And just to reiterate ... unless their claim is for several PCNs amounting to more than £300 then there's not a chance in hell of them starting a Simple Procedure claim in Scotland. And if they foolishly tried to file an MCOL claim then you'd simply contest jurisdiction. :)

    One PCN with a charge of £170 at some vague location in Edinburgh and we could never fine. Suspect it is Student accommodation. Car registister in England

    The original PCN cannot have been for £170.

    I can check back. About 15 months now. That is the quoted cost now.

    Ignore it, unless they start a claim.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    It's P4Parking, but the advice still holds true.

    So the next letter has arrived. Notice to Issue Summons. 72 hours to pay from the date of the letter (7th May) which has already passed. If I don't pay, they will advise client to investigate immediate legal proceedings.

    Ignore this one too I assume?
