    I think that if you read the question again you will see that my answer was correct   
    You never know how far you can go until you go too far.

    Polishes crystal ball and gazes into it intently OR who knows?  At the moment lots of PPCs and their solicitors are trawling for old cases in the search for money as, due to the pandemic and people not allowed/supposed to go out and park, the revenue is down.

    Or is there something I should do about it ??
    I don’t know what tho 
    You need to read between the lines here.
    DCBL are clearly sending out a bucket load of letters for these old tickets .. if they carried out all their threats, the courts would need to build even more courts just to cover fake claims and that is not going to happen.   They are looking for mugs and no doubt they will find them.

    Back in the last lockdown, solicitors started going bust, DCBL simply cannot be in the solicitor class and as the parking industry is going into freefall to bankruptcy ?  The knock on to this must be legals who support them  Turning into rogue traders will not help them

    And if DCBL continue to add extortionate amounts such as £180 as seen in this thread today ..

    DCBL will quickly understand what a real COURT SPANKING means

    A county court (small claims court) is not for rogue traders and those who wish to extort money

    IGNORE DEBT CHASING LETTERS and if you get a real LBA come back here
    This is without doubt a Humpty Dumpty moment for DCBL

    You will get a LBC and you will get a court claim.  No-one will come to your house and you can then use our template defence.

    You need to read NEWBIES PLEASE READ THESE FAQS FIRST - post #2. 

    NO LINK GIVEN.  There is also a TEMPLATE DEFENCE thread at the top of the forum and you appear to have missed that as well, which makes me concerned you think this forum can be used on a phone.  It can't.  The advice you need is at the top of the forum!

    A laptop shows you the NEWBIES thread and the TEMPLATE DEFENCE thread at the top - one click away.  See my signature below.
