Letter from dcbl regarding fine

Jessycat9

I received the attached letter. 

I have no idea what the fine is for or when it occurred. I don’t know whether to call them to enquire. I really cannot afford £160 currently but do not want to engage with them and cause further issues. I also do not want this to get to a CCJ level. Is this a warning of a CCJ?

Thank you!

Debt collectors letter - the NEWBIE sticky is the place to start to answer all your queries.  Have you moved recently and not updated your V5C with DVLA.  This might be why you have received no previous correspondence and DCBL have used a tracing service to find you.
There will be no CCJ unless and until you go to court, lose and fail to pay in the timescale set by a judge.

TAKE THAT DOWN
You left your full name etc showing
Clearly a debt collector letter. Newbies thread explains

I’m trying to remove it now. I’ve had to report it as there’s no option of deleting it. I got the letter and panicked and posted. Thank you

Thank you. I will have a look on there now. I haven’t moved or anything. Unless it’s a really old parking ticket and they’re just chasing up old ones now to make a bit of money. Ah ok. Thank you. I just really panic about CCJs. I will go onto the newbie thread now. I’m just not sure whether to call or not so I will search for answers. Thank you

Hi there. Thank you. I will look at that thread now. I haven’t been able to find the newbie thread. Not sure if it is because I am on my phone. I’m scared about posting on any of these threads now as there seem to be a lot of keyboard warriors on here. Am I allowed to post on those threads? It’s something that is completely new to me and I have no idea about. Thank you!

It is difficult to use the forum on a phone.  If you can get to the first page of the forum, can you see five announcements in red/pink/puce boxes?  One of those is the NEWBIE sticky.  Check the number of posts that posters have, you will see that those with several thousand are there to help you and sometimes offer direct advice, which does not mean they are keyboard warriors.  You can post on any threads but it is etiquette to post on either your own thread or one of the group discussion threads such as the one that @beamerguy pointed you at if you are asking questions or any thread if you are offering advice.

The NEWBIES thread is on the main page close to the top.

We would prefer that you use the dedicated thread as it combines everything about DCBL.
The Newbies thread is a closed thread only updated by coupon-mad.
Feel free to post on the DCBL thread

There are some on here who are strict but the regulars are not keyboard warriors,  you need to be reading all the DCBL rubbish, they are the masters of being warriors of the keyboard

I can’t see those. Think I’m going to have to go onto my laptop when I finish work as it doesn’t appear to want to work properly on my phone. I will post on the thread that is specifically for DCBL now and have a further look this evening. Thank you!

Thank you very much. I think I’ll have a look on my laptop tonight when I have finished work as I can’t see the newbies thread at all on my phone. I will post onto the DCBL thread now and have a good read. Thank you!
