    Hi All, 

    Hope you don't mind me asking a quick question here. 

    I have read newbies forum and cannot gather whether to start a new post or not, a little conflicting.

    Long story short: DRP are chasing fines from 2017 for SR security. I sent SAR to SR security and they've replied saying they hold no information on me and that DRP hold it all. Surely that can't be right and is it safe to say that they won't be taking me to court and if they do I can claim they did not want to give me my information?

    What should my response be to this?? 

    Thanks in advance and sorry if this wasn't the correct way to post.
    Respond that they must provide a SAR and cannot assign* the debt/data to a debt firm.

    Tell the parking firm you will report them to the DVLA, their trade body snd the ICO.


    * you must use the word 'assign' in your complaints.  They can't assign (sign over) these cases ut they can ask DRP to chase.  Not the same thing.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
