as an extra addition to this farce, after receiving the letter from “CST Law” last week demanding £800, I have received 3 further letters from the DCA with no mention of £800, but wanting their £160 x 3!!
What the helm are they playing at?! I need to have a word with someone to nip this in the bud.0 -
Fruitcake said:lurpdog101 said:Thanks….the English translation is “tariff” on the sign at least. They mention charge a few times but not fine.Yes, the DCA just sends the same worded letter each time, well, 2 versions, but just change the due date each time.A complaint needs to go to Ocean, and the BPA, and your MP, copied to the MP of the location if different, that the prohibited word DIRWY, meaning FINE, has been used on the Welsh language signs.1

Which debt collector is doing this? I need to report it if this is something new. Not sure it is though if they are demanding £160. I thought you meant they were demanding just the debt 'fees' in isolation!PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Here are the letters - they’re asking for the £160 x 3 again. So I now have 3 companies asking for 3 different amounts. Ocean Parking wanting £100 x 3, Debt Recovery Plus wanting £160 x 3 and CST Law wanting £800!0

1 letter from “law/‘ firm demanding £800 as will have a CCJ which they specified will have serious damage on me personally.
This amounts to unprofessional conduct imo. If you agree consider a complaint to the SRA.

Complain to your own MP and do a cc 'FYI' to the MP in whose constituency the car park is situated rather than a separate complaint as they can only handle those from their own constituents. But no harm in them knowing what's going on in their patch.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.
