Appeal rejected

Coupon-mad

Dear Guildways,

Sad to see yet more companies jumping on the bandwagon of the lucrative parking industry to grab a share of the extortionate pie.

Stop sending me template drivel, pretending it actually comes from a solicitor when it's just tedious newcomer 'i-debt Collection' using a different name.

I won't be contacting anyone.  It is crystal clear that Guildways are not 'instructed by Initial Parking' to do anything at all, so get lost.

regards,

I would send that letter by Coupon-mad above.

Treat idiots as idiots

Pretending to be someone in authority is just what WONGA did and they went bust ?

The letter from Guildways is highly flawed

THE BEAVIS CASE:
Let's get this right ..... the Supreme court ruled that the ticket priced at £85 was ro cover the operation of the scheme .  No fake add-ons like £70.  (£85 is not a typo, it was the ATA who increased it to £100 )

THE BPA
Guildways seem to think that the BPA is some sort of an authority ?
In reality, the BPA are a nasty cheap members club who invented the fake £70 add-on designed to scam people out of more money

In your case, the ticket price from the PPC is £100 and it is Guildways who have added the fake £70 to which they have no legal authority 

Just another debt collector trying to jump on the money wagon and oven ready to be zapped by a court. Of course a debt collector as such is powerless to take you to court. The solicitor involved could do but ... risk a judge spanking them for rubbish

The extra £70 has come from the previous debt collection letters as they added that on to cover their costs!

So?  Are you suggesting that it is a legitimate add-on?

The game is "pass the parcel"  Their costs have nothing to do with you and IS A LIE AND FAKE

The so called costs are down to the PPC and ....... what costs ..... these bods offer a no win no fee service

It's all cloud dreaming stuff and if they look up, they might see some pigs flying around

Just saying that the £70 was added on by the previous debt company. Il try and find the letter from them. It’s all ridiculous anyway over a £1.80 parking fee not being paid! 

And the POPLA appeal said £80 or £85 is a sufficient fee but Initial we’re still charging £100. They have never changed the cost even after the POPLA appeal but instead added on additional fees. I’m just worried this might all affect me getting a mortgage.

Can’t find the first letter from these guys but this is the last one I had in July

patient_dream

Just remember that clowns come from a circus and dress themselves up to look ridiculous

Seems the circus is in a town near you

NO IT WILL NOT.
This needs to firstly go to court. If you lost which is doubtful, you will be given a couple of weeks to pay and if you fail to pay, you will get a CCJ and that will go on your credit rating.

Despite all their bluster and rubbish, a debt collector cannot do anything.  Their job is simply to scare you into paying and it really is JUNK MAIL

Affywaffy

ok thanks @patient_dream.
so the advice is to just ignore Guildways letter then as well?

Coupon-mad

As already advised.  My reply showed you what it really is.  

Nothing will affect your mortgage unless you ignore a small claim, don't defend, or move house without telling the PPC and later find a claim went undefended at the old address.

There are/were no costs incurred for sending DRA letters.
