    My friend's first appeal was rejected but they threw in the towel at IAS stage when faced with a photo of the machine.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Also happy to go to Sennen and get a parking ticket!  

    Is this the company with the registered office in London?  I think it was moved from Cornwall because I asked to visit!  I can visit in London in September to check it complies with the DVLA requirements (it won’t).  

    I think the London address is just a mailbox rental centre. A few of the parking and debt companies have prestigious W1, SW1 and WC postcodes- but these are just mailboxes and no companies are physically based there. What is the London one for these guys?

    Quick Google search shows that they're are 272 companies registered there!

    I found this article about multiple bogus companies registered to this address being forced into liquidisation by the High Court.

    You too can register your business to this address for £49.99 a year.

    Taking that statistic in isolation, there is nothing wrong with that.

    Back in the 1950's every limited company had to have a brass 'registered office' plate.
    My father was an accountant. As a child I can remember being shown a four drawer filing cabinet full to the brim with brass 'registered office' plates.

    That of course adds nothing useful to the discussion here.  ;)
