Debt letter re: Smart Parking

They also said that Smart P would have proof of franking the original charge notice and they would be recommending their client (Smart P.) take it to court.BS! There will be no records of franking individual envelopes, and DRP won't be recommending anything to SP. SP's court claims are rarer than rocking horse sh*t, and they won't be taking a single PCN to a court hearing. They may huff and puff through a low-rent roboclaim legal, but you just need to look at the number of SP cases that have gone the whole way to see just how unlikely court is.Do you enjoy seeking needles in haystacks? 🙂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. .

... issued by Smart P demanding £170.
£70 of which is almost certainly unlawful. Have you complained to your MP?You never know how far you can go until you go too far.0 -
Quick question lovely people.
Savills have now asked for evidence of the parking charge that was paid but my friend says there were two fines.
Should she evidence one or both?
I'm assuming they want to see that she's paid one which would show the one the DRA are chasing is likely to match her story that she didn't receive a letter for it.

There were no fines. Don't use that word in this process or to Savills; this is not a fine.
Can you show us exactly what Savills have said?PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Whoops, slip of the keyboard and I thought I'd done well saying parking charge prior to it.
I'll see if I can get the message and post (redacting names and Identifying details out of course) .1
