Comments
-
I just signed up to Vego for a quote for food delivery insurance. Every detail correct except I changed my surname.
If i now get a DRS letter in the alternative surname, it'll be confirmed 😃12 -
I have been getting a few messages on what to do. This is getting ridiculous, people are getting scared of this. Good thing this was down. I was in touch with a hacker on the dark web. He took the website down as a trial yesterday but asked for £600 for his details. I could not pay. Glad the website is down.
Got a Reply from Steve from the BPA. EVERYONE DO NOT PAY.Thanks for your note it's definitely a scam.

What respectable company puts a return address of PO BOX 387 Barnstable EX32 2HA on their mail without their company name while they operate out of such large offices?"Company's official reply 12 March 2019, 12:59 pmHi Tudor, we are really sorry you are having a problem with receiving unwanted mail.
We are a mailing house — we send mail on behalf of other companies, the names and addresses they supply to us — we also do everything we can to help our customer companies NOT to send mail to people (like yourself) that don't want to receive it.
You've done the right thing sending the 2 letters back to us; unfortunately it can sometimes take a while for returns to reach us, and in the meantime you may well still receive further items in the post from the advertiser who's database you are on.
If you could please get in contact with our MD, Sam Heaton, on {sam (at) stannp dot com} we will make sure we forward your details to the advertiser who is sending to you, and they will remove you from the database so you don't receive any more unwanted mail.PRIVATE 'PCN'?

3 months ago is not enough time to result in what these jokers are doing
Firstly, there is an appeal to the parking company, that normally fails, then there is a second appeal service, then if that fails, known idiot debt collectors will send you toliet paper and when they fail, one of the daft legals will send a letter of claim giving 30 days and then maybe issue a court claim and then it's allocated to your local court for a hearing maybe 2-3 months away.
As you have a ticket and as long it's from a private parking company, not council, we can help but not on this thread, you must start your own thread
You are being scammed. You must now do a checklist on whom you gave your details to over the last few months which means anything online. Sooner or later we will have a match1 -

ALL of them are a scam, 100% every single one. A useful coincidence for you because it has brought you here where you can get help about the real parking tickets in due course.

Please then tell us here that you have done so.4 -
