    Yep that's fine except there's nothing to identify the PCN, the VRM nor who you are.  You do need all identifiers.

    You can't just email with nothing by way of any clue what this is about.

    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Just included them two PCN and VRN on my email. That should be ok I guess?

    No because the letter is gearing up to add more money (+£70) to pretend that failed 'debt recovery' template letters cost that.  It is pure extortion.

    You are overthinking this whole issue

    I have received automatic reply on this email, however not on first email where I have appealed. 

    I really hope not to pay that. It's just a lot of money now.

    After seven pages of advice and after reading the NEWBIES thread, what makes you think you will ever pay?

    Where did you read that anywhere here, please?

    People don't pay these scam things.
