Euro Parking - Change of driver to £140 final reminder!

Options
Evening all, 

Received 3 x PCN from Euro Parking Feb 2024.  Son was using car so went online and filled in relevant section to advise of correct driver within 28 days.  Plan was to get name changed and then take the PCN direct to the owners where son had a membership, if that failed, then would pay the £60 for each PCN.  

A few days ago (almost 5 months later), received all 3 PCN with updated name, however they've been issued as final reminders £140!  

100% we've not received a previous PCN with updated name.  

There's no way of contacting them anywhere on the PCN.

Oddly, PCN still states failure to pay within 28 days will result in the full charge of £100.

Any help appreciated or point to a thread where similar issue has been discussed (couldn't find anything)
Titch :)

    Which 'Euro' do you mean?
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    They are the ones that issue a letter headed:

    Fore Court Action

    seemingly too stupid to change their template letter to make sense!

    Sounds great, let them take it to court?  They haven't issued the first PCN so this final reminder is void?  Also should we write to them as a complaint about issuing final reminder as the first notice, thanks.

  • Evening all,

    Received a letter before claim from Gladstones.  Do we reply to this or wait for the court claim?

    In your son's name (driver) for all 3 PCNs?

    What were the circumstances?
