DCBL advice please

Do DCBL have any legal standing? I have NO income, and rely on my husbands two basic wages, I have this letter this morning, and am burying my head in the sand, part of my wants to call them and explain the situation, but the other part doesn't want to get caught up paying this when I cant!
My brother was rushed to a&e, I went to the first parking space and thought nothing more of it, which was stupid I know,  but the hospital car park was packed, and as I never go there, and live 90mins away,  I didn't realize there was a second car park a mile up the road thats recently been put in, so went into the retail park instead, and now this!

    Post 4 in the newbies sticky thread in announcements, ignore powerless debt collectors, no legal standing 

    But that client you redacted DOES have legal standing 

    Come back to this thread with more details when you receive a Letter of Claim. ( Or court claim. )
  • Just a so called debt letter from DCBL with KIM telling you a lie

    THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A £170 PARKING TICKET

    DCBL HAS ADDED £70 WHICH IS A FAKE

    Wonder who has been teaching KIM to lie

    If you do get a court claim, DCBL will call the fake £70 ... DAMAGES .... which is even more rubbish

    Don't take any notice of the "Can't pay, we' will take it away" ......   DCBL are still in denial about the rubbish TV programme to which they were the star ?????   JUNK TV

    Forget the word BAILIFF, what fools, it has not been to court

    IGNORE THAT LETTER. Read Post 4 in the newbies sticky thread. You know, the one in capitals at the top of the forum, shouting at newbies to READ THESE FAQS FIRST (don't ask for a link. See my signature below...).

    Please tell us which parking firm?

    Scotland, England or Wales?
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
