A month left for 6 years to expire - help and advice sought pls
Hi Team,
A bit rusty on these as haven't had any dealing since 5 years plus..
Overstay apparently on a free retail car park by 15/20 mins or so just under 6 years ago in England..
Good old "DiabolicCheatingBasketsLimited" Ltd at it after 5 years of no comms:
1. Notice of debt recovery letter - Unpaid parking charge £XXX
(with usual court, ccj tactical jargon few weeks ago) and
2. Final Reminder- Unpaid parking charge £XXX
(with the usual jargon again recently..)
> The above 2 received after receiving first year of standard letters then no letters for next 5 years
> Blue standard template appeal done initially to Client: "Gangsters"24 as RK within time online, received few more letters from recovery gangsters, no comms received or made throughout the last half a decade plus that has gone by...
Now at final hurdle? Under 1 month remaining for the 6 year milestone... Cling on? Any final tips for this sole here?
Many thanks
FYI: appeal sent initially upon receiving NTK:
Dear...
I dispute your 'parking charge', as the keeper of the vehicle. I deny any liability or contractual agreement and I will be making a formal complaint about your predatory conduct to your client landowner and to my MP.
There will be no admissions as to who was driving and no assumptions can be drawn. Since your PCN is a vague template, I require ALL photos taken and an explanation of the allegation and your evidence, i.e.:
- Etc
- etc

Some dates are needed for both the recent letters you mention.
What is 'the usual jargon'?
Are those two recent letters debt collectors letters or something more sinister?
The fourth post of the NEWBIES thread explains exactly how to identify and deal with debt collector's letters, but to summarise that post - ignore them.
If however you have received a Letter of Claim from DCB Legal Ltd, then refer to the first few paragraphs of the second post of the NEWBIES thread which explain exactly how to react upon receipt of a Letter of Claim.

> 1st letter 3 weeks ago, jargon on letter: Supreme Court Decision about parking charges..blah blah...
closing line:
Failing to make a payment:
You now have 14 days from this letter either to pay or call us to discus repayment... Case is not subject to High Court or baillif action, however if you fail to contact us, will recommend to our client commencement of legal action against you.
> 2nd letter this week: Supreme Court Decision about parking charges....blah blah...
Closing line:
Preventing further action:
You should either pay by scanning QR or call us to discuss repayment...
Many thanks

Well they won't be doing much this side of the new year, you could send them any old letter to stall them a bit and hopefully this will take you over the six year deadline before they get their claim in.

The PPC won't respond until the debt dingwobs hand it back, and you don't want to stir them in to action, they might realise and get in motion.

If it's not even reached DCB Legal yet, the clock will run out of time for them regardless.
Don't bother contacting DCBL. They'll just reply with a templated "pay up" and you won't be able to waste any time with them.
Come back when you get the DCB Legal Letter of Claim.2 -
G24 are really sraping the barrel and who better to pick up the dregs ? DCBL of course
Quoting the Supreme court is stupid, in that case, the court NEVER saaid that FAKE ADD-ONS could be added. Of course DCBL practice the famous OSNER SCAM
As said above .... DO NOT CONTACT THEM. A leetr of claim gives you 30 days if you receieve one. Judges do not like timewasters3 -
There is no need for all the cloak and bladed weapon verbiage.
DCB Limited and G24 was all you needed to say.
If you get anything from the PPC themselves or a solicitor such as DCB Legal Limited or Gladstones, then come back to this thread.I married my cousin. I had to...I don't have a sister.

This will now time out! Do nothing.
Happy New Year!PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
