Not parked within the bay.

Still staying silent.. 

Another letter..

I also got an SMS, not sure how they got my number.

How many times does it need to be said?

The fourth post of the NEWBIES thread explains exactly how to deal with debt collector's letters, but to summarise that post - ignore them.

That's three times I've written that on this one thread.
Please don't show us any more debt collector's letters.

I know and like I typed, I'm ignoring. Calm down man.

I'm just putting the flow in so, if it happens to someone else, they can see the process and quantity of letters.

Court claim has come

Do the AOS online on MCOL by logging in via the government gateway,  details are in the newbies sticky thread in announcements near the top of the forum 

Then,  later this week,  study the template defence by coupon mad in announcements,  once it's been updated this week,  due her removing some parts etc

Oh look: UKPC can now increase a PCN twice in a calendar month (with NO WORK BEING DONE IN THAT MONTH) because the Joint Code removed the BPA reminder letters. This is the result:

The UKPC £170 demand is bad enough but look at the ZZPS threatograms:

How unprofessional that latest letter is. Weird font, white space gaps and blue bits everywhere.

Totally out of context to suggest that all parking charges are 'enforceable' but 

the icing on the cake is that notorious debt crawlers (run by an ex-Roxburghe director, a company banned from a debt recovery licence by the Office of Fair Trading years ago) can't even spell Beavis

This letter chain will be shown to the MHCLG.

This rubbish isn't something worthwhile or to be funded by motorists paying more than the PCN for 'debt resolution' which is nothing of the sort. What debt 'resolution' is it then?!

What has the consumer gained by the PCN being inflated?

Or is it an 'admin fee' ... see top right?

Who knows, who cares, the added 'extortion' will be banned I'm sure.

It would be madness not to.

That letter threatens bailiffs, twice.

Not even a semblance of debt resolution. It reads as: 'pay up or we'll send the CERTIFIED ENFORCEMENT AGENTS (bailiffs new name) round'!

That's how most people would read it.

Shocking.  Just because she signs off as 'Debt Resolution' doesn't make it true.

If the MHCLG can't see that the DRF must be banned and firms like this removed from KADOE, then the Ministers responsible need to think again.

Thank you. Will have a read and do the AOS

I have done the AOS, thanks both.. Pretty straightforward so far.

Is this a good enough response for Paragraph 3 in my defence?

3. Referring to the POC: paragraph 1 is denied. The Defendant is

not indebted to the Claimant. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant

does not accept that a contravention occurred on 24/12/2024, as

alleged. Whilst the Defendant was the registered keeper and

driver, paragraphs 3 and 4 are denied. The Defendant is not liable

and has seen no evidence of a breach of prominent terms. The

quantum is hugely exaggerated (no PCN can be £170 on private land)

and there were no damages incurred whatsoever.

 

3.1. The Defendant briefly parked in the position alleged only to

avoid a hazardous area containing broken glass on the ground,

prioritising the safety of their children. This action was taken

reasonably and in good faith to prevent potential injury or

damage, and does not constitute a wilful or negligent breach of

any parking terms.

@pda Thanks for starting this thread and meticulously documenting everything that's happened so far on this along with images of the letters coming through in the post.

I'm on letter 2 of a UKPC "fine" for the exact same reason in a supermarket parking lot and expect it to follow the same path as yours. Studiously ignoring everything until it gets to a claim.. Bookmarked your thread and wish you luck!
