    I've set up a direct debit which I will continue paying.
    Not on our watch you won't!

    Cancel that payment plan IMMEDIATELY. Inform your bank not to make DD payments if that's how this daft 'plan' has been set up.

    I have paid a lot out in fines already.
    How much? Are they real (Council) fines or fake ones like the Smart Parking invoice?

    YOU NEVER HAD ANY FINES FROM SMART PARKING.

    You have been taken in by a notorious aggressive scam. Stop the payments and stop phoning; block their numbers and IGNORE ZZPS.  We don't understand why you didn't Google them because nobody here ever pays ZZPS.  It is sad that they intimidate good people into paying 'debts' that are not owed.

    Just checking: Not in Scotland are you?

    'Smart Parking Limited'. 
    OMG - the easiest one to beat with one template email. Here's what you should have done:

    Smart Parking are a joke. They don't even sue anyone! Nothing would ever have happened.  It still won't.

    Get yourself clued up and firmly into ignore mode like all other posters currently laughing at ZZPS or similar £170 threatograms. Read the 4th post of the NEWBIES thread.

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