Hi posted this on my other thread but somebody suggested I post with a new thread so here goes

first letter I’ve ever received im
assuming they were writing to old address I moved out of in 2022
sold vehicle in March 2022
states on letter PCN is for April 2022
do I explain I sold the car ? Or do I follow a different process
I have until 1st June to sort before they put in a county court claim

Did you complete the transfer online? Do you have proof of the date of transfer?
Failing that, a bill of sale/receipt for payment? Proof of a vehicle tax refund or cancellation of insurance?
Not that this matters at this point, use the standard LBC response from the Newbies thread, but add a line that tells them you sold the vehicle on <date>, prior to the issue of the charge.
If you can, provide the new owner's name and address.Always remember to abide by Space Corps Directive 39436175880932/B:

But there's only one page of the NEWBIES thread and it's where my signature tells you.Colonizemars said:I can’t find the LBC template in the newbies thread do you know what page it is on?PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

This is good, send that evidence with your reply. As neither keeper nor driver you have no liability. DCB Legal will try to claim that because your name was retrieved from the DVLA you are liable but that's obviously not true.Colonizemars said:Also I gave the new keeper slip upon sale
