Notice of Debt Recovery (Bristol Airport) stopping in a zone where stopping is prohibited

septembersun

I recieved this 'Letter of Debt Recovery' from DCBL a couple of weeks ago. It says it related to an incident of 'stopping in a zone where stopping is prohibited' which occured on 12/03/2025. This was the first correspondence of any kind that I have recieved regarding the incident. We moved house in September and only recently updated the address on the V5 so other letters may have been sent to my previous address.

I read through one of your expired threads and was not sure whether to respond in that thread or post a new one

I have not replied or made any contact (in fact the letter gives me no opportunity to do so as far as I can see).

I would welcome some advice as to how to proceed. Thank you

You did the correct thing in starting a new thread 

Post 4 in the newbies sticky thread in announcements near the top of the forum explains about ignoring powerless debt collectors letters,  including from DCBL

BUT

Email the DPO at VCS with a Data Rectification Notice,  a DRN, giving them the new address for the service of papers and that they must erase the old address,  add redacted copies of a couple of recent utility bills and a copy of the new correct V5c as proof of the change of address 

So ignore DCBL , and no paying either 

Then study the many other VCS stopping cases at Bristol Airport on this forum,  to gain knowledge and more advice,  whilst you have plenty of time to get up to speed about the topic

That letter is already shown in the 4th post of the Newbies thread, in the pictures. That post already tells everyone what to do.
