Did you do this? Current address on your V5? It's the address dvla gave to PE for you, the one PE posted your pcn and reminder notices to (which you didn't receive). If V5 shows an old address you'd need to action, the dvla AND PE.Car1980 said:But double check your car's V5 form is up to date for your current correct address.FYI debt agencies can do a trace to find your present address but one mustn't assume they will share it with the parking operator.4 -
"So we are well aware of the shortcomings of the incorrect, corrupt, money grabbing system and abuse of the Money Claim system by Private Parking companies and Bulk Litigators"
So are the DVLA from which these scams mostly start as they sell motorists private data willy-nilly with no human intervention under the dubious "reasonable cause" excuse.
I have certainly drawn their attention over the years to the various scams but the DVLA always send a template BAU reply that does not deal with actual complaint.

My issue is why was i not contacted by ParkingEye it’s their word against mine! We did park there happy to pay a reasonable charge - are there any templates here that i can use?0

Its not just their word
Parking Eye will have posted an NTK PCN letter to the address listed on the DVLA database, as would other authorities, Parking companies etc
Plus they sent reminders too, by post
The fact that you didn't receive them is almost always the fault of the Registered Keeper, typically due to not updating their V5c log book after moving ( a legal requirement )
Not receiving paperwork is no defence
My point is that they will have copies, dates, the address they sent the letters to, so it's not just their word, they have evidence too, they always do, is their daily business, it's their normal, it's their Modus Operandi , M.O.
Any templates are in the announcements at the top of the forum, especially the NEWBIES sticky thread, plus the Successful Complaints thread too3 -
Our address is correct on the V5 as funny how we got the DCBLtd letter!! It’s so unfair.0

Was it correct on the date of the incident ? Get the V5c log book out and check the date of the last change, does it precede the alleged contravention date ?Juliety said:Our address is correct on the V5 as funny how we got the DCBLtd letter!! It’s so unfair.
Can you think of any reason why 2 letters from them would go astray ?
Believe me, we have seen numerous cases of letters going to old addresses or astray2 -

The V5 has our correct address we were the 1st owner of the car / been at same address for 30 years. I cannot see any reason not to get the PCN and reminders?1

Doesn't matter anyway but it is odd.
Play the game like everyone else here does, once DCB Legal send a Claim Form ... which is EXACTLY what you want.
Why not just read any of the c700 cases linked in Umkomaas' DCB Legal Discontinuances thread?
And read the NEWBIES thread and the Template Defence thread (which we won't link, as nobody ever needs pinned 'announcement' info threads linked because they are stuck at the top of p1 of the forum).
Read around. So easy! Easier than appeal would have been. You won't pay a penny.
PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
