    Yes and it's almost always on a small sign at the entrance. If not, Google for it.

    Completely forget any 'payment date'!
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    So it's scare tactics? They cannot enforce this or pursue a ccj? Do these people have any authority to do so?

    I presumed you'd first read the MSE Guide linked at the top of the page, and/or read post 4 of the NEWBIES thread with the pictures of these letters. This isn't anything new.

    Hello
    The managing agent who I sent a very long well worded email isn't back until 5 Jan.
    I also emailed DPO@EUROCARPARKS and have not yet received any reply.

    For peace of mind is there anything else at@this point?

    Thanks

    Nothing to do, just enjoy your Christmas. 

    Come back if/when DCB Legal write to you. Hopefully the managing agent will have sorted it beforehand. 
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

    Seconded.

    Except please edit your thread title to something suited to your case. Look at other thread titles on this board. The most helpful ones have the name of the PPC and stage the person is at.

    'Urgent Help' isn't needed (in fact it can be seen as an unhelpful and annoyingly meaningless thread title - sorry) and it doesn't even say in the tin what it is about or the name of the PPC.

    Hello

    I received this from my email to eurocarparks, please give me your thoughts. 

    Good day,

    Please be advised that the Parking Charge Notice (PCN) has been forwarded to the address of the registered keeper of the vehicle at the time that the PCN was issued.

    This address has been provided by the DVLA, it is your responsibility to ensure the DVLA are updated with your current address.

    Please be advised we are unable to accept your correspondence as this parking charge notice has now been passed to a debt collection agency.

    Please contact Debt Recovery directly with regards to payment on 0208 234 6775.

    All/any communication must now be with Debt Recovery Plus.

    Kind Regards,
    Customer Services

    Continue to ignore. Come back if DCB Legal (not DCB Limited) write to you. 

    Have you changed your address?  Why was ECP commenting on your address?
