    Obviously they all try to scaremonger with the Beavis case but look: it's 11 years old so nothing new, isn't on all fours with other parking cases AND it effectively banned the £70 add-on that DR Plus have added!

    "Paying is your legal responsibility".

    Now that's more interesting, as it's an outright lie. It ISN'T for the keeper to pay.

    Smart Parking never used the POFA 2012 until a few months ago when they forum-shopped to the IPC to secure the promise of 95% industry appeal wins at the biased joke, the IAS.

    You seem to have missed the pictures in post 4 of NEWBIES PLEASE READ THESE FAQS FIRST. We beg everyone not to post about these laughable letters. As I replied to you weeks ago:

    Read the NEWBIES thread:

    • post 4 for pics of what to ignore
    • post 2 for when & how to later respond

    🙂

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

    I mentioned weeks ago that post 4 is the one with pics of the letters to ignore. You could go straight down to the photos on a phone in seconds, or search the NEWBIES thread (control & f on a laptop) for keywords like "debt collectors" to hop right there.

    Takes seconds to find the right section.

    Either way, you're only waiting for DCB Legal to send a LBC to start the 'end game'. Post 2 of the NEWBIES thread says what to do then.
