PPC // NTC Help! Conversation's since debt recovery DCBL has got involved

Hi,

Looking for some help please, I had received a NTK in the post and it was dated months before I received it so consequently out the appeal date time.

I received a private parking ticket on my windscreen.

I researched online and it said to appeal still using the template as the company is an IPC member and to wait until a NTK had arrived.

This was there initial response:

We are in receipt of your copy and paste internet appeal which we have seen many times before.

The period for appeal on this charge has long surpassed and as such we will not be processing said internet template. The case is with DCBL and they will continue to seek recovery of any unpaid parking charges owed

DCBL has now sent me a notice of debt recovery.

Again I researched on the noobies forum and it was said to ignore them, however because the PPC had you are 'too late' and it's now with a debt collector I was to send this:

Dear NTC

Re PCN number:

I note the contents of your letter and your request that I deal with dcbl.

For your information, I have already contacted them and denied the existence of any debt.

They have been told to refer the matter back to you and not contact me again.

I will not respond to any communication from them again.

There is nothing whatsoever to prevent your company from considering a challenge at any stage
Refusing access to your industry's alternative dispute resolution procedure would be unreasonable and a breach of the Civil Procedure Rules

It is well-established case law that, in the event of legal action, your company would be liable for the full costs of the claim regardless of outcome

As far as I am concerned, I have made a valid challenge 09/07/18 and the clock is running
If I do not receive a clear rejection along with a POPLA code within 35 days of the above date, I will regard the challenge as accepted and the matter closed

If dcbl are now dealing with the notice I suggest that you pass my challenge on and alert them to its urgency

Yours faithfully

This was then there response:

Good Morning,

Your ill informed position is noted.

It is not well established case law that we would be liable for all costs, specifically as you have failed to act reasonable and in a timely manner so could be liable under unreasonable conduct.

Additionally failing to offer an appeal to the IAS (with whom you said you would not engage, in your internet copy and paste appeal) is not breaching any requirements. Indeed this will be used as the reason for our refusal to enter into arbitration. "The defendant was afforded the option to appeal to the IAS who are a recognised ADR provider but opted not to do so".

Denying a debt is again an ill advice from the internet forums and indeed one which has cost one motorist in excess of £20,000 in Scotland.

You can regard the matter how you wish to. Our position is clear and remains unchanged. No appeal was submitted in time and no out of time appeal will be considered.

I have not sent DCBL a response yet because before I did somebody in another thread don't send them anything so I'm now really confused and don't no what to do next.....

DCBL are from the tv programme and so I'm even more worried about next steps as they do go round people's houses!?

Any help would really be appreciated!

Many Thanks.
