DVLA/ Midas legal/ moorcroft.....

[henrysmom]

hello, this might need to be moved to the DCA forum, but i wasn't sure.

anyway, basically my boyfriend has received a letter from midas legal services regarding a sorn fine. the thing is, the SORN was declared, but obviously the dvla have done thier usual forgetting thing. he has no issue with paying the dvla, but i dont understand how its been passed onto midas legal without there being any warnings or prior notices. what happens with this, do midas/moorcroft have a right to collect this? also, the name on the letter is wrong, they have a mispelt surname for him. whats the best way to deal with it, can i get it passed back to DVLA, what can we send midas to find out why they have the debt and can we do anything on the grounds that the name is wrong?


cheers,

As the name is wrong I would simply return it as 'not known'

One presumes that his name is correctly spelled on the V5?

Yes it was, but the V5 is long gone as the car was sold almost a year ago...

I think we'll go with writing to them, stating that the person is not known at said address.

Thanks for the reply. Has anyone got some kind of template letter to send at all..?

Thanks!
