Hi - first post.

Have received today exactly the same letter as post 52 above, relating to an alleged PCN in Dundee on 7 December 2015.

I have a vague recollection of there being a PCN in the location a long time ago but am sure I haven't had any reminders since, so it's odd to have this final demand before court action 2.5 years later.

Maybe the Carly thingy case has got them excited, as they mention that although it has no bearing on what they're written to me about.

I assume I ignore?

Hi - I received a 'final demand before court action' from Pollock Fairbridge Schiavone solicitors today, relating to an alleged PCN in Dundee in December 2015.

I have a vague recollection of there being a PCN in the location a long time ago but am sure I haven't had any reminders since, so it's odd to have this final demand before court action 2.5 years later. Maybe the Carly thingy case has got them excited, as they mention that although it has no bearing on what they're written to me about.

I assume I ignore? Advice appreciated, thanks.

No such thing as pofa nor trespass in scotland

Have you moved since then?

no - same address, same keeper, same car.

I have received other letters from VCS in that time relating to one PCN at another location in Dundee, which I have not replied to, but that string hasn't reached the solicitors stage

then ignore

unless they are stupid enough to issue a Scottish claim which can be killed dead easily.

they ar sols but simply a diff letterhead in the same printer

You could respond by saying that you require they provide "strict proof" of who the driver was as they appear to be contacting you soley abecause you are the keeper of the vehicle and there is no liability in this matter in that capacity. say that if they cannot provide this evidenec then they should stop abusing your personal data by processing it when they have no authority or reason to.

Thanks for the replies - appreciated.

I'll do nothing for now, but the wording about strict proof and personal data (esp. with GDPR I guess) is handy to remember if they take this further.

Yes, if they do sent a letter before claim then you put this in a response ( along with other choice phrases ) so they know you arent burying your head in the sand but just hold them in contempt

Hi mate,

I was wondering if anything came of your letter of court demand from pollock fairbridge solicitors?

Just got one through the door myself.

Cheers!

Please start of new thread

You are in scotland ignore!!

start a new thread and tell us about the event leading up to this. Generally when it gets to this type of letter it is the last hurrah before they go away but better to know thine enemy.
