  1. Hi everyone, as a follow up to my last posting re CEL, my husband stopped the cheque as advised, at the beginning of April. This week he has had a letter from CEL saying that the cheque he submitted for payment has been returned by the bank and demanding he submit another cheque or they will start proceedings in County Court! This, presumably, is the cheque they previously denied having received, when they sent their 'final reminder' and increased the payment to £90! They must have had it all along but held it back in order to demand payment of the full amount. Regardless of the rights and wrongs of the initial demand, this is just extortion - demanding money under false pretences.
  2. Hi I'm writing this on behalf of my husband, who has fallen foul of CEL in the Co-op car park in Richmond, North Yorkshire. He parked there on 2nd February to do some shopping. Almost a month later, he received their standard parking charge notice from CEL, claiming he had parked there for 2hrs 15 mins. and was being fined £90, reduced to £45 if he payed in 7 days. He had been issued no parking ticket at the time, and they sent no proof, just said he had been caught on their cameras. I was very dubious about all this and thought he should make some further enquiries, but we were both very busy at the time and he preferred to just pay the £45 and get it out of the way, and sent a cheque. On Saturday, he received a final reminder before legal action, saying he had not paid and now owed the £90. They are threatening a county court summons and that his ability to obtain credit in the future may be affected, if he doesnt pay by April 4th. It seems to me the whole thing is just a [problem] to get money out of him, and would like to know if he is still in a position to use one of your template letters to refuse their claim? steaming
