Hi all just thought i would post to let anyone who is interested know that i never heard anymore after the 2 scary solicitors letters. so just ignore seems a good tactic. something interesting i spotted today while in the morrisons where i originally got the unsolicited invoice was that the cp-plus badged pay and display machine cash boxes were being emptied by morrisons staff! indicated a closer tie between the two company's than morrisons would have you think!

nnnnoooooooooooooooooo dont pay! i got one of these from cp plus in morrisons. (40 pound) i followed the advice from here and didnt sent any money or letters or anything. after 6 weeks i got a solicitors letter telling me they were going to take me to court, reposese the dog, and put a bat up the wifes nightdress, result? - nothing happened. another 4 weeks later i had a letter from the solicitors again virtually begging me to just give them any money, anything at all, or they would come and have me hung until i was dead and my limbs sent to the 4 corners of the empire as a warning to others. (ok i exaggerate slightly,) now 6 months later nothing has happened. its a huge [problem] and if you pay the [problem] continues to get another person , (or mayby you again) dont pay and either ignore the letters or send them one put up or shut up letter. they will 99.99999999% likely not take you to court. if they did this forum would give you a watertight case i am sure. (but that academic, i know of no case of cp plus going to court). even if they took you to court and won,(as if), as long as you paid, they could not affect your credit rating or send balliffs or anything else. relax, drink your wine and follow the good people on this forums advice. m.w.n.n.

ok, couldnt make sense of the faq on attachments, will try linking. this first link is the letter i got first, about which the above posts are about. this link is the latest instalment, the next please please give us some money letter. it shows what thin ice these companys skate on. my favorite bits: 1st letter: if not recieved in 14 days court procedings will be issued without further notice 2nd letter: necessary to refer back to cp plus for instructions. both letters: no further notification will be sent. (so whats this then??) heading of 2nd letter: cp plusltd v yourself - trying to make it look scary and legal! hope they give you a good laugh regards m.w.n.n.

ok still cant attach anything, off to read the help files!!

nearly there i think........

going to post an update, with copys of letters recieved but need to get to 5 posts to be able to attach images as far as i know so just bear with me..........

interesting that you got your first letter back from cp plus from trethowans debt collectors. i got my first letter back from cp plus, a few days ago. - it came from trethowans solicitors! dont give in. either completely ignore or use the templates. regards m.w.n.n.

thanks for your replys. the letter is not signed by anyone! so do you think i should ignore it, or reply as i mentioned in my first post? thanks again m.w.n.n.

Hi all and thanks for a usefull and informative site! my problem: went shopping to morrisons in ???? in the middle of may. they have a pay-at-the-machine-and-get-a-refund-at-the-till car park. we didnt have enough change so didnt pay for the parking. (when we had no money to pay once before, we had been told by a staff member that it was ok as long as we were in the store shopping!) came out 20 mins later to find a £40 "fine" (invoice?) on the car. after researching this site i just filed the ticket away and waited for the reminder/last chance to pay us anything letter. got my FIRST correspondence in the post today, - a letter from trethowans solicitors demanding £40 by 8 august or cp plus would instruct that court procedings would commence with no further notice! heavy handed or what? so after my initial shock, my thoughts are to treat it as if it were a debt collection letter, send back a letter asking trethowans to refer the case back to cp plus as it is in dispute and then send the standard template "prove-it" letter to cp plusltd. does this sound sensible, or would anyone recommend a differant course? thanks m.w.n.n.
