CIVIL PARKING CHARGE NOTICE , Lidl
Archie MacFee replied to single_man's topic in Private Land Parking Enforcement
I think ignoring is the wrong option. Write as I did, telling them that there are multiple drivers of the car and you don't keep records, so have no way of knowing who was driving at the time. This lets them know that you're 'aware' of the rules. They should then know it's a waste of their time trying to take things further. If you ignore, they'll just keep going with the scare tactics - it's what they do for a living. -

Well, there's slightly varying advice. I took the view that by writing, I can not be accused (If it ever did come to court) of being unreasonable. On the basis of what I put in my letter, I can now reasonably ignore anything further. There will be no further dialogue whatsoever. -

Sent the template letter. Haven't heard a peep since. Fingers crossed. -

Now here's a question. Just got almost the same letter as above for overstaying in Lidles. What happens if my Missus parks in Lidles again, if she doesn't pay the 'fine'? Can she be clamped? -
Sometimes you just wish we were a bit more like the French - get out on streets and burn a few tyres now and then!

OK, so I get a weird voice text thingy, telling me to phone a particular debt collection agency about a fine. What fine? No idea. So I phone the number, and it appears that the DVLA have fined me for not renewing SORN on a car that I sold almost a year ago! The SORN did overrun, because I didn't realise I had to renew it. (Surely once you've declared a vehicle 'off road', that should be it until you declare it 'on the road'??) Anyway, apparently they sent the fine originally to my old address. So far, I have nothing in writing from DVLA to confirm the fine, though I now have a letter this morning from the DCA threatening me with action for ignoring letters from the DVLA. I see from earlier in the thread what to write to the DCA, but not sure how to approach the DVLA on this. Any advice appreciated.
