Is there a time frame that a court would consider unreasonable before these companies take you to court.

I was looking at the UKCPS website and noticed a new section under the heading COURT. It lists some victories are these real cases?? www ukcps net

thanks for the replies. I shall await their first response. Although now they don't have to spend £2.50 getting my details from the DVLA will i be entitled to a discount? Plus i spoke to trading standards. they thought that some new legislation came in (2010) to stop people ignoring these things. The person i spoke too wasn't well informed as they don't deal with this

thank you for the quick replies.

Hi I am after some advice as i have tried to read threw these posts and every bit of advice i see seems to be to ignore these letters threatening court action and to pay the fine. I stupidly parked in a disabled bay when i am not disabled. However I had two young children with me 2.9yrs and 9months both of whom were a sleep at the time in the car. The shop i needed to go in was 100 yards from the parent and child bays. Which at the time were full, one of which had a blue badge holder in. Since the large amount of disabled bays were free including several right outside the shop i needed were empty i parked there. I was no longer than 2 minutes from entering to exiting. But enough time for the ticket man to be standing there fixing a ticket to my car and then taking a photo of the said ticket. I had planned to pay this seeing the pay in 14 days and the charge of £100 is dropped to £60 incentive. However the ticket has now gone missing with it the ticket number so i can no longer pay it online. I have searched for this company UKCPS and found their website and entered my details including my vehicle reg and home address details for them to send me the ticket number. I believe that they will not send me the ticket reference number in time to pay the reduced amount and may have me over a barrel. Can anyone offer any advice on what to do. many thanks
