Hi again it's been awhile and today received a letter from Expedition debt recovery on behalf of their client ANPR with an official looking claim form with Northampton County Court and asking me to indicate a preferred court for the hearing. I have not been given a popla code by ANPR so what should I do it's tempting to call the debt company to see if they exist.

Just a quick update, I sent ANPR a letter with proof of post on the 28th May stating APPEAL at the top and asking for a code to be sent, on Saturday received a letter from them Final Demand for £140 in 7 days or they will hand the debt to local debt recovery agency. Should I respond again or just wait a bit longer for the code.

I don't know what good it will do but I have sent a complaint to DVLA asking why my details were given out without my permission and what checks they do before giving information like that out. I received a standard reply by email with a very interesting quote (In order to comply with the Data Protection Act we are unable to reply by email if it contains any personal information to you, if there is a need for personal information to be included then we will contact you by post) what a load of rubbish but it's ok to give out my details to anyone else.

Thank you all for your advise I will let you know what happens.

Sorry to keep bothering you but if I reply to them then I'm playing their game what if I just ignore them and if it comes to a head I just say I never received any letter from them and unless they have a picture of me with the car they can't prove I had the parking notice in the first place.

In the letter they just describe the vehicle and the reg which is registered/hired to you.

Sorry please ignore put in wrong thread.

Thanks for your reply I've read some comments on the same subject and they say only to state that I am the RK and that I am not liable and to tell ANPR to cancel or send an appeals code.

Thanks for your reply I have been reading some comments and one said not to admit you were driving only that you are the RK.

Hi all, as asked I am letting you know that I have received a letter from ANPR Ltd it say's OUTSTANDING PARKING NOTICE and are asking for £100 now as I have not paid in the time stated, because they had to get my details from DVLA the new total is £140 but they can only charge this after 42 days have lapsed so an early settlement of £100 is diminishing fast their words. Any advise please.

Thank you for all your comments and advise, my concern is that they have a good case as I should have paid and did not check the parking times so if I wait the cost goes up and that is a worry, do you really think I should call their bluff?

I have just checked and they ANPR are members of the BPA which means the DVLA will give them my details should I be concerned.

Thank you for your help so far I found out the owners phone number and called him to ask if he had employed ANPR he said he had to because people were parking all day and not paying I told him I was parked for 10mins max and thought the charge that ANPR were asking for was a rip off he said I would have to contact them and he was unable to help and that he did not get any of the money they get. I WILL NOT BE CONTACTING ANPR.

Thank you Silverfox do they have to send the notice within so many days or did I read the other posts wrong.

Yes that's right thankyou
