The season of COVID goodwill appears to be over as I have today received a letter from CST Law, dated 29/1/21, acting for DRP (2 page anonymised copy attached) requesting a payment of £160. The last letter I received from them was on 28/4/20! This letter talks about court proceedings and mentions CCJs and effects upon credit ratings..........more threats I assume. They also remind me that they can commence court proceedings up to 2026!! Also attached (anonymised copy) is a letter from the DVLA, dated 20/8/20 (I wrote to them earlier in the year but took ages to get a response, presumably due to COVID) giving details of the request for information by UKCPS; their reason was, "breach of terms and conditions of a private car park". I did not take this any further with the DVLA. Am I right to assume that I should carry on ignoring the letters until a 'letter of claim' is received? Thanks.....keep safe.

Hi For updated information, please find attached 2 letters (anonymised) received from DRP this month on the 7th and 28th. It seems like they are really, really concerned about my welfare becuase of COVID-19, firstly giving me extra time to pay them £160 and then offering me a "generous" £14 discount! Am in no response mode until a formal LOC is received. Times must be hard in the parking claim world!!!!!! I also wrote to the DVLA 6 weeks ago asking them for information regarding requests for my information, using one of your template letters. Had no response so have sent a reminder letter yesterday. Stay safe everyyone. DRP_070420.pdf DRP_280420.pdf

I have received the attached letter (anonymised) today from, "Debt Recovery Plus" requesting payment of £160 by 30/3/2020 or they will recommend their client to take court action. Am I correct to ignore this latest bullying letter, as suggested elsewhere in the posts here, and wait for a formal letter of claim? I feel like telling them where to go, and why, but am restraining myself. The letter does mention (bottom of page 1) a recent supreme court decision about parking charges. Is this case relevant to a 'no stopping' case such as mine? I have also written to the DVLA, using a template letter from this forum, requesting information on requests from companies for my details, and await a reply. All advice gratefully received.....................everyone keep safe and healthy at this challenging time. Thanks. DRP_130320.pdf

As a general update I walked along the access road yesterday and numerous new signs have been erected along the road, attached to light posts, and a larger on at one side of the entrance to the road, and at the top of the road where there are barriers; see attached pictures. The signs are larger and with larger lettering and explicitly mention DVLA. This might be interpreted as an acknowledgement that their previous signage was inadequate. Notices.pdf

My apologies. Read a lot of other threads and now think one mention a letter from a debt collectoor rather than bailiffs. Thanks for the advice received so far.

Information requested: 1. Date of the infringement – 31/12/2019 2. Date on the NTK [this must have been received within 14 days from the 'offence' date] - 14/1/2020 (not within 14 days from the ‘offence’ date?) 3. Date received – 15/1/2020 (date of offence + 15 days) 4. Does the NTK mention schedule 4 of The Protections of Freedoms Act 2012? [Y/N?] NO 5. Is there any photographic evidence of the event? Yes a picture on the NTK 6. Have you appealed? No Have you had a response? N/A 7. Who is the parking company? UKCPS 8. Where exactly [carpark name and town] Gateway House Piccadilly Manchester So glad I did an online search and found this forum, reading a number of posts, before considering paying this parking charge! I drove up the road, as I have done several times in the past, to drop off someone at the station. I was stationary for less than 1 minute. I was not aware of the relatively new stopping charges, nor did I see any notices about them. I have received 3 letters so far from UKCPS (anonymised pdf file attached), the latest being a 'reminder letter' saying I owe £130; original charge was £100, reduced to £60 if paid within 14 days. I have not replied to any of these letters, or paid any money, as advised here, and await further possible bailiff / solicitor letters before, as stated in the forum, getting a 'letter of claim' to which a response is required. As registered keeper of the car at the date of the offence, and driver, I have sold the vehicle recently. Can I still contact the DVLA to find out if details were provided legally as per a template letter I found here? I will also be providing all details of correspondence to my local MP. Thanks for the site and for helping me, and others!!!! UKCPS_Letters.pdf
