  1. You're welcome. If I hadn't found the previous threads and the support I received on here I probably would have gone ahead & paid my fine. So thanks to you guys here, helping to point out the chancers trying to bully people!
  2. Nope! Didn't hear anything more from them. I decided after the advice I was given here to use 'ignore them & see if they go away' as my initial strategy and they haven't contacted me again. If I do hear anything more I'll come back here & share. So based on my experience, don't even bother to reply to them.
  3. Ok, thank you, I'll definitely keep an eye on the letters. My reason for posting was that I'd seen lots of info about EPC threatening people but no indication of any actual court cases - not that that means they haven't happened!! The 'power of attorney' statement got me a little concerned but I also can't see that a UK small claims court would find against me for a non-UK issue. I appreciate the support here though and will post any updates.
  4. Thanks that's what I thought but just wanted to check there hadn't been some change post Brexit.
  5. Hi everyone I've received a letter from EPC with a £45.81 fine for no vignette plus admin costs of £44.98 while driving in Hungary. I simply didn't stop and get one under the assumption the Hungarian authorities couldn't get hold of me. I nearly paid up but a search on various forums shows pretty much everyone saying don't pay them anything as they're a bunch of sharks. The letter states they have been given power of attorney by the National Toll Payment Services plc in Hungary and are contracted to collect fines, however I couldn't find anyone on a forum saying they had actually gone to court and a UK court would not be interested in an offence committed on non-UK soil. However, the posts I read were a few years old, or older so just wanted to check the general consensus is still the same....? Cheers
