Apologies dx100uk, it states charge not fine

[stevehatesbankers]

Just an update, just received a threatagram from Recovery Debt Plus stating the Charge has increased to £160. They then quote Important Information about the Supreme Court ruling a parking charge was lawful details of which can be found at http://www.supremecourt.uk/cases/uksc-2015-01-16:html

 

These fellows dont have the best reputation in Debt collecting

[silverfox1961]

That case has no relation to this case. These muppets think Parking Eye-v-Beavis is a catch all and gives them Carte Blanch to say the charge is valid. Total bovine excrement!

 

DR+ are the go to for the majority of parking companies as they must think they have an air of legitimacy around them. Total tosh of course. Ignore!

[stevehatesbankers]

Another threatagram just arrived from DRP with a Notice of Intended Court Action for unpaid parking charge £160. They again remind me of the Supreme Court Ruling in November 2015

[DragonFly1967]

You can take that upstairs and use it for the only thing it's fit for if you like. If it wasn't so rough, you'd save a fortune on toilet tissue

Not sure I agree with that. IZAL toilet paper is even better than a letter from DRP

[dx100uk]

no that's emery paper then IZAL

[stevehatesbankers]

So its just a case of continue to ignore

[DragonFly1967]

Oh yes indeed

[stevehatesbankers]

A further letter has arrived with a Final Settlement Offer reducing the charge to £136 before considering court action

Just another update for you. The Parking Charge was passed to Zenith Collections who immediately reduced the charge to £79.99. A second letter has arrived from them stating the charge will revert to £160 within 14 days and then passed to their Legal department with the recommendation that legal proceedings are necessary

[honeybee13]

I don't think our advice will change, Steve. The time to do something is if and when you get a claim form, generally Zenith make empty threats.

[ericsbrother]

Zenith dont have a legal department, all of their activity is unlawful

[stevehatesbankers]

Well these have forwarded a Claim Form from the County Court Business Centre.

 

Their claim is for £160 plus a £25 court fee.

They have included a response pack N9SDT form together with an N9A form requesting employment and Income and Expenditure together with an N9B form.

A typed signature by Simon Ramshaw Smith is on the claim form.

Any guidance would be appreciated

Particulars of the claim.

3.Despite demand having been made, the Defendant has failed to settle their outstanding liability.

so its a vanishing windscreen PCN one.

and they filed their NTK too early anyway. [29-56 days]

 

the solicitors name will be bottom right on the front page of the claimform...BW or Gladstones I expect?

 

did they not send a letter of claim ?

[stevehatesbankers]

Just to confirm registration with MCOL and AOS is complete. Will post CPR 31.14 in the morning

[ericsbrother]

Simon Renshaw Smith owns the company. He lives to use the Ltd co to give himself dircetors loans that are greater than the actual bank balance of the company and them write them off. This menas if the manure strikes the air vent then he gets to stay in his nice house and the banks take a hit.

 

He used to use Gladdys and BWL but they lost him more money than they made so he went back to calling the odds himself.

 

It seems he has still not learned a lesson over what is parking and what is no stopping when it comes to a PARKING contract.

 

I expect this will go the usual way, you will have to do all the preparation and then he bottles out at short notice to save getting clobbered for an unreasonable behaviour costs order.

cheers ericsbrother, now that the AOS has been completed and the CPR 31.14 posted, is it a case of posting my defence or is it best to wait until they respond to the CPR 31.14.

As for this character SRS, he doesn't get many positive comments on the net

 

Its ironic you mentioned he does it alone as there were no solicitors mentioned on the correspondence
