CPS ANPR PCN - overstay - Spring St, Hull HU2 8RA ***Cancelled***

[FTMDave]

PPCs generally don't reply to the "changed address" letters.  The important thing is to have proof they've been informed.  That's it.  I suggest

e-mail them at the info@ address, and

e-mail them at the dpo@address, and

send a PM to TS6014.  I've just flicked through their thread and they have one of the directors' home addresses.  You could send a snail-mail letter there and get a free Certificate of Postage from the post office.  That would be proof of communication of new address x 3.

Still active on companies house,

so wouldn't a letter to them at International House 142 Cromwell Road, Kensington, London, England, SW7 4EF with proof of postage suffice?

 

[FTMDave]

The OP did that during their case NB, and the letter came back undelivered.

[Nicky Boy]

If it's only sent 2nd class, surely there is no record kept of non delivery?

And with the OP having proof of posting to the registered address would that not cover him?

[dx100uk]

yes it would. you dont have to prove delivery in law, just that it was sent.

[FTMDave]

Spot on!  I forgot that.

The OP needs the letter to really get there though to avoid any chance of a backdoor CCJ.

[brassnecked]

With a p[roof of postage that well predates any Claimform a backdoor CCJ might not work out too well for them.

GOOD NEWS

 

We have just received the following email in reply to the contact enquiry we sent via their website

the PCN has been cancelled and we did email to state this.
 

Kind regards

Now that we have confirmation that they have cancelled the PCN, I am trying to convince my brother to go after them for a breach of GDPR as they never had any cause to pursue him as the Registered Keeper. What are the groups thoughts on how best to pursue this?

 

PS - I will be advising my brother to make a donation.

Ho!  Ho!  Ho!  The PCN has been cancelled.  Why?  Because miley_b ob and CAG and are bad news for the two inbreds, that's why!

GDPR is a a bit of a high bar to reach, we've suggested it only in cases where the "offence" was so blatantly ridiculous they should never have issued an invoice.  In your brother's case, what did they reckon he had done wrong?  Yes, I know it's in the thread somewhere, but it's just easier to ask you!

[miley_b ob]

They were claiming "Overstay", but didnt provide any pictures, the signage was appalling, the PCN didn't state any entry/exit times and they never used POFA on the PCN and were out of time when they issued the PCN to use POFA anyway. So they had no reason to access & process his data.

Here's the PCN again for clarity...

Thanks NB.

Yes, it does look appalling.

I actually have to do some work now after travelling last Friday to Monday, but promise to have a good read through the thread from the start this evening.

[FTMDave]

So, yes, their PCN is ridiculous with no photographic evidence at all.  We spend our time laughing at the PPCs but the Chuckle Brothers truly are the stupidest of the stupidest.  My impression is that they have a background in other sectors of business and just latched onto the PPC scam as a way to make easy money, without having a clue what they're doing.

The only thing that worries me is that if your brother did sue for GDPR distress, it could go wrong if the fleecers do have photographic evidence salted away somewhere which they could dig out, and he could lose the case and have to pay their costs.

Also, what is likely to happen in practise is one of two things. 

SCENARIO 1  The buffoons ignore a claim form as they don't understand it and your brother wins by default.

SCENARIO 2  The imbeciles panic and run to Gladstones solicitors, who file a ludicrous defence in order to spin the case out and rip off, hopefully your brother, but certainly their own client.  We've seen this happen.

In any case, don't do anything immediate.  I think a little discussion with the other regulars over the next 48 hours would be a good idea.
