Hi,
I'm having a real nightmare with a JBW enforcer.
I went out to my car around 3pm yesterday to find a sticker on the window with a notice saying this has been immobilised, but no clamp. Rang the number and was informed that I owe money and the car will be getting towed if I don't pay. He couldn't give me any details so I didn't give him any details of my own.
I rang the head office and was told by the lady that I have a yellow box fine from Croydon council that I haven't payed and I owe them £513.I told her I have had nothing sent to me and we worked out together that the letters have been going to my old address and I have forgotten to change the address of the car. She quite rightly said that is an offence and I haven't got a leg to stand on. I replied back saying that I have proof that I haven't lived there for 6 months and this is the first I've heard of it and I'm yet to see proof of the offence.
I rang the traffic enforcement centre and they couldn't help me as I need the original PCN number, which I have never seen.
I now have this guy ringing me every hour kindly requesting that I pay the £513 to him directly and I can appeal it later.
He said if I don't pay the car will be towed and the fines increased.
I luckily have a friend with a gated property so I have put the car out of site there until I sort this out.
I still have not seen any proof of this offence and have not even met this bailiff, he cannot give me the original PCN number either.
Please help in how to play this one!
I'm not prepared to hand over any money to the vultures and the one piece of info that I have mistakenly given him is my mobile number and now he is repeatedly calling off a private number trying to "sort this out"
The first phone call was at 6am today I might add!
