Hi,
I have received a fine in the post for a fine of £155 which is linked to a vehicle registration I have never owned or even heard of. The date of contravention was June 2022, and during that time I owned the current car that I have now, which is not the numberplate registered on the fine or even close to the numberplate.
The wording on the letter is below. Any advice?
Dear Mr XXx
NOTICE OF DEBT RECOVERY - Unpaid Parking Charge £155.00
You have an unpaid parking charge and Direct Collection Bailiffs Ltd (DCBL) have been instructed to collect the outstanding balance on behalf of our client. The parking charge was issued because the vehicle was parked in contravention of the terms and conditions outlined on the signage as agreed to by the driver when the vehicle entered and parked on private land.
You should make immediate payment by scanning the QR code below. Details of other ways to pay are on the reverse of this letter. To discuss your case, please call 0203 434 0428.
Supreme Court Decision about Parking Charges
A Supreme Court ruling in November 2015 reinforced that it is lawful for a parking operator to pursue payment of a correctly issued unpaid parking charge through the County Court. The case was an important test case for companies like our client. You can find further information online at:
https://www.supremecourt.uk/cases/do...0-judgment.pdf
At this point, you are no longer able to appeal the parking charge.
You now have 14 days from the date of this letter to either pay the outstanding amount or call us to discuss repayment.
Yours sincerely,
Жил
