Notice of Debt Recovery dcbl

[Lollipop43]

Hi,

A notice of debt recovery and a final notice of debt recovery has been received from Direct Collection Bailiffs Ltd. They apparently relate to a PCN that was supposed to have been issued in July. The PCN was not received by us. It relates to a car park that was used and paid for (although there is no physical receipt it appears on bank statement but with the wrong car park named) .

They are now saying that they are advising their client to begin legal action and that we should pay to avoid this action. What should be our response please?

Quite honestly, if you do not intend to pay, you might as well just ignore them and await the court claim.
This will be prepared by sister company (the next desk or floor upstairs!) DCBLegal ltd)

You could write and tell them you have never received a "Notice to Keeper" and don't intend paying until you do.
They will probably respond saying you have missed the boat and can't appeal now, so pay up!

If/when you do contact them do not identify the driver (nor on open forum)

DCBLegal issue court claims like confetti at a wedding.
They only have one template, which can be challenged

if you require it we can assist in drafting your defence

Thank you, no we don't intend to pay because we did pay the parking fee before leaving the car park and have it on our bank statement although it specifics another carpark owned by the same company. We have been on the car park owners website and put in the PCN and the car reg and it comes up that they cannot find the PCN in their records

When you refer to "car park owners" are you referring to the parking company that manages the site(s) or the actual site owners?
