BW Legal and letter of Claim

[cburgess]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone could help me. I had a PCN in July 2014. I was told at the time that Vehicle Control Services Ltd had no way of making this payment and to ignore it! I did and the letters went away until May 2016!

I've now had 3/4 letters stating they are instructed by their client to recover the balance of £154 for the pcn. They're also threatening county court proceedings.

Has anyone got any advice? Should I pay it in full? The last letter was a "letter of claim"

Thank you in advance x

Dear BW Legal,




I write in response to your final notice which i take to be a letter before action dated 20th June 2016, the contents of which are noted.




As the pre action protocols expect us to exchange sufficient information to understand each others position please forward to myself the original parking charge notice and a picture of the signs at the location as well as the operators contract which allows them to operate at the site (or indeed confirmation they own the land in question).




As well as the information already requested please answer the following questions :-




What type of car park is it ?




What contravention gives a cause of action ?




Who contravened your rules ?




Who you are pursuing ?




Have you followed the rules laid down in the Protection of freedoms act 2012 schedule 4 ?




How is the £154 made up ?




Not only will this information help comply with the pre action protocols it will also help achieve the over riding objective.




Having done some research on your claims i request that if you ignore my requests for information that your claim complies with
