First of all, you can safely ignore the useless debt recovery letters. They are powerless to do anything. Al they can do is try and scare the low-hanging fruit on the gullible tree into paying out of ignorance and fear. Ignore those.

How come you do not know your friend's address in Sri Lanka? How did you insure your friend on your car?

You can transfer liability from yourself, the Keeper, to the driver at any point up a claim being issued. All you have to do to absolve yourself of liability is to provide their name and a valid address. The address does not have to be in this country. As it isn't, there is nothing else they can do about it except to make empty threats against you.

For example, your friend could reside at: No. 45, Galle Road, Dehiwala, Colombo 10350, Sri Lanka. You would have provided a valid address for the driver and therefore complied with all the requirements of PoFA.

For now, you may want to show us the original Parking Charge Notice (PCN), whether it was issued as a windscreen Notice to Driver (NtD) or a postal Notice to Keeper (NtK).

To report my friends Sri Lanka address, should I do this via email to them?

Also please, at what point should I pay them? As I cannot afford to take a ccj

Hi am new here, please excuse me for any mistakes as I'm not used to these forums etc, Please help, my friend who is from Sri Lanka was driving my car when he got this ticket, he is now in Sri Lanka and I cannot reach him, I do not know his address, please see details of letter

Please note I believe I received a PCN and notice of debt recovery letter before this which I ignored, from advice on Reddit

You have failed to pay or respond to our previous letters. 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. As the balance is still outstanding, we have now referred the matter to our Client to review commencing legal action.
If a claim is issued against you, further fees and costs may be incurred and these will be added to the balance that you owe. Thereafter, non-payment of the claim amount may result in County Court action being taken, where, if you are unsuccessful, a County Court Judgment could be entered against you. This may result in further enforcement being taken against you to recover the debt. In some instances, a County Court Judgment may affect future lending.
At this point, you are no longer able to appeal the parking charge. Your next opportunity to dispute the charge would be if the matter was taken to Court.

TO AVOID LEGAL ACTION, PLEASE MAKE IMMEDIATE PAYMENT TODAY.
