Good afternoon all,This is in relation to a PCN I received in February.After reviewing this forum extensively and following the standard guidance (appealing each PCN, not naming the driver, and ignoring debt collection letters), I’ve now received a Letter Before Claim from Moorside Legal on behalf of Parking Control Management (UK) Ltd, dated 7th October, for £170. I expect to receive three further letters relating to the other PCNs.The letter contains no stated deadline or specific instruction other than to pay the amount demanded.Summary of my situation:A total of four PCNs have been issued by PCM.The driver has not been identified at any point.I appealed each PCN both directly and via the IAS, using templates and guidance found on this forum – all appeals were rejected.The Notices to Keeper are not POFA compliant: they fail to specify the period of parking and omit the instruction to “pass this notice to the driver.”I complained to the landowner, who offered a “deal” but stated they were unable to intervene. I declined the offer.I have retained all original PCNs, appeal submissions, and rejection responses, which I can upload if needed.I’m prepared to defend these matters in court if necessary, but my immediate concern is to respond appropriately to this LBC, which is now 17 days old.My questions are:
- Are PCM / Moorside likely to combine all four PCNs into one claim, or will I need to defend each one separately?
- Do I need to respond to this letter and if so, what is the correct response to send to Moorside Legal at this stage?
Thank you in advance for your advice.[/pre]
