21.05.2026 Received missing letters including PCN and Debt Collector.
21.05.2026 CPM PCN [dated 02.04.2026] £60

18.06.2026 Debt Recovery Plus [dated 08.06.2026] £280

The registered keeper received third demand from Debt Collector yesterday. The demands go up from £170 to £280. The original PCN and first Debtor Collector letter were received after 49 days because no post was received about 5 weeks. Any advice would be appreciated. Many Thanks.

Not much you can do now, well past appeals and getting it cancelled or reduced to £20. Ball is in their court. Wait for a letter of claim and come back here for advice.

Could you post up the original PCN?

It’s in some or all of the imgpile links above. Eg the first one, and page down.

Found it.

So the PCN is not PoFA compliant.

Just a question of waiting for the Letter Before Claim.

Thank you for taking time to look at my case. I am new to this. Now they ask for £280. Can they keep increase the charge? Your guidance would be appreciated. Thanks.

I google PoFA compliant. I look again the first PCN. I forgot to attach the back. Is this the PoFA compliant? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
