CPP parking ticking, now sent DCBL Debt Recovery Letter
« on: »
Back Story, an old shopping mall with attached car park is under construction, driver was advised some shops were still open so visited after work one day, upon entering the car park the barriers were lifted. Driver parked and looked for an exit quickly realising that actually the centre had completely closed as the footpath exits were closed off/bricked up, driver tried different floors just incase, but returned to car and left, again on exiting the barriers were lifted, driver must have missed the signs, but this was all over in 6 minutes, driver then recieved a parking fine a few weeks later, to which driver was advised could ignore. Driver did and have now received notice of debt recovery.

Any advise is greatly appreciated as driver really feels for 6 minutes (and theyll see on the camera driver wasnt physically able to leave the car park) is a bit excessive

Driver is not the registered keeper of the car, is a spouse, and named driver.

This being Scotland, it is currently true that you can ignore. The debt collectors will send a barrage of ever more threatening sounding letters over the coming months/years, but will eventually give up.

(A point to note, it's the keeper who received the notice, CPP have no idea who was driving, and it should stay that way)

Debt collectors, whether in England (and Wales) or Scotland, can be safely ignored. They are powerless to do anything and they certainly cannot "don't pay we'll take it away". They hope that their victims are low-hanging fruit on the gullible tree and will poop their pants and pay up, the now inflated" charge withe the fake added £70 fee as soon as they see the word "bailiff" or "CCJ".

For future reference, there is no need to show us debt collector letters. Collect them and use as kindling, satisfied in the knowledge that they wasted some time and postage for naught.
