many thanks for your various replies seeing the law hasnt changed , i will just ignore all the junk that will now come though thanks again

thanks all im somewhat undecided what to do; ive written a letter , but cant help thinking im better to just ignore , as indeed i have in years gone by Did the law chnage last year in relation to parking on private land , or have a dreamt that up myself ?

thanks for your quick reply renegadeimp are there any template letters on the site for writing to the owner of the car park ?

good evening I have this evening recieved a UK CPS Ltd PARKING CHARGE NOTICE at Cardigan Fields in Leeds - almost illegible as the self carbonated paper has barely marked In years gone by ive ignored such notices , however did the law change in 2012 ? do i have to pay this or should i ignore as I have done in previous years ? many thanks for your replies; im a little out of touch with the forum these days

good evening in jan i was issued with a local authority PCN which i have challenged as it should never have been issued. I emailed my local authority with a photograph of the parking issue and recieved an auto reply saying my ticket would be put on hold pending investigation and i would receive a reply in 10 working days. 2 months later I have heard nothing else from the local authority. Is there a statutory time period in which they need to reply to me ? On discussing this with a neighbour, they suggested that as local authority staffing levels have been slashed that perhaps quite simply they are unable to deal with the deluge of parking appeals.

Just over 3 years ago, as I had arrears on a car purchased through a main dealer, I agreed that the finance company , which im sure was then known as RFS, could collect the car which they duly did and i heard no more from them, nor was I asked to pay any monies, Suddenly a couple of weeks ago, I recieved a letter from Salans ( never heard of them ) saying that Solex have acquired the business of Salans LLP and I will shortly contacted by Solex. Im confused what does this mean and how can I not have any communication from them in over 3 years and then get a letter out of the blue. surely if there was any money owed, they can not leave it for over 3 years and then suddenly get in touch ?

Hi all BT Infinity broadband is coming to my area in January and it looks really good to me, as we only vurrently get a speed of 0.5 has anyone out there got BT Infinity ? how was installation, is it reliable and consistently fast ? many thanks seen the light

Hi AWC, i notice you say you only have 1 more payment to make on your IVA. My IVA has 18 months to run ( yippee ) so im in the home straight. however I wondered, was anything different asked for in your annual review at the end of year 4 or indeed as you entered your final year of payments ie was the annual review carried out as usual ? did any creditors try to be difficult when your year annual review take place ? I just wondered as im curious as to how the final year pans out. I seem to imagine that my final years payments could be hiked, not sure why Im htinking like this. anyway congratulations on almost being over the post. im 18 months away from having spare money in my pocket and whilst difficult in the early days of my IVA, its the best thing I ever did regards seen the light

Have faith in all previous postings; I have been ignoring similar from excel parking and they went away months ago. Similarly with NCP, I am now at the stage where I have recieved this week from ICC Legal Services Ltd NOTICE OF LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. This is a different organisation as showin the the NCP chain of letters as mentioned in a post earlier today, however this was for a pccn not a pcn in a private NCP car park. Whilst I can find no mention of ICC in any other threads on here I am not worried, I imagine as forum members no longer even respond to Graham White solicitors & Roxburgh debt collections, they are using another lmethod of extracting monies as part of this very proffesional ongoing [problem]. have faith !!

Thanks Lamma On checking its an ncp PCCN not a PCN, does this therefore mean I can just ignore as if it was from the Excell cowboys ? many thanks stl:-D

just read my post, apologies for all my typoes !!! maybe i need to learn how to touch type & spend 30 seconds checking my post before submitting !!

Its been a whilse ince my last posting; ignoring excell meant that it would appear they have ventually given up, havnt heard anything for months,, however on a similar subject, different company... At 11pm on Saturday evening, I parked in an NCP ( not council ) private car park. On the ground floor, there were several bays used for Car washing, empty at 11pm so i parked in one ( as indeed had some other cars by the side wall. On returning to my car at 4.30am ( deignated non drinking driver i hasten to add ) , there was a NCP PCN on the windscreen. I had a quick scout round and there was absolutely nothing near these spaces to say you couldnt park ( for soem reason the cars adjacent had not been ticketed and were there when i arrived at 11pm ). The reason given was that I had parked on a restricted area. I know that in soem areas, NCP wardens work on behalf of the council, not sure if this is the case in my town, but this car park is a private NCP car park; therefore should i treat this PCN as I would if cowboys company Excell issued it ie ignore it, as this is what i intend to do, unless it is legally enforceable

Hawadsworth yes im holding out... hopefully this will not backfire regards seen the light:-)

Baldy Man , Bar Steward I too have recieved a " FINAL WARNING " like the other posting from someone else today; I note we recieved the last letter from Graham White on the same date so am assuming you too will have had one of these today ? who knows, we could all end up at court on the same day HO HO HO regards seen the light:grin:

baldy man i will update as and when further communication is recieved. I suspect that your son and i may have to laughingly endure the same process at the same time. i tend to forget about it for a few months and then something will appear in the post out of the blue regards seen the light

bar steward thanks for the confidence you are giving us novices !! I have today recieved a NOTICE OF INTENDED LEGAL ACTION from Graham White Solicitors for some £142.25 which i will ignore. i hope you are all right with what you say !!! thanks and regards STL

many thanks bar steward I hadnt been on the forum since April ( not september as i wrote in my post ) and was trying to skip between posts last night to find the info regards STL

good evening all i communicated with Excel in September re a parking ticket at Forrester Square Bradford and they rejected my letter and since that time i followed the advice of this forum and have not heard anything, thinking they had given up I have today recieved a letter from Roxburghe debt collectors, shall i ignore it or write back to say i am in dispute with excel please advise many thanks STL

hi there im a bit out of touch with the bank charges debate, i received a refund from nat West just before the breaks weer put on. Nationwide possibly owe me about £350. should i start the process to claim now do you think or wait ? many thanks seen the light

hi everyone i have been reading these posts with interest. i parked in a disbled bay on the Forester retail park in bradford with a disabled friend the other week and placed the blue badge etc on the dashboard, however it was a windy day and must have blown onto the car floor as i closed the door. On returning to the car i had a ticket. I looked for a warden but couldn't find one. i emailed excel explaining the situation and offering to attend with my friend and the blue badge. They wrote back saying I had admitted the badge was on the florr of the car therefore I had " failed to adhere to the rules and regs of the car park ". i was just about to pay the tkt as today is the last day before it goes up to £100. What would you advise I do now ? could they clamp my car ( which incidentally is a company car ) now they have my home address ? many thanks seen the light

Hi there i had awaful stress caused by MBNA , they kept calling me at work 2 yrs ago whilst i was arranging an IVA. they never listened and work even threatened to give me a verbal warning over their constant calls. I was so stressed and they were ruthless, even asked could i not borrow money off a friend to make a payment. However, when they said i would not get credit for 16years i said that i had enough debt and never wanted credit again. regards seen the light

hi guys and girls this site has enabled me to reclaim my bank charges succesfully. Nasty west offered me £3000 back in may and i rejected. i do however have an iva and have arranged that when the money is paid into my defaulted nasty west a/c, Nat west are going to reduce the amount of money they are claiming from my IVA. i will now never get to see the money but at least my indebtedness will be reduced. I have posted my acceptance today thanks to everyone for there advice and support several months ago when i was quite active on the forum. Stephen and hedgy and others along the way were a greta help to me so i thanks you very much. kind regards and i will keep reading stl
