would this be the tel no of rossendales by any chance 01706 833772? They had my mother in hysterics today , ringing her up at home threatening demanding to know who was driving the car etc. Say they will send somebody round - debt collector? bailiff? she was too distressd to be sure.They insist she is legally liable - a phone call to the traffic police - advice without prejudice is that the owenr is only liable in criminal law . sadly the police cant do them for harrassment so going to see a 30 min solicitor. Looks like the parasites are getting wise to the forums and tightening the screw On one of the threads t read ages ago there was a list of legal bodies you can repart them to . Can anybody send me a link thanks

thanks people - hopefully she will sleep tonight now.

Can i just confirm with all you people in the know that the registered keeper is NOT legally liable for the fine. We are having bother with UKPC who persist in sending unpleasnt letters to my elderly mother even though i was the one who parked the car. Weve written to them , told them that the contract is with the driver ( who we are not naming as not obliged to). They are maintaining it is with the owner and that their parking notices make this fact clear. they are threatening all sorts and she is panicing and wanting to pay up. she is actually terrified that bailifs are going to come to the house. I am sayinghold fast. I expected them not to cave in at the first refusal but I am worried for my mum as she is gettin in a real state. They said if we could send the shop receipt they would wave it but we no longer have it - we didnt think to keep it as we were "charged" with leaving the car park and were not told that this could be later used in our defence. I spoke to a policewoman today who feels that legally the driver is not responsible but not beng an expert on civil law coudl not say with certainty. We will write again and tell them to get lost but I just want to be 100% certain. has anybody ever been taken to court by these sharks?
