Thank you dx100uk and brassnecked for your replies. I have submitted the AOS on the Moneyclaim website today and will post the CPR 31:14 letter to UKPC Ltd tomorrow (no solicitors mentioned anywhere, only a legal representative, ANGELIKA BRZOZOWSKA, so do I address the letter to her at the UKPC LTD address?). At no point have I admitted to being the driver. Do I need to do anything else at this stage? Thanks in advance!

Hello all, I have received the attached letter from UKPC in response to my snotty letter. Interested in comments, observations and suggestions on what to do next. Snotty letter also attached: Many thanks! Response to Snotty Letter.pdf Snotty Letter.pdf

Thanks Honeybee13 and Nicky boy for your replies.... I have drafted the following snotty letter, ready to post 27 days after the date on the Letter of Claim letter(14 June), so if I understand correctly, on 11 July? Any feedback appreciated! Dear UKPC I have received your letter dated 14 June 2023 headed: “Letter of Claim”. Now, I’m surprised people still fall for your bullying tactics……Well, sorry to disappoint, but I don’t! So I suggest you focus your efforts elsewhere as I have NO intention of paying the sum mentioned in the letter AND I am fully aware your claim has NO basis in law. Perhaps you could spend your time more constructively, as it would be wasted in this instance. I shall not respond to any more of your harassment letters, unless you decide to waste the Courts valuable time – in which case I would be more than happy to defend myself and send you packing with your tail between your legs. So please stop wasting my time and save yourself the embarrassment! Yours truly,

I have now received the attached LETTER OF CLAIM in the post. Please advise next steps.... Many thanks in advance Letter of Claim.pdf

Notice To Keeper - Final reminder Received this in the post a couple of days ago - continue to ignore? Notice to Keeper - Final Reminder.pdf

Thanks dx100uk I've uploaded pics of the signs from Google streetview using postcode RM7 0AF. It was dark and I didn't see any of these signs as I parked on the right as you enter (marked with red arrow) and there are no signs against the building on that side. The sign at the entrance is also very small so had no idea there were restrictions. Unfortunately I'm not local so would be difficult to get clearer pictures of the signs. Pic 1 & 2 - Sign at entrance Pic 3 & 4 - Signs when you exit Pic 5 - Signs inside the carpark - Zoomed but not clear enough Pic 6 & 7 & 8 - Shows where I parked (red arrow) and nearest sign (yellow arrow) Signs.pdf
