Re: UK Car Park Management- Fined while waiting to pick up a

I assume what I have received is a Letter of Claim?
If so I was told to come back once I had received it.
That to me suggested there was to be some further instructions.
So there's no misunderstanding on my part, what do I do next?
Thanks

No. That's debt collector trash that can be filed and ignored.

A third party debt collector cannot issue an LoC. They are not a
party to the contract allegedly breached by the driver.
An LoC will tell you that it is a Letter of Claim (or Letter
Before claim or something similar). Also, a real LoC must give
you 30 days to make payment, not the 14 days that these
powerless debt collectors give.

Although it’s been said I can ignore the letter from Debt
Recovery Plus, I’d feel more at ease replying to them and tell
them a reason why I will not be paying.
It may be a waste of time but I just feel better in myself if I
don’t ignore people.
Could someone help me with that please?
What about
Dear Sirs
This is to inform you that I will not be paying as I dispute
this charge in its entirety and require full evidence of
compliance with the law, industry codes of practice, and basic
contractual principles.
It might not be relevant to this debt recovery company but at
least it’s something and I can’t be accused of ignoring the
letter

Someone correct me if im wrong but dont operators who use anpr
system must have that stated within their signage? I know CPM
slip up a lot and dont mention anpr is in use on the actual
terms and conditions signage but sometimes they mention it on
the entrance sign. May be worth for OP to check if there is any
mention of anpr being used on the signage.

Do not feel bound by politeness to respond to debt collectors.
They can do nothing except send you letters and should be
ignored completely. If you respond to them you could make things
worse for yourself by revealing something that you shouldn't.
There is no upside for you all.

Agreed, do not reply to debt collectors, you are trying to be
polite and reasonable, but they don’t give a toss about you,
other than your credit card number. Replying will only notify
them that you’re on their hook, and will increase the number of
threatening letters you get, plus - as said - you might put
something in writing which will harm your position later.

Absolutely not!!! Do not correspond with Debt Recovery Plus.
They are a powerless third party with no standing, no authority
to sue, and no relevance to any alleged contract. Engaging with
them achieves nothing but invites more templated demands.
If, despite clear guidance, you insist on writing to a debt
collector, you are advertising yourself as low-hanging fruit on
the gullible tree who is likely to eventually pay up out of
ignorance and fear—the very profile these outfits are set up to
exploit. You can safely shred their letters, ignore them, and
stop legitimising a bystander.

Thank you, messaged understood, I will ignore the letter.
I'm so glad for the guidance because I'd be in trouble if left
to my own devices.
Thanks again

Hello, back again.
Just to say I've received another letter from Debt Recovery
Plus.
It says I owe £170 and if legal action is taken against me it
will rise £280
Reason for issue is 'VRM not registered on the E-permit system
ANPR'
I assume nothing has changed, I ignore the letter and continue
not to correspond with them?
