Debt Collection Baliffs - To ignore or to pay

Lol, explain how there is a legal debt at this stage.

You're clearly a 'dick' who doesnt have a clue what he's talking about.

If there was a debt they would be banging on the door - they're not because there isn't a debt. It's also not a fine it's an invoice.

The op needs to join the below group which will give him the correct advice.

Not quite. Once they have a judgment they can enforce through bailiffs.

They have sold your "debt" to another company for pennies and they will try to scare you into paying it through letters.

Ignore. Always.

If they have done this, from past experience, it may be worth you contacting them and negotiating, without prejudice. Stand your ground and go in at 40%, settle at 50%. They will / should be prepared to negotiate. The guy on the phone will be on a bonus and he'll want something rather than nothing.

Just don’t engage and don’t pay.

More bad advice.

Bailiffs cant enforce private parking invoices. No bailiff will be at the op's door.

Just be careful what you are stating as a fact.
If the parking company goes to Court and wins, the bailiffs can enforce the debt plus costs if it is not paid.

It’s not his or his wife’s mistake but the parking companies. A ticket was issued, their money taken, that the ticket was not fit for purpose - how is that their fault? Don’t forget that the parking company also has their money. The sums are irrelevant, the principle isn’t.

I know someone else who got parking ticket in same place Mrs MB did for same reason, used my defence as above and also won as the parking firm didn’t attend court. They also went for their costs. I think it was £300 odd quid I got out of them for about 20 hours of my time to prepare my case - I didn’t even have to attend court as the firm never paid their fee so the case was thrown out - apparently it is/was a trick they use… if you don’t defend they pay the fee and win by default if you do defend they don’t pay the fee and the case is thrown out. I just filled in a court costs form and that was a formality to be awarded costs. I also got plenty of threat-o-grams before they went for court.

Nope. The poster has already admitted it was his wife’s mistake putting the wrong reg in to the machine.
The car parking company merely issued a ticket from the information provided.

Then let them prove their case in court. Put up or shut up as nothings owed until they acheive this.
