Does anyone know if this can be done, its for a parking charge from the council (london borough of barking and dagenham)
been a fookin nightmare, even been to court and got ruled in our favour but tw@ts still coming at us.
Hi, new to the forum, thanks for any help in advance.
OK background.
4 years ago, i bought my partner a car a Daewoo matiz , after having the car for a month, i realised that it was not the right car for my partner and needed some work doing to it which i didnt feel i wanted to do, so i put the car back up for sale and sold it on to a car dealer, filling out the slip and sending the slip off with the new registrants details on etc etc .
i then proceeded to forget about it, until we received a PCN notice through the post from london borough of barking and dagenham........
and thus started this epic marathon to try to prove we didn`t own this vehicle at the time of the infraction.
i started by ringin the LBBD (london borough barking.....) who stated that according to their records it was my partner who owned the vehicle at the time and so it was her who was responsible for the fine and that i should contact DVLA to see what they say. The DVLA who initially (for about 2 months) categorically stated that my partner had never even been on record as owning the vehicle ever, let alone when the infraction was dated, eventually they came through after me complaining to there head of complaints, who wrote me a nice letter stating that it was a clerical error on there part and that there records had been amended to show me as not owning the vehicle at the time of the infraction, they even sent me a ltter explaining that:
i disposed of the vehicle on the 19th june 2008
the infraction occurred on the 24th june 2008
I then went back to london borough of barking and dagenham and explained this, sending them copys of the letters etc etc.
3 weeks later i received a letter from them, basically saying (and this is nearly 100% verbatim)
"we have looked at the evidence you have provided but feel you are still liable for the PCN............."
How they came to this conclusion i do not know, but i pursued and finally rung got through to them again but they basically said i was liable for it...
I cannot remember exactly why i ended up ringing the magistrates court as this was such a long time ago, but the woman i spoke to basically said that the best thing for me to do would be to "statutary out of time" (i think thats what it was) and she said she would send me some forms to fill in and that i could then get it reviewed by a judge / magistrate who would look at the evidence and rule on it.
This i did, and i have a letter here stating that the court found in my favour and cancelled the origina charge. I also received a letter from LBBD stating that they no longer wish to pursue the matter AT THIS TIME
I have attached the letetrs that i have, i donot have the letter from LBBD though.
I started receiving letters from JBWgroup a few months ago and have thus far ignored them, however the frequency and threats have gained and today i received one from them that they say was hand delivered.............
it states this information only (apart from there usual terms, i.e. pay now, avoid being murdered etc etc)
date: 06/02/2012 00:00
balance before todays visit : £206.44
attendance to levy fee £68.40
attendance to remove fee £210.00
total balance now due £484.84
now all this is printed, on the envelope it states hand delivered, but has nothing `wrote` on it, so if they are trying to say that they are charging an extra £278.40 as they have actually been to my premises, then surely this would of been wrote on the letter, unless they have a laser printer in there van, and also the only time stated on the letter is midnight (which they certainly didnt come).
Another thing is on my house i have 4 CCTV cameras , i left my house at 8:40am and arrived back at 11:40 am, and the only person to come on my property within this time was the postman, so they havent actually been at all.
surely this is wrong? they are lying for a start.
I have just emailed the DVLA again asking for confirmation from them and clarification on the matter.
OK so my questions are:
What do i do now? Do i contact LBBD or the debt recovery agency, i am reluctant to contact these shiesters as it may be subject bart are coming up for it, and i know if they receive correspondance then they can renew there efforts to the full.
Where do i stand?
LBBD through out this whole matter have been completely unco-operative and non plussed.
please help
OK late comeback i know, so just thought i would fill in on the situation so far.
To be fair i have fairly ignored this situation as it just annoys that i have to waste my life so much trying to get idiots to do there jobs properly, and as i explained the other day to the bailiff (more on that) i should of just paid the bloody PCN it would of been cheaper in the long run.
so countless letters coming to house in my partners name and then telephone calls and txt messages from jbw genrally harrassing, threatening and trying to instill fear in us. my partner in fairness has not replyed to any messages, nor confirmed on any voice call who she is, but its just gettign annoying now.
so the other day i was woken buy a hi vis wearing bloke at the door., i opened the door to be met by his clip board being opened and a police type card being clearly visible , im not ignorant to the ways of debt collectors and bailiffs and how they try to instill fear, but never the less i answered the door, was asked to my face "miss jennifer xxxxx? lol sorry but i had to laugh at him, my reply was "does it look like her?" (im male, short, stocky, skinhead, goatee and big tattoos) , the bailiff not being one to smile asked when she will be back, :-
me: who are you?
him : silence
me: well who are you?:
him: steve!
me: steve, from where?
him: silence.....
me: well listen mate you just knocked on my xxxxing door, who the xxx are you?
him:.......im from .....jbw.....
me: bailiifs then? or debt collector?
him: court appointed bailiff!
me: well if your a bailiff your endorsed by the ministry of justice, so show me your MOJ ID card........please
him: .......er....yeah....its hear, get asked for it all the time (yeah right, he was well shocked)
me: ok wait there......(slammed door and still had his ID card)
meantime i got my evidence, and hes now checking out my doggy signs on the door, windows and letter box, we have a lovely staffordshire bull terrier, who does her job and barks and gets a bit excited when people knock, shes a very good dog but she knows her territory.....mean while, hes taking particular interested in my "this house is guarded by a pitbull with aids....." sign
i come back to the door and start to basically tell him, jennifer is my partner, she doesnt live here, and this house and nothing in it belongs to her, her name is not on the tenancy agreement and he has no roght to be here (not sure on that but i`ll get to that)
i explained the situation to him and provided my evidence, he wasnt really interested and just said , fax it to the office and get on the LBBD and that he has to leave a note to say he has been there which i accepted, but have not signed for anything etc etc, its in my partners name who legally doesnt live hear. the paper is just adding charges etc etc, but it doesnt include a breakdown of them so thats not right for a start,
anyway he buggered off, not before saying i was "very irate" which i think is understandable, and i truly truly honestly believe that this lad, had it of been my partner , or someone else who looked like they wouldnt put up much of a fight would of answered the door he would of forced entry or got his foot in the door. Had it not been for me winding the dog up a bit ( i never said anything to him about the dog, she wasnt visible to him but he knew we had one) i reckon it could of been him trying to force entry or being very very difficult.
now i have contacted LBBD again, scanned a photocopied everything and emailed it to everyone i can think of, sent stuff off to the executives etc etc and am waiting for reply.
on another note speaking to charles who works for LBBD who is meant to sort out PCNs has been very difficult, through out this whole situation i have been as calm as can be expected, i have not abused anyone, apart from being irate i understand people have a job to do and its not there fault the system stinks. Now charles was meant to ring me back yesterday but didnt, so i rung him, he sounded really ****ed off that i did and stated that my PCN was that old the prefix was no longer used, and i should email all the evidence to him and he would sort it out.
so i did, but had to ring him today to get his last name so that i could adress the email to him, so i rung him............no answer, all day 31 phone calls to his number, not one answer.
i used my partners phone to ring immediatley after hanging up from my phone the phone was answered within 2 rings. i asked him was he avoiding me?
you could tell that from his tone he certainly was and though he said hed not had any missed called i could tell from my end his cheeks had gone read.
anyway i`m going to email the bailiffs now, not that its gonna do much good, but i will post back anyway and let you know.
on another note, can i not withdraw intended right of access to JBW group?
does anyone know?
cheers
