Hi,
My father in law has had bailiffs at his door for a pcn for stopping his back wheels in a box junction in camden, He did not receive the original PCN or any correspondence until the bailiffs knocked at the door, he dispute this and was show a warrant with the wrong house number, the bailiff was insistent that it was what was taken from V5C. However, my father in laws car is on Motability and he has never seen the V5C, the only information he has is his general correspondence from motability, all of which is correctly addressed. He is a very honest man and had he received the ticket he would have made payment in the first instance, however he is now being harrassed for over £500 by Marston bailiffs who are uninterested in anything other than getting into his house. Can someone please advise the best course of action here please, he has already written to Marston, explaining but was sent a reply the next day, which did not acknowledge anything he had told them but just demanded payment and threatened forced access with a locksmith. Thanks in advance |

Just curious as to what this alternative to the v5c, which sparky mentioned, is tbh, never heard of such a thing. If there is some kind of alternate document, which dvla are privy to, which discloses my FILs address then it may be the source of all of this, and would obviously need to be amended... but to my knowledge there is no alternative to the v5c? He only said that RK shows as himself and FiL's possibly does but the address, as you say, is c/o Motability, which maybe Sparky missed? So all PCNs and NIPs would go there first.

......….but to my knowledge there is no alternative to the v5c? Nor to mine. DVLA can muck it up enough without two differing versions of an official document being in existence. But I would suggest talking direct to the horse's mouth and contacting DVLA with the question. It would seem that two differing types of V5C exist for Motability cars. Types of details shown I should say. One is one that shows the lessee as the RK, with their address. And I suspect is what Sparky refers to. One that shows lessee name with Motability address, which is what FIL's seems to be. I suspect that all are held, possibly even supplied as PDFs given the number that Motability must keep. There is no conflict with that, Motability can put down whatever address they desire, it is their vehicle. If someone wants a V5c in their name with their address, Motability simply request a change of keeper and supply new details to DVLA. New V5c sent once DVLA processes. In FILs case, as with many the simplest answer is often the right one. PCN raised, council requested RK details from DVLA..... got the details on the PDF you have a copy of. PCN arrives at Motability, they pass to their PCN department. Who get details of the Lessee from their records, send off a challenge based on hire ground with said details. Council get this, cancel original PCN and send one out to FIL with details supplied. What we don't know is who put down house number 23 instead of 25 ? If typed, someone misread or hit the wrong key, if handwritten, easier to misread. Motability or council was relevant as it could have strengthened the OOT. But IMO very unlikely to be due to a secondary database within DVLA |

It shows my name and my address under RK. I stand corrected and that's intriguing. One for another time perhaps. -------------------- |
