Invalid PCN number, lack of response from ES Parking Options

[PWynne]

ES Parking claim I "Did not pay and dispaly a pre paid voucher or place it in view". I do still have the pay and display ticket from the date in question. I wrote to ES Parking twice using and ammending templates I found on the internet, ES Parking sent back two identical standard responses. I then tried to appeal, perhaps unwisely, to the IPC however the PCN number was not recognised (I also tried the number on their online payment system to see if it would work here, again it was not recognised). I have since contacted ES Parking via their online contact form and letter asking for evidence of the parking violation and for a PCN number that works. I have not had a response from them but I have now heard from ZZPS Limited and Wright Hassall asking for money. I sent ZZPS a copy of the letters sent to ES Parking and explained on the phone that I have not had a response.

I am now asking for advice on what to do. Without a valid PCN number can the claim proceed? Should I contact Wright Hassall and explain or simply deny the debt? Is it now likely to go to court as I still refuse to pay the fine and would I have a leg to stand on due to lack of communication from ES Parking?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. MSE said Gan is really good at letter phrasing!

Thank you in advance for any help

Appealing to the IAS is a waste of time anyway.

Debt denied would make sense to me.

Never ever call. Always in writing.
