I am sorry to bring these guys up again as from reading around they really dont deserve the attention, but some advice would be really appreciated.
We recieved a PCN from Civil Enforcement Ltd (CEL) in mid december relating to our car been parked in a supermarket car park (Sainsbury's, Colton, Leeds) for a few hours, whilst my wife was at work over the road. Having followed the advice on a number of other threads relating to them we ignored the first letter/ fine etc (that looked decidedly dubious anyway).
We have since recieved a reminder today stating that payment of £120 is due within 7 days of the issue date which would be on the 14th Jan or as they put it:
"Failure to pay the full amount within seven days of this notice will result in us seeking a County Court Judgement against you. A warrant may then be issued to bailiffs to recover the amounts due, plus fees, bailiff costs and interest"
"Your ability to obtain credit in the future could be affected"
"Your ability to obtain credit in the future could be affected"
Now my initial reaction is to follow previous advice given and continue ignoring them, but my wife is a little concerned about the threat about future credit, as she is Danish and we struggled with her credit rating when she first moved here in 2003 (i.e. she didnt have one) and she/we dont want to have similar problems again.
I think what i am really after is some general support to say yes you are right, continue to ignore them, or have CEL turned over a new leaf for the new year and things are now different?
Any help, support or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks in advance for any assistance provided.
