I love a battle with a bureaucrat me. My father took on all comers at this, especially British telecom (he lived next door to a telephone exchange) and passed the baton to me. I had a few goes at unwinables when I was younger but have settled down recently to only having a go if I know I haven't erred.
So I love this one. I have received a Charge Certificate from the City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council explaining that as I haven't paid my parking fine from June it has gone up by 50%. Three problems with this:
1. I didn't get the first Notice, apparently sent in July.
2. At the time of the alleged offence I was on holiday in Malta and my car was not in use.
3. I have not been to Bradford for over ten years.
So this one may run. I have phoned and left a message and sent a letter.
Someone is using your number plates. Quite common for stolen vehicles. They find vehicle that are the same colour and model and use your plates. good luck.
