I'd suggest putting 'not known at this address, please RTS' on the envelopes too.
The only thing that concerns me is that if you've received confirmation of a CCJ, at your address, it could potentially effect your credit rating so I'd be wanting to contact the court on that one..

This should help. Contact your local Magistrates Court and tell them you wish to make a statutory declaration on oath. You will be given a date and time to attend (this is usually quite quickly and may even be on the day you contact them). When you attend court you will swear on oath or affirm that you are not the legal owner of the car and never have been - take along any proof you have I.e. the letters you are receiving and those you have sent and any research you have done into this matter - simple as that. This means that the court will recognise you are not liable for any parking or speeding tickets etc. in your name for that vehicle - as any unpaid fines etc. will be pursued by the court and you could find yourself summoned if you do not put a stop to this now. Once you have made your statutory declaration, inform whoever has issued the parking tickets that you are not liable for them as stated in court. They should then withdraw any bailiff notices against you - as this could also affect your credit rating the longer it goes on. I would certainly advise against doing anything as regards the 'official' documentation of the vehicle just to get your own back! Pretty sure the car is not in Matt's name, just at his address, so he wouldn't be liable for any fines. CCJs are tied to a person, not an address. A CCJ at your premises under someone else's name does not affect your credit rating. |

It shouldn't, but it can and does if the person that it's been issued to has other traceable ties to the address (electoral register, CAIS data etc.). It's certainly the case with the 'scorecard' my employer has set up with Experian. I didn't think that through before.. so in this case it wouldn't have any effect. |

The Experian site itself says that a previous tenant's CCJ will not affect your Credit scoring, and that it's only tied to the person. |

I've never looked but I don't doubt it... My experience though, is that a current occupant will make a difference. And don't forget that what I use at work will be different to what the general public will use due to our custom scorecards. It's impossible, for example, for an individual to achieve a 'perfect' 999 score through the system I use. Something of a moot point now though as it won't make any difference to Matt  |

I've had something very similar before.
All I had to do was turn up at court,swear on the bible that I didnt own the car in question etc etc and it was fine,took all of 5 minutes.
As for anpr pulling you for having a car not registered to an address is complete and utter nonsense,it only detects no insurance,tax,Mot or licence.
Every car has been registered at some point to someone so it will show as registered on the computer,unless it's been disposed of (not scrapped,something very different,this allows you to tax a car without a v5 as the previous owner says they no longer own it).
I drove a Corsa for several months without it being in anyone's name and never got stopped,I drove it up and down the country as well.

Not quite it also flags up cars of interest to police, I have had a car registered as of interest to the police in the past and got pulled over several times - why Lincolnshire police couldn't have just knocked on my door and asked why my car had been in the area of a robbery I don't know  |

I will get round to finishing it at some point

Simply write on the envelope of all correspondence "not known at this address" and put it back in the post box. DON'T open any post not addressed to yourself. Not returning the post is telling the senders the person who it's intended for is actually receiving it ! DON'T sorn or anything else - just ignor as it's not addressed to yourself (unless it's identity theft ie someone is using your name as well). You will find it very difficult to stop correspondence unless you return the post unopened. Paul H Do this I would do exactly that |

There are over 50 markers than can appear on the DVLA database for a vehicle. Details such as stop and ascertain current keeper can appear if there is a disputed ownership that the police have interest in, etc, etc. ANPR does not just flag up the non insured and out of MOTs...It is another matter as to whether there is a police unit near enough to the ANPR activation to do anything about it!!!

What I was getting at was it's highly to extremely unlikely that the filth would bother to stop anyone who's driving a taxed,moted and insured vehicle just because the registered keepers address and that of the insurance do not match. Think of traders,the car rarely matches the business address on the computer as you get 14days grace to register any car with mdi,and very often that's extremely flexible. |

Alerting the Police should make an ANPR camera flag the car up? Ha! Yeah, sure, right. Good luck with that. I tried twice, the police didn't want to know. I even did the legwork for them and found out when the guy had registered the car, when he moved, etc etc. They still had no interest. Isle of Dogs police station if anyone is wondering. It shouldn't, but it can and does if the person that it's been issued to has other traceable ties to the address (electoral register, CAIS data etc.). It also doesn't matter to debt collectors. If they buy a debt from someone they'll send out bullying and intimidating letters claiming that you owe them money if this idiot defaults on a payment or fine he's run up. Their tactic is to simply find out the names of anyone on an electoral roll at that address in the last 5 years, find their new address and send out a demanding letter hoping someone will pay it and threatening to get nasty if they don't. Explain how it identifies that the driver of a car has no license. If the police pull up a car that's registered to you on anpr and your license is currently suspended for any reason there's a fair chance they'll pull you over to check. |

When it was registered, then you should have gotten some confirmation (the V5 etc). Surely they've intercepted your mail, thats illegal isn't it? It would be if it was registered in your name. But if it is in there name they have every right to collect the letters. Gawd, I read thread about that on PePiPoo (or whatever it's called) earlier in the year but I can't find it now. It was all very technical and legal-ese but I think the guy was having trouble with someone being on the electoral register at his address and telling the DVLA, the bank and so on that he lived there. There was no money owed, no debts so no real crime or fraud as far as the authorities were concerned so nobody would do anything for the poor bloke. He found out by accident, Royal Mail delivered a stack of mail for the bogus resident because the instruction to redirect the mail for that name hadn't been renewed. The law (or policy) had changed and you can now only have it redirected for two years. There are identity checks now to make sure you have the right to have mail delivered there. stealthstylz - try Royal Mail. There might've been a redirect in place that has lapsed because of the two year rule. www2.royalmail.com/customer-service/security/identity-theftThere is a Government identity fraud website but I won't link to it because their security certificate is invalid so some browsers flag it as a dodgy page and highlight the risk of identity fraud. You couldn't make that up. If I was you I would check with the Electoral Commission, too. They don't maintain the local electoral rolls but they're supposed make sure that the process isn't abused. Just state the facts and say you suspect abuse, they're obliged to investigate. As with the Police and the DVLA, if you tell them about it and document it in writing with copies, you have a bit of a safety net if they don't act and it all goes wrong. |
