UKPC - Balliffs?
hi all, I recently received a parking ticket from a horrible little man who could barely communicate properly with me, who was working for the UKPC. The ticket stated ‘Owner left site’ so I challenged it with UKPC by email. They said that I left the site and they had ‘no record’ of me using the facilities, but I did. Four…

Parking Ticket Query
My daughter received a Notice to Owner on the 10th July stating she has to pay £50 for a parking ticket issued on the 28th May. She has never had a ticket: as this was the first she knew about the ticket at all, so could not have appealed within the time-frame or to be able to pay at the lower rate. I thought that a letter…

Parking Ticket
Two weeks ago I parked in a Parking Meter bay and put a £1 coin and two 10p pieces into the machine for one hour's parking (the maximum time allowed). When the ticket was delivered, I noticed it had only registered 20p, therefore it was only valid for 10 minutes. I tried to ring the phone number on the meter for the…

Fine at Morrisons
I parked my husband's car and when I returned I had a ticket for not parking correctly within the bay. I may have been slightly over the line but it was not a bay which caused an obstacle to any other motorist's parking. The ticket said the car had been seen at 11.30am and the fine attached at 12.30. But I was at my house…

pcn for overstaying ... but valid reason under police order
Hi, I attended a sentencing court hearing for a teenage family member who was killed in a car crash some months ago. I paid for 2 hours parking as that would have been enough.

Disabled Motoring UK foot in mouth
"Top Gear presenters drive into more trouble... this time for using disabled parking bays" Read more except... Read the comments as well. Not many people agree with Jim (Helen Dolphin must be on her hols - no doubt paid for by the grannies of the country whose blue badges have fallen off the dashboard)
