Parking tickets, fines & parking

Hi all, I received a CCJ to an old address from G24 ltd regarding a parking event in May 2025. I was able to collect my old mail from my previous address included the POC and all threatenings mails from DCBL Baliffs. After reading the NEWBIES posts and related subthreads, I prepared a letter for DCBL to set aside the court…

Hello all I just wanted to check that the following advice is still valid (as at June 2026) as there does not seem to be any recent threads. NoPC left on car parked at a TfL tube carpark Ignore it. Wait to receive Notice to Keeper (NTK). If an NTK is received, appeal using the language below. SABA will refuse the appeal…

I thought I’d share a successful outcome in case it helps anyone facing a similar parking charge at a Forestry England site. Background I received a £50 Parking Charge Notice (£25 discounted) from CP Plus, trading as GroupNexus, following a visit to Cardinham Woods in Cornwall. The parking tariff had not been paid because…

Hello everyone. My father recently got a parking fine for entering an ASDA from Horizon parking at [20:20] on [29/09/2026] and leaving at [14:54] on [30/09/2026], so he stayed for 18 hours according to them. However, he didn't stay for 18 hours and I have ring video footage of his van at home with the license plate visible…

I got this fine twice. I went into the Burger King/Cafe Nero parking area. I parked up for 5 mins but then I had to make a pickup from the airport so I had to leave. After I did the pickup I entered not to park but to go through the drive through The Burger King got my order wrong and so I had to drive in again 5 mins…

Hello, long time no post, but I continue to follow the forum. A friend has received a PCN from Euro Parking Services. He stopped on a residential service road, double yellow lines, for the purposes of loading/unloading. The PCN claims a period of parking of around 9 minutes. Of the eleven evidence images, only four show…

Hi I received an LBC from CST after multiple warning letters etc. Following advice on the newbies page I submitted a SAR to the parking co and advised CST that I'd done so and that I am seeking debt advice. Do I wait for them to contact me again or do I need to get back to them before the 30 days (since the SAR request)…

I hope everyone is well, unfortunately I have found myself in the situation with another PCN again. This is for overstaying in a McDonald's car park. I contacted McDonald's and they said they don't have the authority to cancel and I have to go through the parkeing operator I missed the deadline to make an appeal to 'Civil…

I took my two year old child to the cinema and parked at Rock Street. I took a photo of the pay by phone code intending to pay for parking while we rushed to the cinema. Unfortunately the app was not loading properly on my phone and with the distraction of getting a young child settled I did not complete the payment at…

Hi, I am a returning to this board after a long hiatus - I previously (2014) received excellent advice from the regulars on here to successfully appeal a PCN on the grounds of GPEOL (amongst other things), so thanks again for that. Fast forward to 2026 and another member of the family has recently received a PCN for the…

Hi. Would anyone know if the defence for being parked in a Car Club Bay would be any different than a private car park? I searched the address and it looks like it is run by Enterprise. My partner is the RK but this was his daughter's car, and he was about 100 miles away on the date of the alleged contravention - we are…

Firstly, thanks in advance for any help provided! I had originally posted this on FTLA, but I understand now that the MSE forum may be better suited for this. I have read the newbies forum, but a mistake was made earlier, and now there's worry that it's messed up any hope for the PCN being cancelled. It was advised that…

Friend parked their car in a Uni carpark at the weekend for kids football. Been parking here for couple of years and no issue. They got a letter from National Parking Control with photos showing they weren't parked in a bay. The car park is always rammed with double parking, parking on the grass verge etc. I have tried to…

Hi This is my first time posting on any forum but I really need advice on this please it is a bit long winded but I hope it makes sense and someone can help. We had previously received a letter from DCBL asking for £155 payment for parking more than 10 mins in a Sainsbury's car park there was a photo and as we hadn't yet…

Hi There I am only at Stage 2 of the First Eight stages - Ignoring them. But I wanted to start a specific thread for possible assistance with witness statement and in case they don't discontinue. I hope that is ok. So: 'Incident' occurred August 2025. Parking Charge Notices came through the post at some point thereafter…

Hi everyoneI am after some advice relating to a PCN I received whilst charging my company car (not owned by myself), at an InstaVolt charging station situated in the car park of the Gissons Hotel, Exeter. I was on-site for 34 minutes. I received a letter from ParkingEye, (not sure how they got my address and contact…

Dear Team of Experts, hope you can help me with this second claim put against me by G24 Ltd. I’ve already posted a thread on this forum regarding a CCJ issued by the same parking company to my old address and hopefully I’ll get this sorted at my local court at the end of this month. Premise, at the time of the alleged…

I made an FOIA request to the DVLA asking for any DPIAs associated with their KADOE contract with three parking management companies. Their response was to send a redacted DPIA from when they migrated their service to the new KADOE API (Application Programming Interface) in 2022/3. It is an interesting read (100 plus…

First, apologies for asking something that I appreciate has probably been answered elsewhere. I've read the Newbie thread but found it a bit overwhelming and the bother of this is making it hard for me to consider the matter clearly. I realise that's my problem, and not the problem of the kind person who took the time to…
