Parking tickets, fines & parking

Good day, Thank you in advance to everyone. My sister has received a Letter of Claim from DCB for Smart Parking. There is a mention of mediation, and at the request of the vehicle holder, have the rules changed? Do we need to use the reply link in their letter or wait for another letter? This seems slightly different to a…

Just as I am dealing with my own predatory PCN my Dad sends me a picture of a claim form from Oct 2024. He has no recollection of the event and can't remember receiving any NTKs etc (he may have at the time then threw them away, certainly hasn't received anything relating to this in the last few months). Issue Date: 03…

Hello I received an NTK from Britannia parking today, 30th Deptember. It is dated 17th September and refers to a contravention on 1st August. Is this past it’s time limit and is this good enough grounds for appeal? No ticket or notice was given on the day Thanks.

Hi, If someone can read my defence letter against a parking company fine, which has been escalated to small claims court, specifically with 'Napier Parking' company. The claim is vague and states 'no valid payment made' however I have bank statement evidence to prove otherwise. If there is any adjustments that is needed,…

As i intend to defend it, filed AOS on 5 September and somehow negleted to file the defence, which was due 21 September. Received a letter for BW Legal today, dated 23 September, advising they have not yet applied for a…

Hi all, I'm posting on behalf of my aunt, who's panicking. She's had a county court claim from ParkingEye (DCB Legal) for a parking charge from 11/2023, and it arrived late. The issue date is 11 Sep 2026, but a neighbour only posted it through the door on Friday. I've read the NEWBIES thread. She tried to file the…

Hi there, Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I have received a court claim through the post sent to an old address in regards to a parking charge issued back in 2022. The first I heard about it was from a DCB letter sent over a year ago to my old address so no chance to appeal. I had arrived late with my ex boyfriend…

The PCN said id overstayed according to their ANPR. i sent them a copy of my ticket showing their ANPR said i left at 16.03, but my ticket was till 16:04. They then pointed out my ticket was…

Hi all, looking for advice on two ParkingEye PCNs at Oldham Leisure Centre, which is council-owned. I’m a regular member for a number of months. I most walk to it but occasionally also drive. Members can park free, but have to enter their vehicle registration into a terminal on each visit. # First incident — 14 September…

Ok with this one, I did take the fuel. I realised 2 days later I'd driven off without paying, and returned to make payment. The manager refused and said he has just reported it, so they can't accept payment. Had a few letters, this being the latest: (Image removed by Forum Team) Mitigation of loss: I returned of my own…

Hi all, Euro Car Parks issued a PCN at Church Street - Maidstone, 3 Church Street, Maidstone, Kent, ME14 1DS. I'm trying to get: 1) Images of the signage here. Google Maps Street View is from 2023 so can't rely on that, it is also too blurry to get any text from the signs. If anyone has had to take photos here in recent…

I received a PCN from UK Car Park Management and was wondering if it’s worth appealing even if the driver just forgot to pay on the day? I previously successfully appealed a PCN from APCOA on the grounds of the NTK being non POFA compliant but I think the one I’ve just received is. The PCN has the car entering and exiting…

If it hadn't been for another poster posting about this very same car park back in April: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6665675/misleading-parking-eye-signs-leading-to-a-pcn I wouldn't have come across this brilliant resource. So here I am wanting to 'pay it forward'. There have been literally dozens…
