Parking tickets, fines & parking

[Image removed by Forum Team] My wife got this NTK yesterday. To cut a long story short, we parked in a residents parking bay because we were due to stay at her Airbnb (through booking.com) Unbeknown to us, she had cancelled it without informing us.

Hi, I have a LoC from BW legal for parking in a residential area, there are areas you can and cant park on the street/side roads even before and after signage - very confusing. Anyway the place I parked there was a sign at shin-level (not visible from my line of sight driving in). I have until today to respod to BW legal -…

I received a parking fine from NPC when parking in the underground car park of the building where my friend lives. I disputed the fine on the basis there was no signs explaining I should not park without a permit, my friend was also not aware of the rules and he had encouraged me to park there. I went back and took…

Hi all, I recently applied for a rented property and was told during referencing that I'd failed due to a CCJ I had no knowledge of. Checking my Experian report, I found a County Court Judgment registered against me on 27 July 2026, but at my old address, I only discovered it on 4 September. I called the County Court…

I'm now scheduled with a hearing date in September regarding a parking charge from 2024 from Euro Car Parks. Basically, two car parks with the same name next to one another and I used an app to pay for the wrong one without realising. Appealed it back in 2024 when I first got the charge, offered to pay for the correct car…

Hi all, My flat (which I purchased several years ago) has designated parking spaced for each flat in the building. On my lease, it clearly states the parking bay assigned to me as part of the purchase. The parking entrance originally had a barrier which was promptly broken. After months of no action, the building…

Hi all. I've had a look and I can't find another thread that covers the parking charge notice that I've received. We parked in a private car park with pay on entrance ANPR (Parking Eye) and attempted to buy a ticket from the 1 machine, but it wouldn't work. (I have a video). I then spent ages downloading the app to pay as…

Good morning, Should I submit the witness statement before or after the mediation appointment? many thanks

Hi all, thank you in advance for any and all advice. I admit I am terrified and struggling to wrap my head around everything. I received the following claim form on Friday, 02/05/2025.

Hello, I just want to make sure that I'm proceeding correctly as there have been a few updates to the defense template. I'm hoping someone can confirm that it is appropriate to use the linked part 3 wording from minimonsta for my case: 3. With regards to the POC in question, two recent persuasive appeal judgments in Civil…

Hi All, I'm looking for some advice please. I've been issued with a claim for an unpaid parking charge. The claimant is Parking Eye and their legal representative is DCB Legal. TBH, I don't really understand why they are still pursuing this as it relates to an incident from 21/4/2023. The vehicle to which the PCN relates…

Hiya, I hope you can help. I paid £18.00 for a few hours parking in Leeds, last August. I've since had several letters saying that I owe money but I don't understand as I'd paid an extortionate parking fee already. They have now sent me (actually my son who has SEN and doesn't drive as this is a mobility car and several…

Hi, Hope you are all well. This is not the typical dammit I’ve got a ticket what do I do post, hence a new thread. This is a question whether these companies – District Enforcement Limited (being enforced by Gladstones) in this case - are doctoring CCTV pictures? Is there any history/possibility of this? In brief the…
