Here we go again.... A friend popped over to Eurocarparts in Coventry on a Sunday morning. It gets very busy and the car park was full. Being a Sunday the unit next door (QED) was closed with the shutters down so like any normal, right-minded member of the public who has ever frequented Industrial Estates in the UK for the…

Good evening. I'm the keeper of a vehicle that Times Parking are claiming visited the drop off zone at Gatwick for about five minutes. I have appealed as keeper, citing the usual information. Including the fact that POFA doesn't apply in this case, and even if it did they are significantly out of the 14 days window. In…

Hi all, I hope I am not going to annoy anyone by starting a thread on this as I can see it has been covered a million times before! I have read the sticky over and over and in all honesty I have confused myself with what I actually need to do! The story - Back in June after the car that we were travelling in to the airport…

Hi, The car was parked in a retail car park in London. UKPC claim that the car wasn't parked in the bay. The photos don't show any bay line being crossed but UKPC claim that the vehicle blocked such lines, so the photos don't show it. In the POPLA appeal, UKPC uploaded random photos of some other signs and also map of…

Hi, Every weekday morning my partner drops our child off at the bus stop, parking in Waitrose. Then pops in Waitrose for a small shop and then returns later to pick him and do more shopping. The system is picking him entering at 4.45pm and then suggesting he is leaving the next day. This so far has reached £500, all 5…

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…

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.
