Hi all, I’m really hoping someone can help because I’m getting quite worried about a court claim I’ve received from Moorside Legal.

Hi guys as you’ve requested I am creating this new threads for these two new PCN I have received from UK Car Park Management parking at my residential estate, holding a valid parking permit and displaying a blue badge on the screen as I was parked on a double yellow line due to all parking bays being occupied by other…

Hi everyone I'm coming up to the final stages of a MCOL case with NCP/Moorside. Mediation shortly which will likely lead to a hearing later on, with Moorside potentially pulling out, not turning up, or at most simply losing the case (i hope. my chances look pretty decent) What i'm wondering is, has anybody managed to get a…

Hi, looking for some advice on whether this should be paid or not. I borrowed my wife's car, and entered my vehicle registration to validate the parking rather than hers by mistake. It was a free car park and reg was only needed to validate. My wife appealed the fine with the IAS, stating she was not driving the car, and…

Long time since I’ve been active on here. As the title suggests I’ve received a PCN from these scammers (Parkmaven), nearly 6 months ago I purchased in advance parking for my work vehicle at one of their locations. I actually used the location a couple of times after as well and got another PCN from them. Upon getting the…

Hi all, last year I posted about receiving debt repayment letters around June 2025 demanding payment for a sum of £170 after I dropped someone at the airport a few weeks prior.

Hello, Around 2 months ago I received a letter in the post from DCBL with a charge of £155 for overstaying at a Euro Car Parks in Sainsbury’s dated in June 2024.

Hi everyone, Looking for a bit of advice! In February we attempted to park at a space we'd found in Glasgow which advertised as £11 for 24h. When we arrived at the site at 7pm we attempted to pay for the 24h parking at the machine but it would only allow us to pay until 11.59pm. The parking sign was unlit, and as it was…
