Parking tickets, fines & parking

Hello! I am new to this forum and have read other threads left about disputing a NTK letter and I did find a thread (few years old), that is related to this same car park that another person got a fine from but their letter was a Non POFA compliant looking at the images on the link posted (which I don't think I can post…

Hi. With the help of the forum, I have recently successfully contested (well, they gave up in the end) a court claim for a major keying error charge. I'm now back again for more sage advice! I have now received a letter from HM Courts saying that DCB Legal on behalf of ECP is making a claim against me for refusing to pay a…

Another Leter of Claim received! (Previous thread was for another PCN on May 2025 with DCB which was dissolved). This is such a waste of time! This one is 90 free minutes over stay in Bridge Green, Prestbury 16th Feb 2024. I did not get any PCN or notices, until Debt collection letters cam through (ignored) then LOC 21st…

Hi. Hopefully, I am coming to the end of this process myself with DCB Legal (MET Parking) but have a query related to the same car park and the process that DCB Legal are required to follow. My son in-law also parked at Southgate Park, Stansted in 2024. The same process happened to a point but then correspondance stopped.…

So on June 2nd I paid to park for one hour from 7:43 to 8:43. A parking warden decided to issue a ticket at 8:53 (on the Payment portal the warden was also observing several minutes beforehand), this I understand was still within the grace period. The parking ticket clearly states in Bold 'Parked after the expiry of paid…

First post so apologise in advance if this has been answered numerous times! I have read all the threads etc with regards to these fines. I have just received the avove from DCB Legal representing Parkmaven Ltd with regards to 3 parking fines for being over the 2 hour stay. All 3 fines combined would be less than an hour…

Hi, I recently received this letter of claim from DCB legal. I have read the newbies thread and have found this template to send: “Dear Sirs, Your ref: [insert reference number] Proposed legal proceedings Claimant: [insert name of parking company] I refer to your letter of claim. I confirm that my address for service for…

Hi All, I’ve been issued a CCJ for my case despite me sending the claim form via email twice which was agreed on the form itself. In a previous case - I sent it the same way with no issues. I’m reading that I need to pay £325 for a N244 form which is more than the fine. I’m not sure why I should pay that much when I follow…

I have received the various bits of correspondence over the last few months from, DCB and now DCB legal regarding 2 parking fines from over 2 years ago, which I never received from the original parking firm because they went to my old address after I had moved. I have refused to pay the fines because I totally dispute…

Hi all, Ive really treid to look into this myself but I'm just so confused and overwhelmed. My mum received a fine from Bank Park Management for not paying in a P&D car park. She is elderly and just didnt realise it was one you have to pay for. Ive been to her house a few days ago and found tons of letters that she never…

Alleging overstay. Landowner won't do anything to help - haven't officially complained but made a few shirty phonecalls & spoke to a manager. workflow dynamics Thoughts?

Hi All I've got a couple of days left to file my POPLA against UKPC for a PCN my dad received for parking in a 'registered users only' car park. He last used it in 2023 prior to UKPC taking over so was unaware of the restrictions. My draft POPLA is below- I'd welcome any comments or recommendations. I haven't mentioned it…

Just received a letter in the post about a notice of debt recovery from a parking charge in 2023! It says it cannot be appealed and ‘must’ be paid within 14 days.. do I wait for another letter to come through? Thanks!

Hello all Thanks to the advice on the forum I made a successful POPLA appeal against a Smart Parking NTK in 2021. Unfortunately friends who were with us had moved house and missed the deadline for the appeal. They notified Smart Parking of the change of address. This arrived the other day. The MCOL website would not…

Hi All, I'm a newbie here. Living in South West London. Thanks for having me. I've recently had Parking Charge Notice from a pribate company called Bank Park, who operate in this area. I was wondering if anyone had any advice on how best to deal with. Apparently I parked my car , just outside the lines of a parking space…

Have read the newbies thread and wanted to check I'm doing the right thing. I had to tell Napier I was the driver as my husband was being chased as Keeper and didn't like it. Situation is this: we pulled into the car park on Church Hill in Northfield, which I thought was still council-owned and used to be free after 6 pm.…

Hello, I am writing this on behalf of someone else. The individual in question used the Dartford crossing in February of this year and wasn't aware of the requirement to pay. Yesterday, they had a visit from an enforcement officer demanding payment. Some context - both they and their daughter are disabled, suffering from…

Hi All, concerned newbie here desperately looking for advice on how to move forwards with County Court Claim from Civil Enforcement Ltd. Incident occurred last year on January 30th at the Bellevue car park (237-259 Greenwich High rd, SE10 8NB) in front of ALDI and many other small shops. CEL refused my challenge on grounds…

Hello, I received a Notice from Alliance Parking for 10 mins staying on the Pottery street Swansea without any marks, not on the parking bays. I was trying to find a relative business to appeal, but unsuccessful. Only one mark I found on the street, the photo attached above. It mentioned that road is Private, but no names…

ECP and DCB Legal, received the notice a week before they had to pay the court fee. Thank you newbies thread! @Umkomaas
