UKCPS and winning in court

daveyjp

"Motorists do have a legal right of appeal"

And the statute covering appeals for PPC tickets is?

Oh I forgot there isn't one.

HO87

They also seem to think that they do not have to disclose who their clients are. Well, not on a website perhaps but in court? As they are unlikely to actually own any of the car parks that they operate in then someone at some point is going to put them to proof that they have been granted full agency rights. Well, I would anyway. That would oblige them to disclose the details of the contract they have - and besides its perfectly possible to make an application to the Land Registry.

Honestly, unshaved chimps could do better.

Somebody on another thread mentioned that they had been informed by the BPA that it is against their code of practice to have to send in any money demanded on the parking ticket if you want to "appeal". And what do we find on UKCPS's website:-

Please enclose your name and address so the appeals department can reply to your letter. Enclosing payment and your parking charge notice will ensure that excess charges will not be added during the appeals procedure. If your appeal is successful a full refund will be given.

So a quick complaint to the BPA?

I've tried complaining to the BPA.

They either make excuses or ignore the complaint if there is no excuse available.:(

UKCPS has won more court cases than I have had hot dinners (and I have had a few of those). All ignore gets you is a big fat CCJ. Barely a week goes by without another legendary UKCPS court win.

We particularly like facing the "Eagles". Never lost against them yet

Oh dear I think you missed your vocation, you should be on the stage that is the best laugh I have had for ages, have you got any more like that in your repertoire.

I assume this is in the role play they do in the office when it gets quiet.

Yet another example of what utter bar-stewards UKCPS are (from CAG) :-

Hi all i was parked in b+q car park in liverpool in disabled bay had blue badge but he still gave ticket he said it was upside down?the car is registerd in my sons name he has recieved 3 letters so far from ukcps i have took the advice of the forum and ignored them so for just got a letter today from a company called court proceedings ltd from london.thay have ask me to settle at £95 pounds in seven days or thay will issue court proceedings with the car being in my sons name i dont want him to get issued with court papers.were do i go from here?should i pay or still ignore them? thanks

The use of the name "Court Proceedings Ltd" seems specifically designed to scare people into paying. Are you reading this Mobilise?

I'd love them to take me to court.

They would be the losers...FACT!

I'm up to the 5th letter from them and its nicely filed away. I did appeal but the didnt reply (How Rude) so if you watching this thread.........

BRING IT ON UKPC....I'm waiting!!!

UKPC or UKCPS? They are different companies.

Same scammer industry though; safe to ignore both.

OOOPS got carried away.

I am now ignoring them. I just get a HUGE laugh every time I receive another letter.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Oh and I've got the message out to family and friends NOT to pay any money to these scammers.
