    .............The Uni in this case is a private company, they would have to go through someone who is an AOS member to get the address of RK of the vehicle from the DVLA, that very act is actually illegal as it breaks the DPA.

    Oh, while you're here, no. I can do it.
    Park on my land, one photo, your details are mine.
    Check your facts before you post.
    (Google it , as they say, I'm out)

    Well
    as you say

    !!!!!! would the op be doing while you're challenging it?
    Going on jobseekers?
    Pick your own battles, don't live someone else's life.

    Don't troll someone else, and don't tell them it's a PPC when it isn't, and don't tell them they have to get the address from the dvla when the op has already declared they own the vehicle when they signed the contract.

    You really need to know some basic facts before you start to give really. really, bad advice.

    Enough though, you can carry on, the op has already enough good advice to take it forward.

    They will give your posts the respect due.

    Now this is my final response to you, as this is an advice forum, and you offer none as per usual !

    Where did I say it was a PPC? The fact that a Uni is acting like one doesn't make them one ! How do you know the vehicle registration number is on the permit? The person could change their car a number of times and just place the permit in another car!

    The challenge would come from whoever it effects, so don't get pedantic on this, and what the hell you talking about about job seekers allowance?

    I know enough facts to offer advice, its a shame you do not, you just troll this forum like the others on here and offer nothing constructive. This forum is for people to ask questions and get reasoned answers, not for you to argue and confuse people on here, this forum is not about you!

    Now reply if you wish, I will not respond further to your trolling on here
    Excel Parking, MET Parking, Combined Parking Solutions, VP Parking Solutions, ANPR PC Ltd, & Roxburghe Debt Collectors. What do they all have in common?
    They are all or have been suspended from accessing the DVLA database for gross misconduct!
    Do you really need to ask what kind of people run parking companies?

    Good, as you clearly have no idea what you are posting about.
    Just don't set up others to take the fall for you.

    A quick update -- I've heard nothing official, but I was told today that something similar happened to a colleague. He'd parked and intended to pay when he got to the office, but ended up speaking to someone then went into a meeting. He paid after leaving the meeting, but had already been ticketed.

    The important point was that the ticket was rescinded. So there is hope that I'll not have to press the matter!

    Could you please direct me to ANY post on this forum where you've given out useful and accurate advice ? I can't for the life of me find any.
    All aboard the Gus Bus !

    I replied to the email asking if I could have the regulations clarified, re: time windows for paying. I won't quote the response verbatim (privacy disclaimers etc.), but the gist is that there's presumed guilt.

    So let's say I park at 9am. It takes me 10 minutes to walk to my office, and by the time I get settled, logged on etc. it takes another 5 minutes to pay. If in those 15 minutes, a traffic warden has patrolled the car park I'm in, then he'll have ticketed me, because the system won't be showing me as having paid. I then have to go to the bother of requesting it be rescinded.

    There was no specific answer to my question of whether or not there is an explicit time window. It may seem irrelevant, given the presumed guilt, but on the other hand it could be important when trying to appeal: to use the extreme case again, if no window exists, then I should be allowed to pay when I leave, not when I arrive. But paying when I leave would look like I'm just trying to avoid the fine.

    I'm tempted to send an email back, solely to make that point, but on the other hand it's probably best just to drop it.
