New Advice For Private Tickets After 1st Oct

AlexisV

The RK is never obliged. He is invited to provide details, if he wishes, after 1st October.

In your case, carry on ignoring. Even if it had occurred after 1 October, ignoring is still the best course of action.

Consider that if the RK wasn't the driver, it is usually a family member. Transferring liability from yourself to another family member is hardly beneficial, so you would be best ignoring.

No law is ever retrospective unless it is expressly retrospective. This one isn't.

Since both your dates are before October 1st the question of what happens if the dates span October 1st seems irrelevant.

Ignore.

50% doesnt seem to be a bad strike rate, so why dont the PPC's take more people to court?

No, no, it was a lower strike rate than 50%. These were only the cases where the PPC actually reckoned they were going to win, maybe thought the person and/or the judge was a pushover. PPCs took a punt by filing a claim in more cases than that but either the cases were thrown out before Court or the PPC folded when they saw the person had a decent defence (a la pepipoo, for example).

There was another one like that reported on here today about UKCPS - the judge threw the case out before it even got to a hearing. Small Claims are still very uncommon - even big players like Euro Car Parks never try - but I can remember a dozen or more 'fizzled-out Small claim attempts' reported on pepipoo alone in the last few months. Alexis probably knows more specific numbers.

Still as rare as hen's teeth compared the ridiculous number of fake PCNs issued each year. And there will be more now that clamping has ended and new companies have clearly jumped on the bandwagon.

You only have to look at the ever-increasing list of AOS members listed on the BPA site to see new ones each week. Then there are all the non-AOS memebers who just chance their arm with fake PCNs and no letters...or letters because they are planning on getting the registered keeper's data via another company - which we will report to the ICO and DVLA every single time as a DPA breach.

I got issued a ticket in Asda today.
I'm ignoring it and all other correspondence.

You COULD try appealing it, if you're game to try out the new POPLA appeals process. Let us know if you want to give that a go. It may end up costing the PPC a few quid for little return (and by 'little' I clearly mean 'no'!)

I could but it's easier for me to ignore it. Not going to waste my time appealing against something that isn't legally enforceable

Incidentally, I love the creative use of the POPLA appeal grounds to get the contractual issues onto the table.

Just found this on "Companies in the UK" website:-

Forgive me if I am asking a question that has already been asked, and replied to. My head is spinning from all the posts I have read

My wife received a Parking Eye Parking charge notice stating that an alleged parking infringement occurred on 12th September 2012. Thus far we have ignored all letters from Parking Eye. We wonder if the new ruling (1st October) whereby the Registered keeper (my wife) becomes liable instead of the driver would apply to us. Where do we stand?

Thanks

Wherever you like.
Just ignore them, file any paperwork.
Its not a fine just an unrequested invoice.
New legislation is not retrospective so has no effect on old claims.
