So not only the parking companies are claiming that they can fine you, and parking on private land could be an offence, but their trade body claims this as well!

If I received a parking fine 35 days after the offence, am I liable to pay the fine?

And no it's not about council car parking
If you have received a parking charge in 35 days, then it is issued outside of the terms of the Protection of Freedoms Act (PoFA). However it does not necessarily make the ticket invalid. Parking charges are primarily issued under the law of contract, or trespass, depending on the terms and conditions that prevail at the site. Schedule 4 of PoFA was designed by Government to enable the operator to be able to pursue the keeper of the vehicle if no serviceable name and address for the driver has been presented.

If the charge has not been delivered within the specified timescale, PoFA does not apply, but the terms and conditions within the car park are still valid.
When posting a parking issue on MSE do not reveal any information that may enable PPCs to identify you. They DO monitor the forum.
We don't need the following to help you.
Name, Address, PCN Number, Exact Date Of Incident, Date On Invoice, Reg Number, Vehicle Picture, The Time You Entered & Left Car Park, Or The Amount of Time You Overstayed.

    So that's 10 for the ppc and a zero for the RK. It seems that if the ppc does not want to spend the £27 then that's ok, just carry on and keep chasing the RK.
    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.
