  • Hi all,
    I'm just going through some paperwork.
    UKCPS didn't ever get back to me with the POPLA code, so thank you very much for that excellent advice!

    Just be warned, just because they didn't get back to you, doesn't mean they wont. they have a full 6 years to chase a pcn. Keep all the paperwork just in case!

    Ah now that would be a difficult one to chase. Apologies and condolences.

    Mind in the mysterious world of the PPC there is nothing to say that even such a clear situation as this would stop them!

    Sorry to hear that, my condolences to you.

    I hope this situation is over for you now, but be prepared for them contacting you asking for proof of that. And it has been reported that a certain PPC actually threatened to sue the estate recently of someone passed away.
    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.

  • Is it wrong that a little teeny part of me wants them to try and sue the estate of a deceased man for parking in a disabled spot when he was disabled?
    Although I'm pretty sure the bad press wouldn't put them off! *sigh*

    Thank you for your condolences. I'll keep the paperwork. I have an official copy of his death certificate (for other admin I've been helping my grandma with) so that's not a problem should they ever get back to us.

    I nearly posted that a bit of me wanted them to try and do something, but withheld from saying that as I did not want to upset you at a difficult time for you.

    So No it is not wrong as they caused your grandfather hassle which he did not need and it would be good to thoroughly embarrass them in public. Think what the Daily Mail would make of it if it happened! What a headline it could produce.

    If they do want a copy of the d/c make them pay for it.
