CMS parking fine

Hi guys.

I have a CMS parking fine of £100 that i was going to pay today. However, when i looked online for carpark management services (CMS uk ltd), i couldn't find it. Do they still exist. I'm a bit worried as i'd rather just get this thing paid. Any advice?

Cheers!!

    firstly, its not a fine and never was and never will be (they cannot FINE you)
    secondly, you should be disputing it, not paying it

    thirdly, not sure if they are still trading, I am sure prankster posted a blog about them

    lastly, you should be reading the READ THIS FIRST sticky thread at the top of this forum, about 3 down , all you need to know is in there
  • Greenman87 - can you tell us exactly the name of the PPC here and if you have it the company registration number - also this didn't happen to be the Robin retail park did it?

    Carpark Management Services (UK) Ltd left the BPA in November and entered voluntary liquidation discussed on these threads:

  • Yes think they are not trading any more

    Also why on earth would you think of paying them anyway, esp as you posted on here a few months ago??

    At least we have stopped you wasting £100.......

  • Thanks for the help.

    The company registration number is 5176903

    Cheers
  • Yep that's the one in liquidation - check out company link info given in my previous post - (extra 0 in front of number is often missed out)

    There have been a couple of reports of parking charges being issued following the liquidation - is this the Robin retail park?

    Obviously ignore the parking charge - they should not be able to get the RK details.

    But you should make a formal complaint to the Insolvency Service as trading whilst in liquidation is illegal.

    You actually were planning to PAY this despite the fact you will hear nothing more about it and the firm is in liquidation and no longer a BPA member? Can I send you an unsolicited invoice too?!

    Wow.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    If CMS are in liquidation i wonder what scum is being lined up to take charge of the robin park sites? Better keep an eye out for ANPR cams being installed! :eek:
    PPCs say its carpark management, BPA say its raising standards..... we all know its just about raking in the revenue. :eek:

    Fil cad -did you see this at the Robin retail park?

    I mentioned this company on one of the other threads given - it is registered as dormant at companies house at last accounting period and it is the same director Philip Kelley - I advised the OP on original thread to still report to insolvency service due to using the same trading name (obvious phoenix fraud here).

    The company website above in your post also does NOT have the BPA logo and are not members (yet) - despite similar names on list - website for that one inactive.
