Hi
Is it safe to access UKPC photos on the website before making an appeal? Would they have track of this information?

Hi I got a parking notice from Britannia 2 years + ago they sent me a parking charge . I explained I was eating at the restaurant , Frankie & Bennys who said they would pay my parking as I was eating there they replied that this was not the case and I needed to pay £100 unfortunately the restaurant has closed and no one can confirm this was said over the phone . I replied that In any case I was parked in a disabled spot as I am a blue card holder and that nowhere else in Chelmsford do I need to pay for parking in a marked disabled place . Any way they sent my ticket of to some debt collectors, BW Legal, who proceeded to harass me with claims of , now £160, I informed them of my position and said I would happily see them in court . Over the next 18 months they continued to send me stuff demanding that I tell them my financial position and every time I emailed them back that if they wanted to get the money they would need to take me to court and prove their losses . I arrived home fro a holiday in Canada on the 13th of May to find a letter n my doorstep telling me that I had a CCJ against me taken out in a court in Northampton on the 12 th. I had had no previous warning that they were even going to court . The cost was now £248.90. Being the person I am I immediately contacted the court to have the decision set aside at a cost of £255 . I am awaiting my new court date in Chelmsford where I live and where the parking took place.
During this whole time the BW Legal bullies have been threatening me with a loss of my good credit reference , mine was almost perfect . and they have now ., even when I have paid to set aside the verdict screwed my almost perfect credit score to such an extent that one of my credit cards has reduced my monthly maximum , this on a card I have held for years and pay of every month in full and always have, they were nice enough to tell me of the cut whilst I was in Slovakia on , yea another, holiday, luckily I have another card , Barclaycard Platinum, thanks for the advice Martin,that I use for travel .
Mostly my defense relies on the wording of the parking notice that says anyone parking in the disabled space without displaying a blue badge will be fined . I take that to mean that blue badge holders will not be fined so they are free to park free of charge .
so my question is what do you think and have I any other ways in which to fight them.

Hello,
it is my first time posting, hopefully i'm in the right section.
i received a notice about a parking in private land. i may have parked there, but can i decline to pay on the ground the offence been committed was back i end April 2019.
my understanding there is a set limit when a notice can be served to the keeper of the car ? not sure how long though, and if this is right will this be sufficient ground to appeal this pcn charge
your help will be much appreciated.

Please read the post immediately above your own. It tells you what you need to know.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

Hi,
I have appealed my parking fine using the letter template stating that I will not be disclosing the driver of the vehicle. The company have now replied asking me to name the driver. Do I have to do this?
In the letter template it states that I will not be responding to anything unless my questions have been answered but they have not answered any of the questions I have asked.
What should I do?
Kind regards
Clare0
