From the parking prankster site. You might have the register address rather than the trading address. About time all trading addresses were found and published along with normal rate telephone numbers.

Which is what the new Consumer Contracts Information & Cancellation Regs I keep banging on about, require of all consumer contracts made after 13th June! As well as the geographical address of the client as well (for complaints) when a trader is an agent!

On your lease/rental agreement you said this

- No mention of space but we are allowed to use the space.

- No mention of space but we are allowed to use the space.

if you are renting i would suggest that you get in touch with your landlord to see exactly where you stand with regards to a parking space

Youve also said this

No they don't provide a good service

Ok, this opens the door for a few fun and games, should you wish and you can also help the attendant out

The attendants also admitted that there is pressure on them to visit the site regularly and issue a ticket.

but before all that it would be prudent to see exactly where you stand with your parking space and your landlord ( if renting)
as a bonus the attendant who is pressured to issue tickets will be exceptionally busy for a while

Asuming that you have a parking space and this is backed up by your landlord/rental agreement, likewise the same for all others using the parking area.
Tell the management company that you dont agree to the permit scheme and you are withdrawing from displaying a permit
Park in your space without the permit as you advised the management company
Collect ticket, and challenge it, then take it to popla if the parking company still insists that they have a right to issue tickets in a space to which you have a right to park in. Win the Popla challenge
repeat this each day/night and spread the word with your neighbours.
As a bonus the poor parking company foot soldier will be less pressured as He/She will be issuing plenty of tickets, and you may also be helping a few council workers in London who run the POPLA scheme

As reply to inputs form Half_way.

Your inputs does help understand the issue a bit further.
The parking space is Privately owned. In this case by my landlord. I( or my Landlord) can authorise, or not, the UKPC to monitor ( run permit scheme ) on the private parking space.

This leaves UKPC to be able to monitor only the space outside the parking bays as per defined in the contract ( b/w the management company of our flats & UKPC ). The contract should define what areas UKPC is allowed to monitor. The space where my car is parked might not be part of the contract. ( Worth adding this information in POPLA appeal ? That it is not clear what parts of the parking they manage. )

Google 'Parking Prankster' :cool:

It just shows that PPCs can't manage parking properly if someone was parked in your space without permission thereby displacing you.

Tell the management company that, if they insist on inflicting PPC mis-management on you all, they need to have operating procedures that can be invoked in similar circumstances and that, in the absence, they are being held responsible for any charges being laid at your door.

It could be that the op has the right to use a parking space, but the parking spaces may not be specifically designated to given properties.

I am entitled to park in a space as it states this in my lease. However, the spaces are not designated, so I can park anywhere.

The reason for not parking in bays is my own parking as taken up by someone else so I had no other option.

Let me see if I have got this right, someone parked in your space, so you were forced to park in someone else's space. Where did they park.

It is people like your good self who encourage managing agents to employ parking scum.
