UKPC Parking Charge

JKayM

Hi all, so just yesterday (Sunday the 28th Dec at 20:12) I get a ticket for parking literally 2 minutes while I pick up some take away from me local Chinese. I parked outside the retaurant as I always done, there no markings on the road apart from a sign indicating the car park is controlled by UKPC a few yards down the road. And it's a free car park!! The charge indicated that I'd not parked correctly within the markings of the bay or space. But there are no markings at all.

I've had a thorough read of the Newbie stickie and have decided to wait for the Notice To Keeper letter and then challenge the charge. Just wondering whether someone has succeeded in overturning the charge before receiving the NTK? Or should I definutely wait?

Any help and input or advice is highly appreciated.

just wait for the NTK, and also assume your subsequent appeal using the template letter will be rejected so make a start on your IAS appeal

JKayM

What's the main reason for waiting on the NTK? Thanks for for your prompt reply BTW.

Redx

all explained in the NEWBIES sticky thread, near the top of the forum , so the "thorough read" wasnt so thorough after all

JKayM

Thanks again Redx, I've read the post again and now understand. I'll be waiting for that NTK then and report back.

Great stuff!

Lots of UKPC cases are cancelled when they see the forum template first appeal:

Loads of UKPC links there, all successful at 'round one'! If not, then you will 100% win at POPLA anyway.

Many Thanks Coupon-mad, it gives me high hopes as this happened to myself and a friend of mine. I will update as soon as.

JKayM

Just an update to say that UKPC have cancelled my ticket and that of my mate on first appeal. Thank you so much for all your help, you're all doing a grand job.

I hope you don't mind me asking JKayM but did you use the full appeal template in the newby sticky or did you remove the "rant"??
