Yep Emanresu is the man to know about this location.

Cool, thanks guys. I emailed and posted it today!

They emailed back very quickly, saying they had no record of my initial appeal, so I sent a copy via email and in the post too - haven't heard back since.

Is the fact that I got the ticket on September 18th but only received my first formal demand on October 21st useful at all?

not if it was a windscreen ticket, as you will know from reading the newbies thread, the postal NTK has to arrive between day 29 and day 56 after any windscreen ticket

I told the debt collectors to stuff off in quite a humorous fashion (couldn't help myself). Their response is as follows.

Any thoughts/comments?

About your parking charge

Thank you for your communication regarding the above Parking Charge Notice (PCN).

As per the British Parking Association’s (BPA) Code of Practice, Point 22.7, the time to challenge the charge has now expired and therefore access to the Independent Appeals Service (if applicable) is no longer available.

However, in order to resolve this matter, I will offer the following comments as to why this PCN was correctly issued and is still payable.

My findings

The site in question is subject to terms and conditions, which are stated on signs throughout the area. Those signs state that drivers must clearly display a valid ticket for the site. They also warn that failure to do so may result in the issue of a PCN.

On the date in question the vehicle was parked on the site but no valid ticket was clearly displayed. This means that the terms and conditions were breached and a PCN was correctly and legitimately issued.

What you need to do now

Please ensure that £149.00 is paid by DATE XXX. Payment can be made online or by phone. Go to https://www.debtrecoveryplus.co.uk/pay or phone 0844 561 0965. You can find full details of how to pay on the reverse of the letter(s) sent.

What will happen if you do not pay what you owe

If the amount is not paid by the date shown above, we will recommend to our client that court action be taken by them to recover the outstanding balance.

If you do not intend to pay by the deadline, I draw your attention to the following important court ‘test’ case where judgment was entered for a parking company when the charge was disputed on multiple grounds. The senior judge found completely in the parking company’s favour: ParkingEye Ltd v Beavis & Wardley [2014].

A transcript of the case can be found at https://www.debtrecoveryplus.co.uk/debtor/judge.php.

What if you do not agree

Although any correspondence that does not provide further evidence will be noted and retained, I cannot guarantee that we will reply to it.

Dear DRP idiot,
#1 The Beavis case is set for appeal in the next few weeks. I know that, you know that, so why are you trying to hoodwink people into thinking this has any relevance?

#2 As a debt collector, you have no powers whatsoever, so I refer you to Arkell vs Pressdram.
