PCN Debt Recovery and Prosecution Service

Jd1411

Just received a Parking Charge Notice from London & SE Railway trading as Debt Recovery & Prosecution Services stating that I was issued a Parking Charge on 20/10/14.

This is the first communication I have had with them since 20/10/14 (ticket on the windscreen was from Meteor)

I was waiting for the NTK so that I could appeal as I have done before...

This letter states that it is too late to appeal, I owe £90 which will increase to £165 within 14 days and failure to pay either of those will result in a Magistrates Court Summons under Railway Byelaws.

Shall I send the template from the sticky thread or is this different?

I successfully appealed against Highview using that template, but this letter seems a little different.

Advice would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

Lots of info here and on Pepipoo about that particular railway company's rather dodgy dealings and deliberate confusion between a penalty under Byelaws and private parking charges. On Pepipoo there's a robust response by Gan forcing them to say who is responsible for this. It makes a difference as liability is different between penalty and private charge. Forcing their hand is a way of uncovering their deliberate deceit.
