Fresh help with POPLA please?

[FONT=&quot]Hi everyone, This forum helped me back in July last year to successfully appeal a parking charge from UKPC and we are now eternally in your debt.

Well done! I've read your post in the POPLA Decisions thread. It is clear that POPLA believe UKPC has no contract to operate; they should therefore have no access to RK details from the DVLA for that site, and they have not complied with the BPA Code of Practice.

Please do a bit more to help the cause:

1. Complain to the DVLA and ask them to stop providing keeper details to UKPC for that particular site in view of the POPLA statement.

2. Ask the BPA to confirm they will be issuing sanction points to UKPC in view of the POPLA statement.

Please let us know what the outcomes of your complaints are. Update this thread with the details when received.

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. .

I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.
