Ukpc - Use of own space for guests - POPLA code given

ManxRed

The thing that's usually 'wrong' with these set ups, in plenty of other similar threads, is that the Management Co. are on a backhander. Hence their reluctance to protect the residents. 'I'm afraid you need to take this up with the parking company, it's nothing to do with us'.

They need to Google 'Law of Agency'.

Why not report the PPC to the DVLA for obtaining RK details on land they do not have a contract to operate on? Do it as a formal complaint.

Include a copy of the deeds, and your statement that you have not contracted them to operate there.

This is a good avenue to take, and with the BPA, as essentially they are worse than this as they didn't produce a NfK and have never requested details.

I guess I'm simply after a written acceptance (from them) that I can do whatever the hell I like in my spaces - rather than waste playing the POPLA game each time.

I can't be bothered to check, but at five pages I'll be surprised if no one's supplied a link to Davey v UKPC. Google it.

There's your option.

This thrice over. You simply cannot get anything done by 'phone if there is a dispute, you must get it down on paper.

How hard can it be? People here have even written the letters for him!

I hope that you don't mean that people have (even) written letters for me?

I have written all of my own correspondence (albeit appreciatively with advice and support), and ended up binning a 2 page lengthy response - as many posters differed in opinion and a simple one paragraph (no landowner authority) appeal was submitted. So perhaps it's a little harder than is inferred?

This is a question as to whether there is anything to be gained by taking on the Management Co - who I believe are as good as acting as the Residents Assoc Co themselves and therefore are equally accountable.

I'm learning pretty quick here, a little slack appreciated!!

Any Davey v UKPC link (seen and referred to other posts) simply show the detail of the court and success, but doesn't refer to the management co.

And this was because UKPC continued to ticket, I'm trying to prevent this from happening.

Whoever hired the PPC are jointly and severally liable for the actions of their agent, so there's nothing to stop you bringing a claim of trespass/harassment against them as co-defendants along with the parking company.

The only way to prevent them from continuing is to spell out what will happen if they continue to do it, and be prepared to follow through on it, which is precisely what Davey did.

By all means try and be reasonable in getting them to stop, but don't expect that they will necessarily play ball. We're talking about disreputable organisations who have (probably) seduced your Mgmt Co. with the promise of cash.

The point I was addressing is whether there is anything to be gained by telephoning them, and the answer is emphatically no. Similarly when the chips are down I have no truck with email either, paper and snail mail is what carries weight and works.
