Hi
Not used this process for a couple of years now but recently got a PCN in the family.
I sent a IPC based template to UK CPS (Bpa member) and obviously got rejected.
Can i rescue this now. They want me to either
1) pay £100
2) Court/Debt Collection.
Thanks

the only way of rescuing it is GET THE LANDOWNER , RETAILER or Managing Agent to cancel it
you could IGNORE it and them and MIAH and debt collection for 6 years, which is the time they have to raise a court case in the small claims court
otherwise its pay
there are no "quick fixes" apart from a landowner cancellation
UKCPS dont use the BPA (although they are a corporate member of both organisations)
for 18 months they have used the IPC and IAS only0 -

If you used the IPC template from the NEWBIES thread then you ignore anything and everything except real court papers or an LBCC. As above, complain to the landowner/retailer whilst you are ignoring.I married my cousin. I had to...I don't have a sister.

Is there an easy way to find the land owner?0

you can read a lot of good advice about this PPC and their methods in this previous thread

If I give the retailer an email - how is the best action to proceed. I.e a letter/email confirming they are happy with this. Or do I get them to speak to UK CPS.

you get the business or owner that made the contract with UKCPS to contact UKCPS and get the charge cancelled, probably under the t & c`s of that contract
until this is done and you get either side of that contract to cancel this charge, the charge remains live and UKCPS (or the other party) can take court proceedings
so in simple terms, you get the "other party" in that contract to tell UKCPS to cancel the charge and get that in writing, keeping it for 6 years just in case it reappears in court papers etc
so one of those 2 parties who entered into that parking contract must be willing to cancel this invoice and you need written evidence to prove that the invoice has been cancelled , until then its a valid invoice (even if its not able to be enforced in a court)
its only a valid invoice if its tested in court and a judge says so and awards them a judgment, until then its a disputed invoice and to win you need written evidence to help to prove your case0 -

Go in to see the manager initially (not customer services), if that doesn't work email/write to the CEO of the company.
If they're going to cancel they will need to inform the PPC to do it, if they are going to do so, they will know how to do it.
If they tell you they will cancel it, ask if they'd confirm it in a quick email to you.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. .

This company may be evading v.a.t. If, as they claim,
this is contractual charge, it is a fee for parking, and thus vatable. Have they accounted for vat on their paper work?
Ask them for a vat invoice. If they ignore your request, (which they probably will), it is a useful stick with which to beat them if it ever gets to court.

Not a friendly 'are you happy with this' or 'could you have a word with UKPCS' email.If I give the retailer an email - how is the best action to proceed. I.e a letter/email confirming they are happy with this. Or do I get them to speak to UK CPS.
A complaint email, assertively but politely written (not friendly, not an 'appeal', no excuses, no 'my fault'!). Write saying you expect this unfair charge to be cancelled, expect them to TELL UKPCS to cancel it because you know they are agents who will cancel if instructed by the landowner/retailer.
And a threat of debt collection is nothing. It's a threat saying 'pay up or else we'll...get some random firm to send you letters'! A big fat 'so what' to those letters. Most cases never go to court but are defendable if so.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
