Hi, reading the **NEWBIES!! PRIVATE PARKING TICKET? OLD OR NEW? **READ THESE FAQS FIRST!** Thankyou! post, as well as the POFA & all it's legal jargon i am confused.

I appealed against a well known parking co in England & they say:
"We write to acknowledge receipt of your recent online appeal, on behalf of the driver, appealing against the issuing of a Parking Charge Notice (PCN) to the vehicle.

We note your comments and must refer you to the Protection of Freedoms Act (PoFA) 2012, Schedule 4 - Recovery of unpaid Parking Charges.

Having carefully considered your request of the Data Protection Act s.10 on this occasion we have decided that your request is unjustified as per the reasons above.

We must therefore request that the details of the driver of the vehicle at the time of the contravention are supplied; this must include their full name and serviceable UK postal address. If you are unwilling or unable to provide these details the registered keeper of this vehicle will remain liable for this PCN. This information should be provided by <date withheld for protection>. Please note, Premier Park Limited will not reply to any correspondence until after the above date, if the requested information is not provided.

If we do not receive this information by the date given, the registered keeper of the vehicle at the date of event will be held liable"

how to i proceed from here?
From what i can understand of schedule 4 it says:
"Conditions that must be met for purposes of paragraph 4
5(1)The first condition is that the creditor—
(a)has the right to enforce against the driver of the vehicle the requirement to pay the unpaid parking charges; but"
- there was no parking charge, it was free for an initial time period (a time period i did not go over) but needed to enter car details (this was not clear on the signs).
many thx

  • Parking charge in that part of POFA refers to the PCN, not the charger to use the car park (parking fee, maybe, to differentiate it)

    So PPL will reject - as the newbies thread tells you - you then appeal to POPLA - who are about 50:50 with PP from memory - and IF you lose you then ignore iuntil yo uget a claim form or LBA. Exactly as the newbies thread tells you

    You dont go to the newbies thread once....
