    The British Parking Association considered the situation unsustainable because, if motorists felt they could park with impunity, it would make parking management very difficult. Therefore, the British Parking Association took the decision to remove the requirement for parking operators to signpost motorists to POPLA for parking charges or penalty charges issued under byelaws from 18 September 2017.
    The BPA should be deeply ashamed of their own conduct, as well as the despicable begging letter demands of ZZPS and Indigo.

    ''Unsustainable''. Good, let Indigo go under then. Who gives a stuff if life is unsustainable for such cowboys, parasites on Society (the words of MPs on Parliament in several debates).

    Good, I hope life is unsustainable for such scum very soon. Hate companies who rip people off.

    What the BPA said equates to: ''waaah, not fair, if we can't win appeals, we won't offer appeals at all''. Astonishing this is legal; the BPA suits should having their heads in shame for thinking that it's OK to exempt a fake penalty-issuer from POPLA and let them ride roughshod over the rights of consumers.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    It would make somebody’s job “very difficult “. My heart bleeds. Come and do my job and I will show you very difficult.
  • So below is the reply from INDGIO - Clearly have no idea what they are on about. I had appealed hence why I was able to go to POPLA! Interesting that they said about getting my fathers details from DVLA, I didn't think DVLA where able to give out personal information?


    Good morning.

    The penalty notice has been correctly issued in accordance with the railway byelaws. We have authorisation from the railway company to act on the behalf by enforcing the car park.

    It is stated on the back of the penalty notice you received that customers are given 28 days in which to appeal their notice. As we received no appeal or payment for the notice within this time frame, it passed over to our debt collection agency, ZZPS. When this is done customers' details are attained from the DVLA.

    As the notice has passed over to ZZPS all correspondence must now go through them directly.

    Kind regards,

    Tasha Hawthorn

  • LOL i was thinking the same thing. I sent them a qoute to say that they are unable to inforce the byelaw, thats down to the trian station.

    What information are the DVLA allowed to give out? it was sent to my dad in his name - There was never anything for him to send back to say he was not the driver at the time.

    POPLA is not available when it is a rail "penalty" under Regulation 14. The owner or driver may be liable to the Train Operating Company and never Indigo nor ZZPS. It will time out in 6 months so chill.

  • Just a thought, Would it be an idea to contact ZZPS - And advise then that they have bullied my father into paying with the less than legal letters, and also while the "fine" was in appeal stage? I

    I thought you were advised to tell the BPA that in order to get them sanctioned

    any letters to zzps will go in the bin unread , you have paid up , case closed

    there was a case of a motorist who was charged going to get money back via CC , I think they simply paid up

  • I have wrote to BPA - But I need to re write to them to advise that ZZPS have harassed my dad for the money.

    I have just gone back to Indigo with more information to explain they are unable to inforce the byelaw and this would need to be from the TOC not them.


    I will issue a letter before claim and pay the £ to issue should i need to.
