Notice to Keeper - can they put it on hold?

BarneyFish

Thank you pappa golf and Keith.

What's the best course of action? I've emailed them stating that because no NTK has been sent, it should be cancelled. That's what I took from the newbies thread. Shall I wait for their reply and see what happens?

pappa_golf

you contacted them and gave them your details

yes they are supposed to check with the dvla , but what do they care , its a mugs game 75% will pay up after DR+ letter

BarneyFish

I did, but they do not know the driver.

pappa_golf

correct butb they may just try it on , I dont think you have actually appealed or spoken to the parking Co , your communication has been thru debt collectors ,

what is the appeal address on the ticket?

pappa_golf

the online appeal page peaparking/zattapeal is OWNED and run by DR+ and PCS http://peaparking.zatappeal.com/

I am astonished - this is such a minefield! I’ve never had a packing ticket before.

The appeals address on the ticket is enquiries@parkingcsl.co.uk which is the address I emailed and which replied with the POLPA code.

pappa_golf

the email address you quote is appeals AT parking collection services and as youn now know , they are the same company as DR+ , look at footers of letters ,, xxx is a trading style of xxxx

too late now for POPLA, hence one reason why DRP and PCS (SAME COMPANY) are involved

PCS are not a parking company , they are debt collectors doing the back office work for PESS

there are no "REGULATIONS" , its an unregulated industry

people have this strange notion that these invoices can be deemed as "invalid", its a myth with nothing to support it

POFA2012 is not mandatory, so they can ignore it and not follow it , BUT this makes it much , much harder for them to hold a keeper liable for the invoice

so as keeper , you may win if they were to issue a court case using MCOL, they have 6 years to do this and are not going to cancel it after any perceived 56 day window of yours

72 months to put it before a judge, in the small claims court

so at the moment you are at 0-0 with neither side budging , which is the debt collector mithering stage

come back if you get an LBC or an MCOL within 6 years
