UKPC fine on private land, which I live on

boffintosh

Hello

UKPC enforce parking on a sort of private square of land with new build houses,

Basically put a fine on your car if you don’t park on a driveway.

My car was moved for 10 mins to make room for a workman and was slapped with a fine from UKPC

As I love on this private land and pay rent I do not intend to pay this fine,

Please can anyone help me with an appeal letter and method to go about appealing this please?

Thanks

alll explained with a template in the NEWBIES FAQ sticky thread you failed to read before starting this thread


look near the top of this forum, third thread down


the pcn tells you how to appeal it , and as its a windscreen ticket you do this on day 26 following the incident date

Go about it in exactly the same way as you did before.

This is the third thread you have started about the same topic why not be more specific in your enquiry instead of making out you are starting from square one and wasting peopl's time?

Sounds like you parked on communal land rather than the space you have rights to.

It will come down to

a) the wording on the signs - could we see a copy and

b) whether it was actually 10 minutes or was it more (called a grace period) and

c) whether the tithead you refer to in another thread had the power to invite [STRIKE]UKCPM [/STRIKE] UKPC onto the space - but you'd have to check that with the Management Company

Three simple steps.

But things haven't changed, and you left both those threads open with no come back, if you paid these scamming muppets once you are now a prime target to be hounded!


The thing is the PPC's don't want it to be simple or their revenue will get cut off, the process is made as confusing and threatening as it can be to get you to give in.


Take it in stages, send the blue appeal from the newbies thread as directed, and wait for a POPLA code. Then come back, don't give up so easily and don't just leave the thread open ended without coming back.



There are loads of residential threads on here for these Muppets with examples of winning POPLA appeals, but the regulars don't live on your estate and you need to apply some input.

Is the house owned freehold? If so, what do the Deeds say about parking? There are probably covenants in the deeds relating to the common areas of the development.

There are few simple answers, it is a complicated issue, involving contract law, property law, leaseholds, consumer law, civil procedure rules, etc., etc., etc., but most of all it is a scam.

You have to either learn the rules and play the game or pay them, then pay them some more, park elsewhere, or sell your car.

It is not astrophysics, but it is not painting by numbers either.

pre, and be all, it is a scam.

You have omitted the other option: challenge the so-called "rules"; demonstrate that what they are trying to do is not lawful or at least not allowed. That's why the deeds/lease/whatever is the first key, to tell if there is a challenge that can be made.

Indeed ST, but is the OP up to it I have to ask? They seem to be looking for a silver bullet.
