I did contact Holiday Inn head office and they said they could not do anything and they would get the holiday Inn manager for that branch to contact me. He said to email that Holiday Inn Branch.
Do it NOW NOW NOW, get the HI to cancel it.When I email do I tell them who was driving and that the signs were not visible the driver was rushing in.
Your email to PE is too polite, don't apologise to the scum who are about to sue you!
And it is NOT an appeal, so do not call it that. use this instead, with a copy of the V5C document showing your name as keeper.
Dear Sir/Madam,
Re PCN xxxxxx/xxxxxx - response to LBC and Subject Access Request/Restriction Notice under the GDPR
I was alarmed to receive a Letter before Claim and this is my first opportunity to put forward the following points, which will require any litigation to be put 'on hold' as it the PCN should in fact be cancelled, given these facts:
1. I have complained to the Manager of Holiday Inn this week, and they support the PCN being cancelled because the occupants of the car have been confirmed as genuine patrons of the Hotel. Kindly await the email from the Hotel, requesting urgent cancellation, and note that this removes any excuse of 'commercial justification' you may have tried to use in court. You have no cause of action and the Beavis case is inapplicable and completely different in all facts.
2. No compliant Notice to Keeper was served or received and your supposedly subsequent letter dated 24th September was delivered outside of the relevant period under Schedule 4 sub paragraph 9(4)(5). Therefore as registered keeper, I cannot be made liable for this charge in any case.
3. Should you not cancel this charge as required by Holiday Inn, I require copies of all photos taken, including all terms on signs that day, inside and out, including images from within the Hotel if it is contended that you had one of your hidden iPads under the counter, which I have discovered is all too prevalent at the Hotels where your firm are supposed to be deterring trespassers, not harassing guests. I also require copies of all letters you say were posted, and you must consider this a SAR.
Article 15 of the GDPR sets out the the information that individuals have the right to be provided with. Broadly this covers providing information about:
- What personal data it is being processed
- The purposes for which the personal data is being
- Who the personal data has or will be disclosed
- The existence of any automated decision-making, including profiling. And, at least where this produces legal or similarly significant effects, what logic is being used for that purpose.
- How long the data will be retained for (or at least the criteria used to determine this)
Kindly supply all of the above and await the cancellation email from the Hotel. For the avoidance of doubt, given the circumstances, this also constitutes a Notice of Rectification (in that the vehicle's occupants were patrons of the Hotel, and thus the VRN can now be added to an exempt 'white list' that day) and a Notice of Restriction of data, requiring your DPO to confirm how long the case will be placed 'on hold' for the SAR disclosure, and to allow the Hotel Manager to handle my complaint.
Yours Faithfully

As it is a SAR as well as a reply to a LBC, attach a copy of your V5C as proof of ID, to tie you to the data relating to the car.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Hello and thanks for all your help.
I in fact appealed to Parking Eye a few days ago using the reply that Guys Dad had posted in my Thread as I was scared I was running out of time. Parking Eye sent me an automated reply telling me that the appeal had been received and that they would get back to me. It could take them upto 28 days to send a written reply to me.
When they do reply back I will wrote back if required taking your further points on board.
Thank you again0 -
But a SAR is not an appeal. They are different.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Hi there ok so I appealed on the 30th October they sent me a automated generic email on the 31st October stating they were looking at the appeal and it could take up to 28 days for a written response. They then replied by email on the 30th November again sending a generic letter thanking me for my correspondence and received my response to their letter before LBCCC and they would respond within 30 days of receipt. Then on the 17th December I received a generic letter in the post along with all the notices they have allegedly sent me and rejected my appeal. It seems everything I have said has fallen on deaf ears and they are given me 14 days to pay the £100. What should I do. Do they think £100 grows on Xmas trees?..0
-
They failed to act on my dispute that I did not receive any correspondence from them until the 24th September0
-
You haven't said, but did you send the SAR that C-m suggested on 2nd November?0
-
Sorry I don’t quite understand what a SAR is?
I had already called the holiday Inn and they were unhelpful. So I wrote directly to Parking Eye because I was running out of time. I haven’t been well so this didn’t help.
I will email Holiday Inn instead today see what they say. In my email do I put that drivers details or do I say patrons of the hotel.
Many thanks for your help.0 -
SAR = Subject Access Request. Ask Auntie Google or check out the Legal Beagles site for suggested letters.0
