UKCPS Fine | Sent first appeal *Help

Wundervar97

Hi,

I recently sent off the initial appeals letter following a fine received from UKCPS ltd in Leeds city. was only notified of the fine through post about a week or two after the ‘incident’. was parked outside a friends flat and apparently the land was owned by UKCPS, the sign was hidden away and have only seen it since they showed the sign after responding to the first appeals template used from the Newbies thread. So - they have now responded with a letter saying they are unable to process your appeal (I’m aware there isn’t really an appeal process with these cowboys) . They also said “Unfortunately we are unable to process your appeal at this stage as the 21 day time frame detailed in the IPC code of practice has lapsed. Therefore, the charge will stand”.

“UKCPS can only address the factual issues of where and how you were parked. We will not enter discussions about the legality of parking on private land or the landowners right to impose parking condiitons on their property. We will only answer points relevant to specific parking event all other points you may have made are irrelevant to the appeal.”

“If you wish to discuss the outstanding debt, please contact us on the number provided. As requested in your letter please find enclosed photographic evidence showing the vehicle parked, with a UKCPS sign displaying the TCs of parking on this land”

^ just to mention the sign has very small lettering and fails the Beavis lettering requirements.

It then says at the bottom of the letter “Please be aware we will not be entering into any further correspondence”

Can anyone point me in the right direction of where to go now please?

You don't appear to have asked a question, but let me guess... you want to know what to do next?

You now need to ignore all letters unless you receive a Letter of Claim or official court correspondence.

Sorry Keith - accidentally clicked post before finishing, Ive updated the rest.

was the driver disclosed at appeal time ?

if not, edit your post to remove any idea of who was driving

no "MY , ME , MYSELF & I" is what I tell people

if the NTK came in the post, it was addressed to the KEEPER , not the driver , so unles somebody blabbed they have no idea who was driving, despite what they said

the NEWBIES FAQ sticky thread tells you what to do next (or not to do, or both)

the reply by KeithP above is correct, whatever your questions are (there is no easy solution or we would say so)

Thanks Redx - There were no details given of the driver so will edit that.

The newbies bit was a little confusing as I couldn’t relate so wasn’t sure on what to do...

Redx

why , what is confusing ?

with an IPC member, its appeal once, then ignore anything except an LBC or an MCOL

WHEREAS with a BPA member its appeal once, THEN appeal to POPLA , then IGNORE anything except an LBC or an MCOL

THE keeper has appealed this pcn of yours, UKCPS have inferred (but not proven) that the keeper and the driver are one and the same person (trying to trip the keeper up)

it is for them to prove they have a valid case, to a judge , in court, within 6 years (as is the case for all of these invoices)

the same would apply if a plumber or mechanic had sent the invoice for their services. ie:- if I owe you, prove in law that I owe you before I pay

meanwhile, you are in IGNORE mode

Thanks Redx - roger that.

They are IPC so will ignore from now on.

Glad to hear it.

That's what I said before I knew the question.

But of course, as I also said, do not ignore a Letter of Claim or official court correspondence.
