    That should be the ICO surely?
    Maybe the OP wants to fire a warning shot across ALDI's bows that their agent (PE) is quite happy to risk a GDPR complaint, which as said in the post below yours, puts them in the frame as well as the employer of PE?

    Well done on your continuing persistence and doggedness.

    I heartily agree with Umko, this must be costing them a small fortune.

    Thanks for your help everyone, just to let you know I had an email reply on behalf of Giles Hurley CEO of Aldi UK today and he is cancelling the Parking Charge Notice for me :) thank goodness! I’m so relieved.
  • Just an update on this. I visited the Aldi near to me on consecutive days. I got 3 ‘fines’. First of all the store manager has the authority to cancel Parking Eye fines. They did it for me as my car is electric and they have no charger so it was not possible for me to leave it there for 24 hours and go to work. I kicked up a real stink the third time. In front of lots of customers. Aldi’s answer. I have now been registered as a member of staff so can park as long as I want! Hope that helps.

    Brilliant, you have been added to the white list - quite right!

    Kicking up a stick with retailers IS the way to get these PCNs cancelled.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

  • so to stop this happening you need to be registered as a member of staff?

    perhaps  if parking eye spent some money on equipment that worked or Aldi paid for a parking attendant with boots on the ground (remember them?) . those double  dips would stop
