Highview Parking

Highview Parking have sent me, as keeper, two charge notices and a charge notice reminder and now I have a legal action pending letter despite sending my template appeal letter on 4/2/19.

The letter threatens use of a debt collection agency and my credit rating.

As keeper not driver of the vehicle I realise that Highview do not use the POFA 2012 wording but they have not provided a reference number to appeal.


I'd really appreciate further advice on what to do next. Thanks.

  • It seems as though I have made an error with the drop down box ! Looking at their email reply they state "Yes" to being the driver. I was not the driver. What can I do now ?

    Many thanks for advice.

    Ask them for a POPLA code. If they haven't provided one complain to the BPA.
  • Thank you. I'm not sure how to approach them for a POPLA code given that I cannot reply to their email and the advice is never to phone them.Maybe go straight to the BPA?

    I guess I have let myself in for need to appeal have I even though it is Highview?

    Go straight to the BPA. I would copy in the DVLA too just to stir it up a bit.

  • Thanks for your reply. I have done that yes.
  • Hi sorry to post on here as a new reply etc but I’ve not been able to find the answer using my iPhone.

    I received a parking fine from highview parking for £85 but paid within 14 days they said they will reduce it to £50. In their letter they provide photos of my car entering and leaving the car park with date and time. I used the car park to access sports direct but when I arrived it hadn’t opened yet so I went to McDonalds for a coffee with my 17 month daughter who had a play and I obviously lost track of time and over stayed hence the ticket. What would you suggest I do? Tia

    1. Read the NEWBIES FAQ sticky, post # 1.
    2. Do a forum search on keywords 'Highview appeal'** and follow advice where others have been very successful.
    3. Start a new thread if, after reading the above advice, you can't understand - but Highview is the easiest of easy!

    ** HOW TO USE THE FORUM SEARCH FUNCTION:

    Hit your 'Back' button to get back to the forum thread list. On the bar just above the threads you'll see the 'Search' function. Click on the 'Advanced Search' button and on the following page place your keyword(s) in the 'Search By Keyword(s)' and make sure the 'Show Results As' button (at the foot of the window) is changed from 'Threads' to 'Posts'.
