    And how would they think the ICO would care, as long as no personally identifiable information is in what someone may post here? Or how would they react to a precis/report of their POPLA submission rather than the verbatim text?

    Oh MY .... someone has the hump ??

    Must be a POPLA report where they lost.

    Hardly a data breach and not sensitive, after all they do work in an unregulated industry.

    Maybe the BPA should have a word in their shell like ear because such a statement makes the BPA look rather stupid.

    Oh Well, each to their own, carry on regardless folks

    Codswallop.
    Its just more inimidation tactics, and bad ones at that.
    Who's car park is this in relation to? is it a big company/corporate body?


    As For OPS these people if, still linked with that shower should hold their heads in shame, although they probably dont give a sh*t and just want to scare people into paying up:

    {Edited by Forum team} also of Bex Cafe, this could be the website https://bexuk.co.uk/


    THe streetveiw location for the cafe is an odd one, if you go on the main road you can see Bex Cafe, however if you go to the side road it changes to Ethical ( something)



    {Edited by Forum team} Also of Toast Restaurants limited (dormant)

    It’s a smallesh car park in Worthing, not sure about the owners.
    I think they are going to lose at POPLA, their response is poor. Also I used some evidence that I obtained here from their solicitors, Gladstones.

    I didn’t reveal the source but suspect they know their site map has been published here.

    I’m not surprised PPCs are getting the hump, we are making their life a lot more difficult here. Easy scamming the public just got harder!

    What you see on here, and other forums such as Pepipoo is nothing more than the tip of a very large iceberg.
    Most people beleive these charges to be fines and a vast majority will pay up, a handful will find this place/pepipoo or even CAG, and even then people will still pay up.

    If the car park is a stand along place then it can be hard but not impossible to find the owner.


    As for this

    Post it up, it has nothing to do with GDPR/data protection, or even the ICO's office.

    I've got one on the go with POPLA at the moment where Civil Enforcement have complained:

    "The Appellant’s POPLA submission raises matters which were not raised in their initial submission. This indicates that the Appellant is fully aware that on the day they failed to adhere to the parking terms, and that their POPLA submission is a deliberate attempt to subvert the appeals process."
    Always remember to abide by Space Corps Directive 39436175880932/B:

    What are they going to do if someone ignores, issue a PCN, (Publication Charge Notice)?

    But the two stages are there to consider two different sets of evidence; the first the circumstance and mitigation, which the stupid scammers laugh at and always turn down.


    The second (POPLA) stage is process, and the law.


    From the POPLA site:


    ....the assessor will consider whether the parking operator has correctly abided by the British Parking Association Code of Practice and relevant law.



    So basically tell them to swivel!

    ahh well in return the OP should write back stating that if the Popla appeal fails , he refuses the right of the parking co to pass any info to debt collection companies of any sort of solicitor

    if the parking co refuse to allow professional help , then the parking co should also be barred from using outside help
