    You can't use this forum properly on a phone.
    Is the below the standard SAR?
    If it's the one posted in the NEWBIES thread then yes, and no need to check, as the sticky thread is up to date.

    Thank you it’s the one from the legal beagle link on the newbies thread # 2.
    Do we need to add the keepers phone number?

    No I would never give that to a scammer.

    The keeper has now received a FINAL LETTER BEFORE DEBT RECOVERY OR COURT ACTION (crapping myself).
    With laughter, like we would?!

    :D

    I have just noticed that they have the wrong car on the NTK, so if I send them the V5 they will realise their mistake, can I send them a photograph of the driving licence?

    Also if they requested the detail from the DVLA they would have got the correct car through, which then begs the question where did they get the driver details from?

    Many judges regard BOC claims such as this as a trifling matter.

    especially if one was forced to do so.

    Nine times out of ten these tickets are scams so complain to your MP.

    Parliament is well aware of the MO of these private parking companies, and on 15th March 2019 a Bill was enacted to curb the excesses of these shysters. Codes of Practice are being drawn up, an independent appeals service will be set up, and access to the DVLA's date base more rigorously policed, persistent offenders denied access to the DVLA database and unable to operate.

    Hopefully life will become impossible for the worst of these scammers, but until this is done you should still complain to your MP, citing the new legislation.

    http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2019/8/contents/enacted

    Just as the clampers were finally closed down, so hopefully will many of these Private Parking Companies.
    You never know how far you can go until you go too far.

    Thanks the deep,

    It is certainly pretty crap that these guys are not regulated and that the keepers details can be handed out without even a review!
    However this site has given me the desire to fight the PCN and with the help, support and information these threads contain it makes life so much easier.
    Thanks again for all you help
    I will be sure to let you know how I get on.
