Email reply from Greg Barraclough today:

"Dear XX,

Thank you for your email, the contents of which are noted.

I can further advise that this particular matter has been brought to my attention by MP Olivia Blake and I replied to her on 5th June.

In respect of the contract, as you correctly state there is a contract in place with Excel Parking Services to operate car parking restrictions at Berkeley Precinct. Visitors to the site are advised of their instruction and the restrictions that are in place across the site via the signage posted.  

With regards to the enforcement notice having being issued by VCS Ltd, I understand that VCS Ltd are part of Excel and are who their notices are typically issued by. The validity of the notice is not for me to comment on or determine , though I have cc’d Jake Burgess, Legal Executive for Excel – who should be able to clarify further.

Kind regards

Greg"

Dear Mr Barraclough.
     VCS are not part of Excel. Whilst Excel wholly own Excel, they are completely separate legal entities with separate company numbers according to Companies House. 
     It is well established in law that a parking contract can only exist between the party named on the sign, in this case Excel Parking, and the motorist, not VCS an
     For one registered company to pass personal details to another registered company could well be a breach of data protection regulations.
     

Yours,

Leviathan

Thanks Fruitcake.  Sending this shortly to Greg & Jake!

Dear Mr Barraclough.

Thank you for your email.

VCS are not part of Excel.  Whilst VCS wholly own Excel, they are completely separate accounting companies with separate company numbers according to Companies House.  It is well established in law, that a parking contract can only exist between the party named on the sign, in this case Excel Parking, and the motorist, not VCS and the motorist.

For one registered company to pass personal details to another registered company could well be a breach of data protection regulations. 

Additionally, it has yet to be established in law, if Jake Burgess really exists. 

So I request again, that this fake claim on your land, be struck out please.

Yours sincerely

No, Jake Burgess exists and seems by all accounts, to think he's some sort of legal whizz.  He's clearly not!

DoaM

Was Jake actually CC'd in on the email you received? If yes then you could reply-all to the email so Jake realises the world of hurt he's building up.

Would it be worth informing Mr. Barraclough of an intent to call him as a witness in respect of the contract situation?

This is a pay and display ticket that is clearly in the name of Excel Parking Services, as is the signage.
 Although it's from last year, the ones currently issued are the same.

It's the other way round:-Excel wholly owns VCS.
