    And do this please (both of you individually within the next 3 weeks only:

    Get ANGRY and GET EVEN about this scam!   Please now make a real difference:

    A TASK FOR SEPTEMBER:

    The Government is (this month only) consulting about a new statutory code of practice (CoP) and framework to rein in the rogue parking firms.  Read and comment on the draft CoP proposal and the enforcement framework consultation, and get everyone you know to do the same.

    You will need to register to comment on the CoP and enter an occupation even if you are retired or a homemaker, but otherwise it is easy to navigate, and comment upon each section/subsection individually. You can save comments to edit later and or submit comments once you are happy with them.

    https://standardsdevelopment.bsigroup.com/projects/2020-00193#/section

    You do not need to register to comment on the enforcement framework which can be found here. It has a link on page 5 to make comments.

    https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/913272/Code_Enforcement_Framework_consultation.pdf

    At the very least, we say the parking charge level should be £50/£25 or higher level £70/£35, as per Council PCNs in E&W.  

    And we say the added fake 'debt recovery' costs are just double counting the cost of letters and MUST GO.  Remove that layer and you remove the ‘drivers’ behind the race to court.

    HOW TO DO THE SUBMISSIONS:

    Responses into the PAS 232 and MHCLG framework documents are not completely straightforward:

    On the MHCLG response, you have to answer the questions on a 1-5 scale from strongly agree to strongly disagree, and then put some commentary. No way to upload documents or alternatives.

     

    On the PAS 232, you have to click on each clause and sub-clause to put your comments, and a suggested rewording of their draft.  You can see comments which other people have written! 

     

    But, when you click ‘submit’, a message pops up to say your comments have been received, but that only applies to the particular clause you have just addressed.

     

    You have to click ‘submit’ separately for each individual clause response.

     

    Some people will be caught out by this but can revisit it and add further responses up to 12 October.

    You know, I'm going to try this one more time before I give up.  Third time lucky - who knows?
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

    @Umkomaas."Did your wife provide the name and postal address of the driver"
    Yes she did. But we asked the lady n she said she never received any letter from them. 
    But debt collector agency told my wife today that the email she sent identifying the driver was rejected by the parking company. But the parking company didn't reply to that email.
  • can you please provide me the copy of the PCN ? I will try to assist you. I have worked in that industry for 2 years

    Eminowa don't provide a copy of the PCN to duralex1980.  Their intentions may be good but you can't know that for sure.

    Touting for business is also not allowed on the forum and the LAST person to trust is a newbie who works in that 'industry'.
