    I will write to my MP to report this misleading parking ticket. Hope one day, this kind of PCN can be announced as scam to be banned.
    You have missed the fact that the MP,s voted on this in the 2019 Parking bill which came into royal assent over 18 months ago , recently the public consultation finished from the Mhclg and BSI for the new CoP , expected to start in the new year , 2021

    Hopefully this will reign them in and make them follow stricter guidelines etc

    Very much doubt they would trawl through the thousands of entries on the database even if a) there was such a thing and b) they were allowed to, as posted by @Redx.

    Hi Fruitcake and Le_Kirk,
    Many thanks for the swift help. I did not say I was the driver. But they have a very clear photo with SOMEONE at the driver's seat. This made me very uncomfortable.
    I will write to the landowner to see what may happen if I can find who is. 
    Many thanks again.
    Parking scammers read this forum. It is more likely a poster will say they were driving and the scammers will take a screen-grab in addition to other unique information posted in a thread, than them having a name and address with photo' to compare it to.
    I married my cousin. I had to...
    I don't have a sister. :D
