    They have a company number 03994226 but not on paperwork.  Agree no registration found with ICO using name or postcode
    Thank you. Can I ask what it means that they are not on the ICO register? 
    And also that they haven’t put their company number on the paperwork?

    Not only must they register with ICO In order to process personal data but it is a requirement of the Kadoe contract which enables them to obtain driver details from DVLA. BPA membership also requires compliance with Code of Practice v9 12.2 - which states they must register with ICO.

    Oh wow - so in theory I could report them?!

    But in reality best just to follow Newbie thread advice and wait this out

    So they are ICO registered? Does that change anything in terms of if I appeal or just pay the £40?

    I have just searched ICO using exactly the info I used before and it comes up so there must have been a blimp on their system when Castle and I searched earlier today.  Sorry about that.

    No worries, thank you. I just wanted to double check what that means for me then?
    Is this worth me following the newbie thread to appeal (I have been trying to contact land owner to complain most of today with no luck) - or with the uncertainly is taking the £40 the right thing?
