    Can't obviously see anything I've missed other than my surname which was intentional. Please let me know if there's something else though.

    We need the info shown; it's intentional otherwise how can we cite the case?
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Yeah it's a bit unfortunate that you have to dox yourself in order for other people to benefit from your case.

    This is brilliant!  Well done on winning this claim against UKPC! 

    So others can quote it, can you tell us:

    Claim number
    Date of hearing
    Judge's name?
    Thanks! I couldn't have done it without the incredible advice on this forum.

    The case was L6QZ0K0Q, Charlton vs UK Parking Control Ltd, 17/04/2025 and it was DDJ Ramsden.
    I have high hopes of some PPCs being fined by the CMA in future, in view of their new powers this month as a result of the DMCC Act.
    I would certainly love to see that - thanks for the article link. It's hard to think of any other group that relies on unfair and unreasonable behaviour at such scale as the PPC industry.

    Did you get the written short judgment from DJ Ramsden that confirms you won your claim? That will help us cite it in future, alongside Simon Clay v CEL.

    And there's more:

    FIGHTBACK ALERT

    Please do the government's Public Consultation. We need every poster to complete this vital survey before the deadline.

    See this thread:

    https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6617396/parking-code-of-practice-consultation-now-extended-closes-friday-26th-september/p1

    We understand that you may need some pointers. It looks laborious, we get that. It doesn't matter; no knowledge is needed except re your own experiences so you can call out a scam industry and you'll protect millions of motorists and help change the law. 

    I've written some guidance to help focus new posters on the issues. I've covered almost every question, providing ideas if you agree with our stance on things like DRFs, which we say must be banned.

    Ordinary people like you are falling victim to this scam 15 million times per annum. Motorists need your voice added please.

    CLOSES ON FRIDAY 26th SEPTEMBER.

    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
