    Rob Cane has passed me your email below, thank you for getting in touch. I will speak to UKPC and ask them to rescind this PCN on this occasion as a gesture of goodwill. 

    I would ask however that on future visits to Riverside that vehicles are kept within the lines. The parent and child spaces are marked to allow more space to get in and out of the vehicle. I appreciate that in this particular space you’re not necessarily inconveniencing another motorist but if we’re going to enforce cars being parked within the bays that needs to be for all spaces on the park. We obviously don’t want to penalise genuine customers, and we are more than willing to waive the fine here, however we do have to have some way of managing a busy car park and ensuring there is enough space for everyone who wants to use it.

    Best regards..


     Afternoon Mr Cane, 

    Hope you can help. 

    As the registered keeper, my daughter has received the attached after the driver was shopping at JYSK Ltd. The image shows that the car was parked within a bay and it left your Retail Park within 4 hours. 

    I have put these facts to UKPC but they persist in predatory requesting invoice payment. Virtually all ‘reviews’ of your site complain about your contractors methods: 

    Riverside Retail Park Warrington | B&M, Home Bargains, Next (visitnorthwest.com) 

    Riverside Retail Park - Car Park (parkopedia.co.uk) 

    Car park nightmare - Riverside Retail Park, Warrington Traveller Reviews - Tripadvisor 

    I appreciate that you need to prevent people that are not shopping with your tenants from parking, but UKPC actions are driving existing customers away. 

    I am therefore asking that you ask your contractor to cancel this parking charge notice, for the good relationship I and my family and friends have with your Retailer Tenants to continue.

    That's great!  Nicely done.

    Could you kindly add that successful complaint & outcome to the Successful Complaints About PPCs thread (the first link in the NEWBIES thread)?

    It will help lots of people and be seen there.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
