Parking ticket from UKCPM when Gatwick parking company had my car

I discharged liability on the 16th October and last night I filled in an extra appeal as it was the last day to do so, and I can count it as evidence if need be.Bazarius said:It appears to me that the Keeper must discharge liability for the PCN NOW by filling in the transfer of liability naming the firm and provide their address .Irrespective of whether it was somebody else driving - the keeper will still be liable if the action above isn’t taken. (If the PCN is Pofa compliant)If the airport parking company denies liability and it passes back onto you then you can defend it in court properly and you will win .
Reason being, the liability transfer form is set up in such a way it asks for Title/Forename/Surname. No way to identify a company. So I put the company name in that section.
It’s obviously done in such a way that if you don’t have the exact name and address of the driver, you’re non-compliant. However on the PCN it states that I should fill out the form to ‘help lead to the identification of’ the driver. So I’ve noted that on my appeal too.If I have to go to court to defend this, I have unfalsifiable evidence that I was not the driver, and I will go!3 -
The name and address of the company that had your vehicle at the time it was parked is fine . They will have to either name the driver or become vicariously liable for its own staff or agents .Alepko said:
