Received PCN from ParkDirectUK

Hi All,

I’ve received a Parking Charge Notice from ParkDirectUK for staying in a no-parking area for around 25 minutes. I was inside the vehicle the entire time and did not leave it unattended.

For context, I had parked there briefly while waiting for food from Shah's Halal Food. I did not leave the site, and my vehicle remained stationary for less than 25 minutes.

I submitted an appeal online within the required timeframe using the one size fits all template. However, I’ve now received a further notice from them.

Both notices are attached for reference. I’d really appreciate any advice from the experienced members here on how best to proceed from this point.

Previous online appeal sent below:

'Dear Park Direct UK,

I dispute your 'parking charge', as the keeper of the vehicle. I deny any liability or contractual agreement and I will be making a complaint about your predatory conduct to your client landowner.

There will be no admissions as to who was driving and no assumptions can be drawn. Since your PCN is a vague template, I require an explanation of the allegation and your evidence. You must include a close up actual photograph of the sign you contend was at the location on the material date as well as your images of the vehicle.

If the allegation concerns a PDT machine, the data supplied in response to this appeal must include the record of payments made - showing partial VRNs - and an explanation of the reason for the PCN, because your Notice does not explain it.

If the allegation involves an alleged overstay of minutes, your evidence must include the actual grace period agreed by the landowner.

At no point was traffic obstructed, an entrance blocked, or any inconvenience caused. The vehicle remained in the location for less than 25 minutes, with no awareness that stopping in that area was prohibited at night. As proof, I am attaching a screenshot of the transaction from Shah's Halal Food, confirming a genuine customer visit and stay for less than 25 minutes on that day'

Kind regards,

pcnwarrior7.

I appreciate your valuable advice. I will stick to public roads next time.
