    I am pushing the above because we should be making use of the DMCC Act now.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    So what do I do now as in do I appeal to the ias showing them proof of their refusal to transfer liability which is breaching their code of conduct that they should be following or would I have to take this to court and let the judge see how they have been towards me ?

    No. Something like this?

    Dear PPC

    Thank you for your letter of X.

    While it is a matter for you as to whether you wish to pursue the driver of vehicle X, as the keeper I have provided you with the relevant information required by PoFA Sch IV. Having done so, I will not engage in any further correspondence.

    You are welcome to issue proceedings against me as keeper should you wish, but any proposed action is misconceived, given that the PPC possess details of the driver and entitlement to pursue the keeper only arises in circumstances where the driver is unknown. Accordingly, and given that the PPC accept that this is the correct legal position, I reserve the right to provide this correspondence to the court and to seek costs for unreasonable conduct should proceedings be issued against me.

    ----

    The reason PoFA doesn't specify the information sought may include, inter alia...

    1. That the keeper is not a data controller 
    2. That the keeper is not required to inspect or to retain a copy of another driver's licence as a matter of law
    3. That it is perfectly possible to permit the use of a car which insured on the driver's own policy not the keeper's (see 2 above) or to possess block cover for drivers unnamed (which wouldn't help the claimant very much)

    Above all else, however, is the fact that if you're misleading them about the driver now, these documents don't magically solve that. You could lie just as easily about someone named on all the docs they have asked for.

    Obviously if they're totally uncertain they should just sue you both, but I've never seen that on this forum...

    Do you know who's car park this is/was, and where?

    This is utterly ridiculous and shows how dense some PPC's are they don't need and have no right to see either documents.

    @Half_way it was at uxbridge high Rd where they have the ridiculous no stopping area with signs that are all waist level and only on the left side of the wall no signs what so ever on the grey wall so if cars were parked in the bays by the wall and there are actual bays marked in faded white lines which can confuse motorists it would obscure the signs and there is no clear floor markings to differentiate the adjacent public high way to the private property I will show you a picture below

    @Johnersh thanks, so should I appeal to ias see what they say which most likely they will side with ppc then if I take it to court would I stand a chance to beat them seeing as they refused to transfer liabilty ?

    Oh not this old honeytrap this has been like this for years, the signage is useless (is worse than five years ago) and doesn't conform to any COP or regulation on CCTV/ANPR and the alledged contract is forbidding.
    They know it and keep going with it as it is just a money trap!
