Notice of debt recovery UK parking control

superworm

Hi,
I received a debt collection notice at our new address for apparently parking on private property (in permit area without displaying a permit in a private residential building parking).

There was no charge notice left on the windscreen.

The V5C would still be mapped to the previous address and has not been moved to the new property address yet, and this was the first communication sent to the new property address, so unsure how that was obtained.

Question:
Do we have the right to appeal with popla, even though the letter says that we no longer have the right to appeal the charge. 

What should we do now? Not pay? or write to the parking company?

Thanks so much for your assistance in advance.

Welcome!  Clearly you don't pay it.

You should respond (NOT BY PHONE, EVER) giving your new address and telling them - DRA & PPC both - to ERASE the old address, citing the Joint Code of Practice clause about reissuing PCNs when addresses have changed.

DO NOT talk about who the driver was or the story of the PCN. Which PPC?

Thanks @Coupon-mad
Its UK Parking Control Ltd. 

I emailed appealmoreinfo@ukparkingcontrol.com but got an email suggesting it was not monitored email.
Is there any other email anyone has where I can email them about the change of address and reissue of PCN?

It also offered link to their site. Interestingly, When one enters the PCN reference and vehicle number, an appeal on their site can be entered, would you recommend I go ahead and lodge an appeal anyway? (I will type a draft and share for this forum's help in review before I submit).

Email a Data Rectification Notice to the DPO at the parking company,  with proof of the current address and they must erase the old address 

You cannot appeal to popla

Good morning.
I've received the "final notice". But the address of the supposed violation has been changed and the date of the event is also printed as Feb.
It appears from this thread that I cannot appeal to POPLA anymore, but does this discrepancy in any way help me?

I am a bit lost on what I should be doing now, should I just keep ignoring their letters?

I have emailed them for data rectification notice, but havent quoted any PCN reference as part of those email communication to them.

It may help you in a court claim,  unless there are 2 different pcns, on different dates, ?  but changes nothing at this point

Shocking red letter intimidation. Ignore it.

The BPA should be ashamed of not retaining clause 24.4 (two reminder letters) in the Joint Code.

It was in the BPA Code solidly, in EVERY CoP since 2012! How dare their staff not insist on retaining that best practice safeguard. They look to have been steered by the IPC and debt collectors on their AOS board. Shame on you, BPA.

Those two notices you have shown us today are for two different parking events - one in London and one in Birmingham.

@KeithP it might seem so but it’s not. The reference numbers are the same, and they take to the same set of images.  they’ve certainly messed up.

Another letter popped thru this time from DCBL. Wonder if I need to acknowledge anything/do anything at all? @Coupon-mad
