Ongoing Brewerygate issues, and illegal reset 2 years later, sanctioned by IPC

- Original PCN 21st august 2023 via postal NTK
- Appealed 2nd sept 2023 - never received response
- IPC later rules that the appeal was valid and received and therefore breach of IPC code 19.4.1.  
- IPC sanctions an unlawful "reset" of the charge in July 2025. I can pay reduced fine or appeal online. I ignore!
- I asked for an explanation including citation of where this is allowed in the code or legal precent. 
- Complaint closed the next day without explanation other than "we cant help any further". 
- Today pointed out to Brewerygate, after realising not only is it invalid due to breach of IPC Code, but also keeper liability doesn't apply anymore.

Every !!!!!!, rushed and uneducated reply from Brewerygate over the 2 years is "provide proof of payment or else". They completely avoid engaging with all my proof of procedural abuse on their part. They also never provided to my request for proof that no payment was made, because they don't have any.

All they have proof my vehicle was there, which I never denied. 

There's so many more layers to this including misconduct, harassment and procedural abuse by their solicitor Gladstone. 

I reported to the ICO, DVLA and SRA as well as Trading Standards. 

Landowner ignored my email so that's a dead-end.

Besides wait for it to go to court what more can I do?

Comments

  • Also, for context:

    • Original LBC in Oct 2023. Replied with my dispute. No response.
    • Chased up in Nov 2023 - they said "leave it with us - we'll hold any proceedings until our legal team can respond."
    • They abandoned the case for 15 months then suddenly "suggested I pay or else..." in Feb 2025. I reply - no response.
    • 5 Months further silence
    • New LBC came through in July 2025 - I replied again. 
    • A week later the status changed to "post-litigation" without any response or explanation. Same day I receive the "reset" of the original PCN
    • I received the PCN again in the post - notice to keeper dated 31st July 2025 for parking 21st August 2023. 
    • Ive made 2 enquiries online and they haven't replied to anything.
    Despite all of the legal grounds I have presented, and the mounting evidence and potential regulatory action against them the operator just wont back down.
