Ask them to find out. Email with link. You could do a FOI request asking for copies of the due diligence procedure and data the hospital conducted and collected before contracting with UKPC - and did that due diligence include asking UKPC about the report of their appalling record at hospitals?Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

Do remember that while the NHS is happy to allow
scammers to steal money from their staff, Hunt is living
a ripe old life buying properties in the South to rent out
Sounds like my Trust might be aware all along that UKPC are scammers but just didn't care.0 -

With all the bad publicity about parking and UKPC, someone
knows, the big question is still .... "who benefits from this"

A FOI request doesn't have to be in your real name - a nom de plume is fine. Go here:

Hi all, I am back, thanks for all your help so far.
1st problem: I have now received a COUNTY COURT LETTER which I have to reply to within 14 days. I am hopefully banking on your help and support in winning this case.
1st of, do I reply disputing the total amount? If I do, can this be based on already paid as most times I had a parking permit but no space to park.
OR
Do I dispute and base it on defence of unfair parking tickets being issued due to above reason and many more..... actually reading this I think using the defence method is better as this will expose all UKPC unfairness.
My 2nd problem is the trust, I emailed my trust requesting
1) details of contract with UKPC or at least dates the contracts were valid.
2) knowledge of / research done on UKPC prior to awarding them contract.
3) their awareness of UKPC's ban.
Anyway, below is their reply which by the way arrived 21days after my initial request. I sent a reminder on the 28th of June. They have breached the code of FOI act 2000
*****Thank you for your request dated 14th June 2018. Please find the response below.
1) I would like a copy of the contract you agreed with UKPC please, being the landowner.
This is commercially sensitive information and falls within the Freedom of information Act 2000 exemption at section 43 (2) - commercial interests. It is the Trust!!!8217;s view that if this information were to be disclosed it would be likely to prejudice the Trust or a third party in its commercial dealings
Also, if the contract does not instruct them to take people to court for outstanding penalty payments, could you please include any proof of authorisation you have given them.

2) Are you aware the company has a reputation of being brutal, unfair and falsifying tickets and pictures and for these reasons, DVLA has banned them from issuing further tickets for now?
We can confirm there is no current ban in force.
3) Who decided that this company was the best one to contract the management of parking on the Trust sites to?
This was a trust decision.
4) If the contract has already been terminated? Could you please provide the termination date to also include the start date.
N/A *********
Basically, they are hiding behind commercially sensitive information. At least they did not deny it being foe their own commercial gain.
They denied any ban on UKPC.
I am still in communication with them as they have breached the FOI act and I will be making official complaints to the ICO (Information Commissioner's Office)
Also, the parking office at the trust is now ignoring my emails and telephone messages after they promised to look into the whole thing with UKPC and unfair charges for me. They suddenly stopped communicating with me. UKPC probably told them to butt out as they are planning on taking me to court anyway.
Luckily the Trust can't ignore me as there are laws they have to abide by.
Thank you for your reply guys. Main concern is the County Court Claims.0 -
