Parking Charge Notice

I'm hoping to find it but it has been 7 months and 2 moves (I'm a uni student) since.
Never appealed or responded in any way. I don't think it is an ANPR parking charge as usually, these have a picture of the car going through the barriers, don't they? I have never received any photo evidence.

This is the revised e-mail/ letter in response to my letter before court claim:


I note your Letter Before Claim dated 1st September 2016.

I deny any debt to your client. I will not be telephoning you but require further information in writing.

The driver is not identified in your letter and you have written to me as the registered keeper. I am not liable because I do not believe that your client invoked Schedule 4 of the POFA 2012 with fully compliant documents.

You cannot presume that I am in possession of all the documents referred to in your letter and I require a copy of the Notice to Driver and Notice to Keeper to inspect as I have reason to believe that any Notice to Keeper was non-compliant, and so copies of these documents will ensure that I can make an informed decision. Please send copies of these and any documents that will be produced in the event of your threatened action, including copies of all photographs taken and evidence of the contract itself (clear evidence of the terms on the signs at the time). I would also ask that you send me a copy of the Penalty Charge Notice, as I am unaware of any Penalty Charge Notice being placed on the vehicle.

I also require evidence of the contravention. If the driver is alleged not to have had a parking permit, I cannot be expected to know or answer to that allegation as keeper of the car. However, the burden remains with your client to produce evidence and I require that now (e.g. photographs of the driver leaving the site, if that is the allegation).

In order to understand my legal position, I also require the following information:

1. Is your client's intended action funded on a contractual charge, a breach of a contract or trespass?
2. What is the reason for the additional £50 charge?
3. Where was the £50 charge stated on signage? – Could you provide photo evidence of those signs?
4. If it is for legal services, has your client already paid it?
5. Could you supply evidence that there was no permit or authorisation to park?

When I receive the documents and your answers I will be in a position to make a more detailed response and as such, it would be wholly unreasonable and vexatious to proceed in the small claims track at the present time.

Yours Faithfully,

Lauren Heath

Yes, thank you for spotting that mistake. It should be 'founded'.

Hi,

I have posted about this parking fine previously,

I sent them a letter to say that I wanted more proof etc. They sent me a letter with a different car in a different car park a few days ago and now they've sent a claim form.

What do I do? I've drafted a letter to state that the car isn't mine.


Thank you in advance.

I refer to Gladstones Solicitors.
They are the ones that have been sending me letters. Their previous letter was over 7 months ago, I responded within 2 weeks. They have now (7months later) sent me a response to my letter asking for more information and proof. The car is not my car and it isn't in the correct car park but they have now sent me a claim form!
