Hi

I received a parking charge notice at work at the hospital in February and today I received a letter of the parking enforcement agency,

I ignored the parking charge notice as I pay parking every month and there was nowhere to park and was going to be late

I parked my car on the yellow Lines next to the disabled parking

I went out numerous of times to move my car,

eventually there was a space a few hours later and moved it!

Shall I ignore this parking charge notice or do I need to pay it?

Thanks

Hello there. Which PPC please?

You probably don't have a problem, but the guys will ask you further questions and advise.

HB

Hi do you mean the company it is parkshield collection ltd? And they have issued the parking charge notice for parking without blue bagde

Thank you for that.

Do you have a permit for the car park please?

HB

Yes I have a permit I pay monthly

Then I think you could be home and dry.

I'll leave those in the know to explain more. Don't worry.

HB

Just one point

In post one and three you say fine??

You sure?

yes I had a parking ticket on my car and now a letter saying it's gone up to £70.00 as I did not pay the first parking parking charge notice

where does anything state the word FINE please??

My letter says: the driver of the above vehicle is required to pay parking charges in respect of the below period of parking to P.C.P enforcement agency.

It also says if it is not paid with in 28 days the agency will have the right to recover so much if that charge as remains unpaid

so nothing they've sentt uses the word fine anywhere then?

No sorry that's just what I call it I apologise

well its very important

only the police a court or the council can FINE you

these are speculative invoices

because you supposedly broke some kind of stupid contract they have with your employers

whereby they fleece people out of money when they don't keep between stupid lines

nor park on yellow lines

well shock coming..its PRIVATE PROPERTY

yellow lines or any lines MEAN STUFF ALL.

I'll leave this one to ericsbrother, but rest assured, the parking company have shot themselves in both feet

Have you identified yourself as the driver?

(If you haven't already, make sure you don't!)

Right,

a screen ticket and the only notification through the post is timed out for keeper liability under para 8 of the POFA.

This means the parking co can only pursue the driver at the time and must show some proof they have the right person.

Now, the fly in the ointment is that you have a works permit so it will inevitable be you so let us look at the other matter to consider.

Parking without a blue badge

- blue badge scheme doesnt apply to private land in England and Wales

anyone who parks in a disabled bay doesnt need one

and if a parking co then sues for not having one

they will have to explain their equalities statements

(they are too thick to understand the law on this so wont have one).

parking on DYL- again,

no treffic order so cannot be enforced.

If you take the paintwork as being a no parking indication then this has nothing to do with parking without a BB and is anyway prohibitive.

You cannnot enter a contract that says you are agreeing to break it from the outset

so parking on a DYL is trespass and only of interest to the landowner, not some mickey mouse parking outfit.

Parking Permit

- as this is issued by the hospital it has supremacy of contract and trumps their offer of a contract and thus their demands.

If the permit conditions say you mustnt park in a particular way

you risk having it cancelled

but again that has nothing to do with these bandits.

It would be helpful if you can post up the NTK with your personal details redacted so we can read what they say,

the wording of certain parts of the claim must be exactly

as the POFA says or again,

no claim against anyone, esp keeper.

After this

a picture of the signs at the entrance to the car park will be very useful in rubbishing the bulk of their claim for this money,

that you either breached a contract

or it is owed because of a contractual condition.

Most of the parking co's cant tell the difference because they dont understand the business they are in now that clamping has been banned.

Ok thank you so much, I will sort the copy out tomorrow and will upload it on here and find out what he sign says in the front of the car park.

After extensive searching (hampered by a migraine) Parkshield are members of the IPC so even if you did appeal, you will get rejected. This is a very small company and their accounts show that they don't have a lot of cash to spare which is probably why they have only taken two cases to court this year. There is no info on whether they won or lost.

Not that this matters as they are out of time in relation to PoFA however, most IPC members do not follow PoFA so they may try it on. I doubt it but you never can tell what mood the company is in on a particular day.

Their website is apalling too.
