The plot thickens!! Thanks very much! Well, it's 'D Day' tomorrow so I'd better assemble some words and boot them off!

The thing that this does most for me is that it emphasises the true motivation behind what NPS are doing i.e. it's totally mercenary! Council car park restrictions exist to stop people abusing a 30 minute spot outside a shop and this like - once round the block then back to parking again where you've just been. The total parking in this instance was way under the 'prescribed' 90 minutes so it's quite obviously just a cash-grabbing tactic! EBC planning applications are very accessible and guess what? There aren't any from NPS in any form!! https://www.erewash

The learning continues (well I think I'm learning!)... I hadn't noticed that you can view your PCN on NPS' website. Strangely, the one for my other half seems quite different to how I remember it but I'm unreliable! What I DO find interesting is that they're trying to do her for returning within the prohibited period - not overstaying! Apparently she clocked in first at 11:06, out at 11:45 then in again at 12:37 (a whole 8 minutes too early!) and out again at 12:53 - a total of only 55 minutes parking - and clearly nowhere near the allowed 90 minutes. Once a

I've read loads - that's why I'm now so confused!! I've uploaded the letters as per Post 2. I've read the response in the link from the last message - that doesn't fit as NPS (NE) were the Company trading in 2017 so everything related to our cases is under the new company. I know they've had three cases from the same time kicked out by POPLA for non-compliance with the BPA COP but it looks to me as though using newmoses' cases might not work as his were post-April 2017 (up to which NPS can demonstrate compliance - see attached). Consequently, I'm not super-c

Guys, we have three days left in which to respond to this. While I appreciate all the input we've received, at present we seem to be left with more questions than answers so is anyone in a position to advise what to do next please?

Anthony David McMenamin was MD of NPS and resigned on January 1st, 2014. He then became MD of NPS (NE) Ltd which was incorporated on February 10th, 2014. Not that this has any real bearing on the objectives here - it just shows a clear connection between the companies. Interestingly, NPS were 'Gazetted' on July 30th, 2013 and don't appear to have traded effectively after that and until they were dissolved by compulsory strike-off in January 2016 so although they legally existed at the same time, only NPS (NE) Ltd appears to have been (not surprisingly) actively trading. It's also q

A few things fall out if this then; As I’ve mentioned, we don’t have either of the original PCN’s. Should we ask for copies? There’s no question over who was driving – we know that in both cases. Northern Parking Ltd ceased trading (presumably when the MD resigned) on January 1st, 2014. The new company is now Northern Parking Services (North East) Ltd which was incorporated on February 10th 2014 so that was the company in existence at the time of the alleged incidents. They ARE connected since they have the same MD though he didn’t (officially) j

I do overthink things - it's basic to my nature! The post above also reminds me of something I've long wanted to explore - the 'contract'. I've often wondered how they establish the basis for a 'contract' where free parking is involved since the basic premise of contract law is 'the consideration' i.e. the exchange of money and where free parking is involved, that consideration does not exist. I think it's largely irrelevant now (since the advent of the Beavis case) and now that I've written it, I also have a vague recollection that a barrister friend of min

Since posting, I've found another mention of a 2017 Cross St. ticket coming back to life yesterday (11th) and wonder how many more?

Apologies if this has already been covered elsewhere but I haven't found a direct answer so here's my question. Both my daughter and my partner have today each received a Letter of Claim from NPS. Both refer to 'incidents' in 2017 - my daughter's in March and my partner's in April. I remember these only vaguely but can't remember what (if any) action we took. I remember my partner's more clearly because in their PCN where they claimed she'd overstayed (Cross Street, Long Eaton) there was something drastically wrong with their 'evidence'.
