Only reply so far has been from Smart Parking - standard reply saying the claim is outside of 28 days and its been passed to DRP

Thanks - in the post this morning!

Will something as simple as that do?

So any suggestions for how I should respond? Just the standard letter from the post above?

PDF attached ntkscan.pdf Done a fair bit of reading on here and seen a few people get these cancelled lately, going to draft a letter tonight, this one looks closest to my situation? Obviously removing the bit about them not knowing I wasn't the driver and changing it for something along the lines of them not providing me with any information to help me establisher the driver and settle the matter.

Hi all. I've attached what was my first letter from Smart, didn't get an NTK in the first place. Emailed in from this asking for more details, no admission of driver etc. Didn't get a satisfactory response so ignored everything up to the recent shoddy LBC See below: 1 The date of infringement? 29th October 2019 2 Have you yet appealed to the parking company yet? [Y/N?] Only asked for more details via website as NTK wasn't received and informed Smart that multiple drivers have access to car and 2 drivers use same carpark. if you have then please post up whatever you sent and how you sent it and the date you sent it, suitably redacted. [as a PDF- follow the upload guide] has there been a response? Short letter saying that as 'per the BPA code of practice appeals must be submitted before 28 days' however it wasn't an appeal, just a request for more information please post it up as well, suitably redacted. [as a PDF- follow the upload guide] If you haven't appealed yet - ,.........DONT ! seek advice on your topic first. have you received a Notice To Keeper? (NTK) [must be received by you between 29-56 days] NO what date is on it NA Did the NTK provide photographic evidence? Probably, but don't know [scan up BOTHSIDES to ONE PDF of the PCN and your NTK - follow the upload guide] 3 Did the NTK mention Schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 (PoFA) [Y/N?] NA 4 If you appealed after receiving the NTK, did the parking company give you any information regarding the further appeals process? [it is well known that parking companies will reject any appeal whatever the circumstances] NA 5 Who is the parking company? Smart 6. where exactly [Carpark name and town] did you park? Goose Green, Altrincham

Absolutely no issue with writing arsey letters, its a pastime of mine. Just want to make sure its solid! In terms of docs I didn't actually get a NTK as they'd sent it to an old address, the appeal would have simply asked for more info re photos via the form on the smart parking site (I'm certain I saved the copy somewhere) and the only other communication was a reply saying it was over 28 days so they wouldn't send. Will scan and upload what I have shortly.

I have received a letter from CST Law, instructed by DRP - the agent of Smart Parking Limited. The letter before claim is in relation to a parking charge issued in October 2019. The parking charge is in relation to parking in a Smart Parking Ltd car park which was used when visiting a gym. The gym issued free parking providing a correct reg plate was inputed into a meter within the gym, which may or may have not happened at the time of this alleged charge. Both my partner and I have access to the car in question, and both used the same gym multiple times per week. At the time of being issued the charge, I asked for photo evidence to clarify who the drive was at the time of the charge, none was sent. So as far as I am currently concerned, I am not liable for the charge as I have no idea who was driving at the time, and my request for evidence to establish this did not get a response. Can anyone advice a proper response? There is a reply form with the letter, which I'm yet to complete. I do not see how simple ownership of a car constitutes entering into a contract, especially if I wasn't the drive or in the car at the time the charge was issued. Thanks
