@aldiuk Parkingeye and Aldi

[myhandle97]

Some years after having my own run in with ParkingEye at a car park for a local Aldi (and other stores) I am hoping to assist a family member with their own PCN.

 

In my own case I was driving my wife's car, and after what had reached the point of harassment of my wife by PE I contacted Aldi who were able to have the PCN cancelled.

 

This time Aldi are as yet unwilling to cancel the PCN, so I will need to appeal online with PE and no doubt then go down the POPLA route.

 

This is for an overstay of around 40 minutes in an otherwise free car park, will an appeal to POPLA on the grounds of GPEOL win at POPLA ? No receipts retained. There are 4 shops at the retail site.

 

This relative has been a longtime shopper with Aldi and has never overstayed before, and probably will not ever again after this episode.

 

Happy to reveal the store location if it helps. Signage at the site is not brilliant but if a GPEOL appeal will win then is there any need to start factoring all of that in ? Seems possible there is no planning permission for the specific signage too.

 

thanks,

As many on here will tell you, appealing will identify your relative as the driver. Possibly better to wait until they send the NTK, as many PPCs fall foul of the law at that stage. Others will advise
