Hi CAG,

 

I received a PCN for an 11-minute stay in the KFC car park (8:50am - 9:01am) on May 30. It seems this place is known to some people on this site. I have completed the questionnaire information and attached a pdf of the PCN. The PCN was received on June 15, presumably a little late as it's a lease car and the paperwork arrived via the lease company.

 

I was not aware of the car park restrictions and briefly parked up to drink a coffee (purchased from the drive-through McDonald's, next door). For an 11-minute stay at a time when the KFC was shut I find the fine of £100 (£60 if paid within 14-days) excessive and any assistance is most appreciated. 

 

Thanks

Hi, welcome to CAG.

 

Thank you for posting up the information, it will help us to advise you. I see it's Parking Eye again and by the way, it isn't a fine, it's a speculative invoice to us.

 

They're on a sticky wicket with 11 minutes I'd say, see what the others think when they get here.

 

Best, HB

11 minute stay, they have to give a minimum 10 minutes Grace period, Usually signage trips them up, as well, So they have a Prohibition of anyone parking outside KFC opening hours.  is the site Signege clear and easily readable.  Don't appeal the Team will be along with further advice soon.

We could do with some help from you.

Is it me or is this the second invoice PE have spat out, that I have seen, that doesn't say what the alleged breach is?

Well spotted!

 

I wonder if on page 2 they've got "it might have been A, or it could have been B, then again it may have been C" ...

Thanks for the helpful suggestions everyone and thanks for spotting that part of the PCN was missing. I have now attached this so people can see the Parking Charge Information. 

 

I will take a look at the car park signage later today and post pictures on here. In the meantime I will sit tight until/if I receive a letter of claim.

 

Thanks

Well what is it PE, was the stay authorised or unauthorised what is the breach of your fictitious T&C's?

 

They're not even certain of their own T&C's, first they mention 'by ''remaining'' at the car park for longer than the stay authorised OR without authorisation'' Which is it?

 

And then if you remain in the car park for longer than zero hours and zero minutes, so you can't even drive through it, then you agree to pay their invoice??

 

They really are thicker than a submarine door.

Hello,

 

I've nipped down to the car park today and taken photos of the signage (attached).

 

There are two entrances to the car park.

 

Image 1 shows the sign for the first entrance.

I entered in the other entrance (image 2) displaying s small yellow sign advising the car park is for the use of KFC customers.

 

Once you enter the car park there is a larger sign with more information (Image 3).

 

This is not visible until you are inside the car park as the sign is facing the opposite way to the other two.

 

Thanks

Well that's it then.

 

You went in the entrance which simply said you had to be a KFC customer, which you intended to be.

 

Once you worked out it was closed and read the signage you promptly left, in all of 11 minutes. 

 

Their signage is rubbish and you've proved it.  Well done on digging up this evidence.

We could do with some help from you.

Hi Everyone,

 

On May 30th 2021 I received a PCN for an 11-minute stay in the KFC Walkden car park (8:50am - 9:01am). See above for details.

 

After receiving the excellent advice on here and not having received a letter of claim from PE I assumed the matter was closed, especially given that it was from over a year ago. However, I have today received a letter from Direct Collection Bailiffs (DCBL) title ‘Notice of Debt Recovery – Unpaid Parking Charge of £170’ and instructed to make a payment within 14-days. 

 

Any advice on how to proceed/react to this letter is gratefully appreciated.

 

Thanks

you ignore them

if you read carefully it says they are not operating as a bailiff

just another powerless DCA whom can never be bailiffs .

Thanks for the previous  advice.

 

Since the letter referred to in my last post, I have received three further letters.

 

The first was a 'final reminder', followed by a 'Final notice of debt recovery'.

 

Today I received the latest titled, 'Notice of intended legal action'.

 

I have not responded to any of these, nor the original ones a year ago.

 

I'm just seeking reassurance that I should continue ignoring these letters from DCBL?

 

Thanks

You said it yourself... I will await a letter of claim from PE themselves.

 

Only the owner of a debt or a solicitor operating on behalf of their stated client - the owner..  can issue a letter of claim.

 

A DCA is not a solicitor.

They are not BAILIFFS

And have 

ZERO legal powers on any debt no matter what it's type 

 

Doesn't hurt to read a few PE PCN threads here too so you answer your own questions now and going forward - CAG is predominantly self help too
