I received a Claim Form issued on 19 Jul 2021. The claimant is ParkingEye Limited. 

 

The alleged offence took place on 22/10/2019. The particulars of claim read as follows:

 

1.Claim for monies outstanding from the Defendant in relation to a Parking Charge (reference xxxxxx/xxxxxx) issued on 25/10/2019.

 

2.The signage clearly displayed throughput University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff - Staff 4, Heath Park, Cardiff, CF14 4XW states that this is private land, managed by ParkingEye Ltd, and that it is subject to terms and consitions, including authorisation being required for parking, by which those who park agree to be bound (the contract).

 

3.ParkingEye's ANPR system captured vehicle xxxxx entering and leaving the site on 22/10/2019, and parking without authorisation. Pursuant to Sch 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012, notice has been given to the registered keeper, making them liable for the Parking Charge payable upon breach."

 

As they claim the PCN was issued in October 2019, I do not recall receiving anything in the post. I did receive a Final notice of Debt Recovery from dcbl, demanding £140. However, it had no reference on the letter so I just ignored it.

 

I logged on to ParkingEye's portal to access photographic evidence and did not manage to find the complete PCN, however, there were just two pictures of the car with a time stamp (please see the attached files). I have copied the parking charge details from ParkingEye's website:

 

Parking charge details

Parking Charge Reference: xxxxxx
 
Vehicle Registration Number: xxxxxx
 
Contravention date/time: 22/10/2019 19:41:52
 
Contravention location: University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff - Staff 4  Heath Park, Cardiff, CF14 4XW
 
Stay duration: 0 hours 30 minutes
Allowed duration: 0 hours 10 minutes
 
Status: Open
 
Outstanding balance: £155.00 (Please allow 24 hours after payment for it to be reflected on the balance)
 
I do not recall parking there, however I may have entered the car on multiple occasions on the day to turn the car around.

I visited the car park yesterday to take some pictures (please see the second attached file)

 

I have completed the AOS on moneyclaim.gov.uk

 

I am looking to file my defence based on the following points:

 

  1. The photographic evidence supplied by the claimant does not prove the car parked in the above mentioned car park. It just shows the front and the back of the car with two different time stamps.
  2. The notice which states that it is a staff car park is located right at the end of the car park, which is not noticeable as you approach the car park and the board seems fairly new to me, the claimant has not provided any proof to suggest that it was there when the alleged alleged offence took place?
  3. As they have allowed a 10 minute grace period, a £70 charge for 20 minutes is unreasonable.

 

Any advice would be much appreciated!! Thanks a lot.

Sorry, I do not have any other document other than this (please see the attached file)

 

I have not moved or changed car in a while. I may have received the original PCN but thrown it away, but as it was over a year ago, I have no recollection.

 

Many thanks

There was nothing other than that letter from DCBL before the Claimform, that doesn't look like a compliant Letter Before claim

We could do with some help from you.

a dca cant send a letter of claim, only their mates at DCB legal can on behalf of PE.

something weird going on here is you've never gotten numerous letters prior to the claim.

 

might be worthy in this instant to send PE an sar.

 

as for the claim, you've done AOS so now need to send PE this:

Really appreciate your continuous help.

 

I have sent the CPR 31 request in the post today and obtained a proof of postage. 

 

In terms of preparing the defence, should I refer to the one posted on this page?

 

Many thanks

ParkingEye have obviously failed to respond to my CPR 31 request. Below is the defence that I have prepared:

 

Defence:

 

The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim vague and are generic in nature which fails to comply  with CPR 16.4.  The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made.

 

1. Paragraph 2 is denied. It s denied that I ever entered into a contract to breach any terms and conditions of the stated private land.

 

2. Paragraph 2 and 3  are denied.  As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance.  The Claimant was only contracted to provide car park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. 

 

3. It is admitted that Defendant is the recorded keeper of the vehicle. The claimant is not in a position to state if I was the driver at the time.

 

4.  It is denied that the Claimant’s signage is capable of creating a legally binding contract.

 

5. Not withstanding the above on 28 July 2021 I made a request pursuant to CPR 31.14 for the claimant to disclose its necessary evidence in support if its claim. To this date the claimant has failed to respond to said request

 

Therefore the claimant is put to strict proof to evidence its cause of action and contractual costs and what loss it has suffered. 

 

The Claimant is further put to strict proof that it has sufficient proprietary interest in the land, or that it has the necessary authorisation from the landowner to issue parking charge notices, and to pursue payment by means of litigation.

 

The Particulars of Claim is denied in its entirety.  It is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the recovery or any recovery at all.

 

 

Really appreciate all the help. Many Thanks!!

Well their NTK is compliant meaning that they can transfer the liability to pay the charge from the driver to the Keeper.  And how ridiculous to suggest that their contract with the land owner  is largely not relevant when if there is a fault with it, there is no contract so there can be no breach of said contract.

 

Cardiff Council have an unusual way of arranging planning permission results. They do them weekly so as we don't know when let alone if, planning has been granted. The only way now is to contact the planning department and ask them if PE have planning permission for their signs and ANPR cameras under the Town and Country [advertisements ] regulations .

I rang the council, however, they said that all the planning enquiries are dealt through email only. Sent them an email after and still waiting for them to respond. May fire a reminder email if I do not receive by end of Monday.

 

Also received the notice of N180 directions questionnaire in the post and below is how I plan to respond:

 

C1 Do you agree that the small claims track is the appropriate track for this case? (yes)

 

D1 At which county court hearing centre would you prefer the small claims hearing to take place and why? (Cardiff)

 

D2 Are you asking for the court's permission to use the written evidence of an expert? (no)

 

D3 How many witnesses, including yourself, will give evidence on your behalf at the hearing? (0)

 

D4 Are there any days within the the next six months when you, an expert or a witness will not be available to attend court for the hearing? ( 17-25 November)

 

Will you be using an interpreter at the hearing either for yourself or for a witness? (no)

 

Any help would be much appreciated!! Thanks a lot

Hi.

 

That's quite a big ask to have a WS ready by tomorrow. Have you made a start on it yourself and can we see it please?

 

I notice in their no 4 they say there was no permit in your name but you were in a staff car park. What can you tell us about that?

Hi everyone,

 

Thank you soo much for the help that I have been offered so far. The last day for me to send the witness statement is tomorrow. I know it is lastminute, but a lot has been going on in my life and I have been unable to focus on anything and I would greatly appreciate any help/feedback. However, since my last post, I have received Witness statements from PE and also reply to my defence. I have attached the whole scanned bundle. 

 

I am looking to argue on the following points:

  1. that the claimant has failed to prove that the vehicle was there for the time that they are claiming it was there for
  2. a close family friend was admitted in the hospital and we were delivering food to the friend and had to make multiple visits to the hospital and hence multiple visits were made to the car park too as that is the closest point of entry into the hospital building and also allows the room to manoeuvre the car as it is no entry besides that point.
  3. £70 parking charge for an alleged 30 minutes offence is disproportionate

Any help would be much appreciated!

 

Your name is showing on pages 62 and 73 of the pdf. It's best to remove those.

 

Could you confirm that you have time to work on this today? I've asked a couple of questions and you haven't said anything yet.

I will start on the WS today and aim to finish it in the early hours of tomorrow morning. I do not have a permit for the hospital, however, as mentioned above, I entered the car park multiple times on the same evening to turn the vehicle around.

 

Thanks
