Hi,
I'd be most grateful if I could get some advice regarding a parking charge which occurred on 08-12-2018 in a private car park controlled by 'Parking control management (Uk) Ltd'.
I was in a hire car at the time and did not receive any letter from Parking control management Ltd regarding the alleged parking contravention. Instead, I received an email on 15-01-2019 from the car hire company (Sixt) with a letter (see attached) informing me that they had paid the invoice and taken the money from my card plus an admin fee (£136 in total) as per their terms.
In the past when I have had a parking ticket given in a hire car, the hire car company has given the Parking control company my address and details which meant I could defend the parking notice directly. This is a different car hire company than I usually use and it seems they have a different policy.
They said if I wish to contest it I need to appeal to Parking control management for 'compensation'.
In the past I have cited a failure to include a copy of the hire agreement or NTK with the PCN issuer's correspondence, and the charges have been waived as a result. In this case the PCN issuer has never sent me any correspondence so I guess I can't use that this time?
Any advice on the best way to play this would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
