Hi,
I received a PCN from Civil Enforcement Ltd, £60-£100 for 12 minute over stay in the car park. I'm not denying I stayed longer, albeit accidentally. As it was around 5pm when I left and the shops were closing their reasons for the capped time period for parking ie to keep spaces clear for shoppers, is invalid in this case.
In respects of rejecting the PCN, the small print refers to 'England and Wales' but doesn't give any information about what to do should you receive the PCN in Scotland. I've read many of the posts and understand that PCN's in any case are unlawful and cannot be enforced by this company.
I would prefer not to ignore the charge, perhaps I should? So what advice am I asking for?
- Should I write to them asking for POPLA, which only applies to England and Wales?
- Should I write asking what is the procedure in Scotland should I follow if I want to challenge their notice, as there is no information referring to this in their paperwork?
- Should I ignore it, do they have any jurisdiction in Scotland - and plead ignorance of receiving any said notice?
Any other suggestion would be appreciated
I think I may also drop a letter to Next, Costa Coffee, M&S, Pet World and New Look to ask if they are happy that whilst shoppers spend money in their shops, are they aware that parasites in the way of CEL are praying off their customers.
I'm disappointed that the DVLA gave out my personal details, to this company, I thought it was only the police who could ask for this information.
If CEL want to make money, they should up front and honest, install ticket machine's so people are aware what the deal is.
Sorry for the elongated email - and thanks for your help in anticipation. Roadster
