  • Parking charge notice issues over 60 days of incident.

    I've received a Parking Charge Notice by a newly formed company (Formed early this year) which is also owned by the Landlord of the site where the offence took place.
    The Parking company have recently sent through a flurry of these for parking in a parking space allocated to a business which is closed at the weekend but opposite the business i was visiting. (Total stay time just over an hour). I believe they also own and rent out the building which I was visiting.
    The business i was visiting has some allocated parking about 4 spaces but they all get filled up.
    My first approach was to contact the landowner and appeal to them but as they own the parking company too then i'm thinking they have no desire to do anything.

    Given the parking company are a member of the ICP am i right in thinking that their tems state that a notice must be issued within 28 days of the event.
    If i appeal it should i state the IPC rules or use the standard template of:

    Dear Sirs,
    I have just received your Notice to Keeper xxxxx for vehicle VRM xxxx

    You have failed to comply with the requirements of Schedule 4 of The Protection Of Freedoms Act 2012 namely, but not limited to, failing to deliver the notice within the relevant period of 14 days as prescribed by section 9 (4) of the Act. You cannot, therefore, transfer liability for the alleged charge from the driver at the time to me, the keeper.

    There is no legal requirement to name the driver at the time and I will not be doing so.

    Any further communication with me on this matter, apart from confirmation of no further action and my details being removed from your records, will be considered vexatious and harassment. This includes communication from any Debt Collection companies you care to instruct.

    Yours etc
    We've received a couple of these now for different dates. Also a fair number of people have also received for visiting the same place at the weekend.
    Is it worth trying to fight the one which is in date? Or should I just suck it up and pay it.

    Thank you for reading.

    If there was no windscreen ticket AND the notice was received after day 14 then send that appeal

    Edit your post so that the identity of the driver cannot be inferred. The driver is always liable.

    Here is POFA that can make the keeper liable: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga...dule/4/enacted

      Thank you for the advice. Silly question but I see no option to edit a post? I can't see an edit option anywhere.
