Hi there,
The driver received a Parking Charge Notice at Roehampton University from First Parking LLP. The driver parked in a bay that stated it was for 'Roehampton Maintenance'. There was no indication that the driver could be fined for parking here The reason for the fine seems very unreasonable and wondering if it can be appealed or get away with not paying this ticket as the reasoning they have put is for 'causing obstruction'. There isn't actually any indication of how the driver caused an obstruction and so how can they prove this? Images of the ticket the driver received that was attached to windscreen below. I would appreciate any feedback. Thanks This post has been edited by Am15: Sun, 5 Dec 2021 - 22:24 |

Definitely don't say "yes" to the driver question, but only click "no" if you actually weren't the driver of course, lying in writing would be very unwise (don't tell us on here either way).
If the only options are yes/no you might be better sending an appeal by post. QUOTE Within the appeal should I also state that there is no legal requirement to name the driver at the time and I will not be doing so ? Yes you can mention this

Continue with you are the registered keeper. Don't let on that you know more about this then they think by not saying you don't have to name the driver What's the couple of lines that are associated with the "I was the ddiver " statement If you are doing this online then complete on day 28. With their 28 days that takes you up to day 56, the limit for them to send a POFA compluant NTK. Thanks for that! The line underneath just states : When assessing your appeal, First Parking may share your appeal information with our client. First Parking may also conduct a search with a credit bureau. Definitely don't say "yes" to the driver question, but only click "no" if you actually weren't the driver of course, lying in writing would be very unwise (don't tell us on here either way). If the only options are yes/no you might be better sending an appeal by post. QUOTE Within the appeal should I also state that there is no legal requirement to name the driver at the time and I will not be doing so ? Yes you can mention thisOk thanks for that. It looks like its not a required answer anyway as there is no * This post has been edited by Am15: Sat, 18 Dec 2021 - 22:52 |

ostell's post crossed with mine, on reflection they make a good point re. not letting on you know as much as you do, so I'd agree with their recommendation of leaving out the "no requirement to name the driver" statement.
Ok thanks for that. It looks like its not a required answer anyway as there is no * Perfect - just make sure there's definitely an option to leave it blank (ie it doesn't default to one option) This post has been edited by DWMB2: Sat, 18 Dec 2021 - 23:16 -------------------- Useful Links (for private parking charges):

What is the best course of action now? Appeal to POPLA. But please post your appeal here first - I think this is winnable... -------------------- RK=Registered Keeper, OP=Original Poster (You!), CoFP=Conditional Offer of Fixed Penalty, NtK=Notice to Keeper, NtD=Notice to Driver
PoFA=Protection of Freedoms Act, SAC=Safety Awareness Course, NIP=Notice of Intended Prosecution, ADR=Alternative Dispute Resolution PPC=Private Parking Company, LBCCC=Letter Before County Court Claim, PII=Personally Identifiable Information, SAR=Subject Access Request Private Parking - remember, they just want your money and will say almost anything to get it. |

Wait ! The object is to make them fail to issue a NTK.. Only another 26 days to go.
You can take their mind off it by objecting to the rejection |

Update - No NTK was sent but the keeper received a letter from DCBL (sent to address that the vehicle is not registered at but one keeper provided when appealing, don't know if this makes a difference?). Link to letter:

No ntk was RECEIVED. You don't know f they sent one.
No, addrsss makes no odds. In fact you'd want this to be the case. Why would you cough up when. They can't hold the keeper liable? |

On the back of the letter it states that liability can be transferred to registered keeper. Link to image of letter - https://imgur.com/a/s7vWYvW
So how can this be disputed? |

Please don't paraphrase. It says CAN be transferred. Not that it does. Also, dcbl haven't got a clue
You know why no ntk being received is important, keeper liability is impossible without one. Have yiu checked with the dvla that no access was made to your records? |

Apologies I'm new to this, thanks for clarifying.
How can I check if they have requested access from DVLA? Is it just a case of calling them? |

I have received confirmation that no access was requested for keepers details. I have also since received another letter from dcbl
https://imgur.com/a/kGQ9V4J What would be the next steps now if legal proceedings were taken? |

Respond back to dcbl stating that, as their client and they are aware, one requirement of keepe liability is to request keeper data from the SoS in guise of the dvla. As confirmed by the dvla, your client failed to do so. As such, your statements to the effect that I am liable as keeper are a misrepresentation.
Cancel the pcn or contact the driver, but cease contact with me. Continuing to contact me is a breach of the protection from harassment act, as you are completely aware I have no liability in this matter |

Would it best to respond in writing via post as opposed to telephone? Also what is the SoS? Always writing. If you do it by telephone, what record do you have of what you said? SoS = Secretary of State. As The Rookie asked, what happened with your POPLA appeal? -------------------- Useful Links (for private parking charges):
