Do not try to telephone them, everything in writing.
The drivers ID must not be given at all.
As above read that information first and come back.

Please read and act on https://www.ftla.uk/private-parking-tickets/read-this-first-private-parking-charges-forum-guide/, and follow its instructions to post what you have received.
Moorside’s letters are often woeful, failing to meet the standard described at https://www.justice.gov.uk/courts/procedure-rules/civil/rules/pd_pre-action_conduct#6.1,
The letter should include the basis on which the claim is made, a summary of the facts, what the claimant wants from the defendant, and if money, how the amount is calculated;
You imply there are more details on your letter, though. But it may be that it’s the usual rubbish, “you owe us £170”.
You should also search the forum for similar letters and the responses to them.

Hi all,
I am new here and looking for advice.
I have received a letter before claim from Moorside Legal stating that I owe £170 to UK Parking Administration.
I do not recall receiving any letters from UK Parking administration. If I did then I would have disputed this at the time.
I have signed into the Moorside portal but it does not provide any evidence. It only has a list of multiple sums of money owed from August 2023 which adds up to £170.
They do not seem to have an email on the portal either. There is an option to complete a reply form or to call them.
I am not sure how to proceed as I do not know why they are requesting money. The only thing I can think of is that UK Parking administration used to own a car park at the gym I attend. The gym had a deal with them that we get 2 hours of free parking. One time the iPad that is used to put registration in was broken, and the staff requested that we wrote our Registration down on a paper at the front desk which I did.
Any advice with how to proceed would be greatly appreciated.
