Subject Access Request can be used to obtain all personal information held on you, including PCNs, and this legislation is applicable in Scotland. From Euro Car Parks. Asking as the registered keeper, ensuring not to identify the driver.

You need to know on what basis you’re being asked for money.

Update your car’s V5C if it’s wrong and you haven’t done so already.

As a forum, we are not familiar with Scottish law, primarily because - unlike in England and Wales - the liability for private parking invoices can not be transferred from the (usually unknown) driver to the registered keeper, because https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2012/9/schedule/4 does not apply in Scotland.

For single instances the advice is usually to ignore debt collectors and let them do their worst.

Your problem may be that they’re tempted to try something for 19 tickets.

There are a few examples if you search the forum, but not very much. See https://www.ftla.uk/private-parking-tickets/scotland-solicitor-letter-threatening-sheriff-court-for-pcn/msg96214/#msg96214, for example. Note that this one particular case eventually led to the claimant backing down, but not immediately.

Has the driver been identified to anyone during the process? Can you post at least one of the PCNs?

I do not know if there is anyone who can provide more detailed advice. I know I can’t. Sorry.
