Private parking tickets / Re: If I dispute a money claim and lose, am I likely to have to pay more than the original claim?
« on: June 15, 2024, 02:51:35 pm »
I'm unsure whether they notified the keeper or not regarding cancellation, I could find out.

The keeper is not the one who pays for the parking space, a friend I was visiting at the time is the one who pays for it.

All letters from ELMS are addressed to myself.

I don't recall receiving the Letter of Claim, unfortunately however I cannot say for 100% certainty that I didn't receive it or if I've missplaced it somewhere as I cannot find it alongside the other letters.

I forgot to tag this one on to the previous post which is the Issue of Proceedings from ELMS: https://imgur.com/a/dleThUV

Okay here is what I have, in timeline order:

Email I sent to VCS: https://imgur.com/a/R8WGyT0

Letter from ELMS Legal: https://imgur.com/a/R3OEaOf

Message to VCS from myself through their website, date 19/03/2024: https://imgur.com/a/cTCzhDW (I only have this screenshot of when I sent it)


Other notes:
The keeper didn't give my details to the creditor as they have stated in the Notice to Driver, I did, as shown in my first email to VCS.
The keeper never responded to any of the letters.

I'm aware I've definitely gone about this whole situation in the wrong way, cannot say I'm well versed in a situation like this..

I'll compile a good list of all the details I have alongside photos of all communications etc. when I return home tomorrow.

You're correct. The incident occured in September, not August - dates mixed up.

Stupidly, I contacted the parking company and claimed I was the driver which is why the PCN is in my name..

These images show a PCN - final reminder, which was addressed to the registered keeper, issued on 20/10/2023(this wasn't got hold of however until sometime in late November), and a new PCN - Notice to Driver which is issued to myself on 14/12/2023 after I'd been in contact:

b789, to be clear do you mean replace the new paragraph #2 with the current one or add it on to the end? Like this?: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/uwo5wp0twz5haqdm7zv6n/Amended-defence.pdf?rlkey=al3y0u1n9jcixpyfmv20ll4zt&st=smbp0yw1&dl=0

Thanks b789. I submitted my AoS last thursday but been working away this past week so just been able to edit that document with my details.

Here is a link to the first 5 paragraphs: https://imgur.com/a/3iC262O

I think all the information I've entered is relevant/will help my case, but let me know.

I appreciate you taking a look

Thanks for the replies and advice. I've attached a photo of the claim as requested.

I've not yet done the Acknowledgement of Service but I'll do it now.

I can try to get ahold of what their lease says but it was my partner's roommate's parking spot(they have to pay extra for it) at the time, who has since moved out, but I'll see if she can get any details.

How come it is better to not use MCOL to submit the defence, and how it is done by email instead? Could you point me in the direction of the Template Defence you mentioned also, that would be ace.

Thanks

Private parking tickets / If I dispute a money claim and lose, am I likely to have to pay more than the original claim?

So a PCN I received back in august last year has escalated through the legal department and they've issued me a money claim for £255 inc. £35 for court fee and £50 for legal representative's cost.

I didn't actually personally receive the original PCN until about 3 months after it had happened due to the fact the vehicle I was driving wasn't mine and the owner of the vehicle had recently moved house so the PCN went to his old house.

I emailed the manager of the land where I was parked (car park for flats) asking if he could request to cancel the ticket as I was in a parking bay paid for by the person I was visiting and had permission to park there. I hadn't realised/been told I had to display a permit while I was parked which is why received the ticket.

The manager agreed and emailed the ticket company (Vehicle control services) requesting they cancel the ticket. They refused on the basis that it was not asked within 14 days of the notice, which I never received. I tried contacting them multiple times with no response.

This is the basis of why I want to dispute it.

However, I really cannot afford to pay any more and I don't know how much it could go up by if I do dispute it.


Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
