Private parking tickets / Re: CE Ltd Rejected My Appeal
« on: November 09, 2025, 11:12:41 am »
Thanks very much for this. I've searched the forum and it appears most people advise offering £0 at the mediation, saying that it's unlikely the case will go to court.

However, considering that CE is using in-house legal representation, should I take a different course if it's more likely that it does go to court?

I would much rather not pay anything, but I also don't really want this to go to court and experience the added stress.

Would it be wise to prepare to settle?

Hello, just an update...

Still no reply from CEL providing the full name of the signatory of the Statement of Truth.

I also filled in the Directions Questionnaire (thanks very much for the help) and I've got a mediation appointment this upcoming Tuesday.

Would appreciate any advice on how I should approach it...

Thanks for this, I received a copy of CELs Directions Questionnaire 2 days ago and sent the email to the email address listed on that (legal@ce-service.co.uk)

They still haven't acknowledged receipt...Both the email and the letter were sent and dated Monday 29 Sept 2025. I guess now I must wait...

Also, do I need to fill in a DQ too, and if so, am I ok using the n180 form from the gov.uk website here and I guess emailing it? https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/form-n180-directions-questionnaire-small-claims-track

Heres the DQ they sent: https://imgur.com/a/QJTvgMD

Or would I just wait for another letter that specifically requests I do so? Thanks.

What if they don't acknowledge receipt?
Is it worth putting this in letter form and posting it to their registered address in Office Horton House,
Exchange Flags, Liverpool L2 3PF?

Hoping someone acknowledges the email and it's not left unseen...

Wow, thanks so much for this. Was trying to get this sent off but the email address (legal@cel.co.uk) isn't valid.

Gonna try to scour the web for another email address associated with CEL and will come back with an update.

Sorry, that would be a S. Wilson, 'Head of Legal'

Thanks, I guess I just have to wait to hear back from them now...

Hi, thanks for this defence, I've just submitted it online via money claim.gov

Do you think this will go to court? (I'm trying not to panic).

Also sorry for not providing an update. Basically, POPLA rejected my appeal, and I believe I may have received a Letter of Claim but I don't really remember (unhelpful, sorry).

Here's the POPLA response: https://imgur.com/a/VsyGCCH

Private parking tickets / Letter from HM Courts & Tribunals Service

Hi all,

I received this letter from HM Courts & Tribunals Service- do I need to reply or is this not an official court document? Would appreciate any help.

Fyi, here is my previous post on getting a PCN from CE Ltd (I only started a new post bc it wouldn't let me attach this letter to a reply https://www.ftla.uk/private-parking-tickets/ce-ltd-rejected-my-appeal/msg61957/#msg61957.

Private parking tickets / Re: Stung by formerly free car park
« on: May 23, 2025, 05:45:47 pm »
Thanks for this. Jeff is indeed the keeper, not the driver. He won't be identifying the driver.

Apologies for my ignorance, could I ask how the PCN is not PoFA compliant? I think this might the strongest argument to go with for an inevitable appeal (if a complaint to the landowner is unsuccessful...)

For now, I guess we try and find out who the landlord is...

Hi all,

In a bit of a pickle.

One of my friends, Jeff, sometimes spends a few hours studying in Caffe Nero and the adjacent library in Milton Keynes Kingston.

A few weeks ago, Jeff did parked in the car park right next to the library (which allows for free, unlimited parking).

It was only on his return to his vehicle around 4.5 hours later that he realised new signs have been erected restricting parking to 4 hours.

Images of PCN and signage below. As he entered the car park, there was no signage when turning in (see image 4). More images of car park here: https://imgur.com/a/1rBmnFG

Now he's received this fine in the post...and is wondering how he can appeal, considering that Minster Baywatch have not breached the PPSCoP mandate that 28 days for payment must be counted from the date of receipt, not issue.

He is still considering appealing on grounds of insufficient signage...and has complained to Caffe Nero instore and over the phone to no avail (they claim because it's part of a retail park, they have no relationship with the third party PPC)

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks for this! I'll upload it as a response (along with the fact that they don't even bother to check if the driver's registration is accurate lol). Fingers crossed it goes well, I'll keep you updated.

P.S., sorry to be a bother, but could you replace your screenshot of the list of car regs with the one I've attached here, as I clearly forgot to blur mine lol

So I submitted my appeal to POPLA, and CE Ltd responded with this today (attached docs). They seem to ignore my claims about PoFA and transfering liability to the keeper one day early...

Does anyone have any advice? POPLA says I have 7 days to respond and I don't know what else there is to say other than what I've already written!
