Private parking tickets / Debt Recovery group in contact but no PCN received
« on: May 07, 2025, 07:39:26 pm »
Today I received two letters from a debt collection group claiming that four years ago my car was issued two separate parking charges, one day apart. The letters I received today erroneously claim that I have ignored previous attempts to contact me, and now they, the debt collection agency, are giving me 14 days from the date printed on the letter to pay their fine of £160 per letter (which are dated 12 days ago).
This is the first contact I have received about this. I did not receive a parking charge notice four years ago, let alone two. I have received no contact from the parking company at any point.
I moved house 6 months prior to the alleged parking notices, but still had Royal Mail post redirection in place at the time of the alleged parking offences.
The debt collection group refused to talk to me, and directed me back to the parking company. The parking company have an automatic message on their phone line saying that all appeals and queries need to be logged on their online form. However, the online form requires reference number and number plate to be entered. When I do so, it simply states "sorry your details haven't been recognised" advising to email an email address. When I sent an email to the given email address, I received an automatic reply that the inbox isn't regularly monitored and appeals shouldn't be submitted to that email address. The parking company website is currently being updated and states that it hopes to be up and running in "Spring 2025".
I can't seem to find a way to contact the parking company, and the debt collection company refuse to talk to me. How do I appeal?
Many thanks in advance.
