Private parking tickets / Re: Alliance Parking PCN – No Permit – Caer Street, Swansea
« on: February 22, 2026, 08:28:05 pm »
Hi All
I have received another reply, and now I am getting quite concerned.
Whilst they have responded - by email - I have not received the actual notice to keeper or the PCN they have referred to in the text of this email.
I'm not sure now whether these Mooreside are a professional outfit or not.
Can anyone please assist - do I basically advise, until you provide the original NTK I will not respond further?

We write in relation to the above matter.
Please find attached the PCN, which was issued in accordance with Schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012. It was affixed to the vehicle’s windscreen on the date of the contravention for the following reason: “Not displaying a valid permit for inspection”.
By entering and parking the vehicle on our client's private land, you agreed to enter into a contract with our client and to be bound by the terms and conditions of that contract. The terms and conditions were clearly displayed in prominent places within the car park. Due to your failure to comply with the terms and conditions, our client has issued the PCN therefore if we are instructed to issue a claim the reason would be for Unpaid parking charges/breach of contract.
Considering the evidence, we are satisfied that the PCN has been issued in line with industry standards and is compliant with the International Parking Community’s (IPC) code of practice. The signage of the car park also complies with the International Parking Community’s Code of Practice.
Having reviewed our client’s systems, we can see no appeal was made and we must advise that all appeal avenues have now expired.
It is unclear why you would need to inspect any agreement between our client and the landowner as you are not party to that agreement, nor could it aid your dispute or any potential defence.
Please be advised that the original amount of the PCN was £100.00. As outlined in the notice, a reduced amount of £60.00 would have been accepted as full and final settlement if payment had been received within 14 days from the date of issue. Unfortunately, as no payment was received within that time frame, the opportunity to pay the reduced amount has now expired. As a result of continued non-payment and additional charges, the balance has increased and now stands at £170.00.
The additional charge which has been levied on your Parking Charge of £70 is the amount set out in both the British Parking Association and International Parking Community Codes of Practice as the amount which may be added to a Parking Charge when a Parking Charge remains unpaid and when further recovery is required. Our client is a member of the International Parking Community which is a government approved Accredited Trade Association (ATA) for Private Parking. Our client adheres to the ATA’s Code of Practice. The £70 does not represent the cost of recovery but is a reasonable amount in relation to the Parking Charge amount, in order to encourage early payment of the Parking Charge without the need for debt recovery. It is a fair amount set by our client’s government-approved Accredited Trade Association Code of Practice. There are however also costs incurred by our client in relation to debt recovery services.
