Private parking tickets / Re: x2 PCN from G24 Ltd. Unauthorized parking
« on: October 27, 2025, 07:40:03 am »

The notice to keeper has been issued within the relevant time frames outside of the Protection of Freedoms Act.

And there you have the fatal flaw in their scam attempt to extract money from you, as the Keeper. As they do not know the identity of the driver, because their NtK has not been issued in compliance of PoFA, they cannot transfer liability for the charge to you, the known Keeper.

I wouldn’t bother with an IAS appeal unless you have time to spare and don’t mind flogging a dead horse. My advice is to ignore all powerless debt recovery letters and come back if/when you receive a Letter of Claim (LoC).

Hello. Received Letter of claim. Please advise what to do next

File and ignore. It's a Letter of Claim from said solicitors that you need to look out for.
This advice has not changed.

Thank you. Noted on above. Will send them what you wrote.

Along with the Notice to Hirer did you receive

Quote
(a)a statement signed by or on behalf of the vehicle-hire firm to the effect that at the material time the vehicle was hired to a named person under a hire agreement;

(b)a copy of the hire agreement; and

(c)a copy of a statement of liability signed by the hirer under that hire agreement.
?

Of course you didn’t, but this is a legal requirement to transfer liability from the unknown driver to the known hirer.

Did you, therefore, identify the driver in your appeal?

These are important questions if your obvious point of being “exempt” isn’t valid. Although this appears pretty clear-cut.

No to all of A, B and C. When they sent the letter and as I clearly had evidence regarding the exemption, I admitted that I was the driver.

Should I upload all the letters received, or atleast the first and last one?

Did you receive a Notice to Hirer sent to you in your own name?
If so, what else came with it, probably nothing.
If not, how do you know about the PCN?

If nothing else, we probably need to see the letters you have received. https://www.ftla.uk/private-parking-tickets/read-this-first-private-parking-charges-forum-guide/

It was notice to hirer. Don't remember when exactly but as soon as i received it, i appealed straightaway because i already had proof that the vehicle was exempt

Hello everyone.
Bit of a long read.
22/02/25 I had to use a hire van to help a family member relocate. At her flat, there were parking restrictions: registered users only.

Anyone not registered, normal procedure is to email the managing agency who would mark the vehicle as exempt.
I emailed the agency and received confirmation email from UKPC on 24/02/25 confirming that the vehicle is exempt.

https://ibb.co/p6LJybhS

If the vehicle was exempt, why did they send a PCN in the first place!

Come end of April, i received Final reminder PCN, presume because it went first to the hire company and then circled back to me. I appealed, which apparently got rejected because I didn't appeal in time.

They kept on sending letters every month which I ignored but today they sent a Letter of claim.

What to do next. Please advise.

Thank you all for your replies.
Appealed for the PCN and also raised complaint @ DVLA.

See reply #2 above.

Would they not ask for details of the driver if keeper denies the charges?

Read https://www.ftla.uk/private-parking-tickets/read-this-first-private-parking-charges-forum-guide/

Edit your post so that you do not identify the driver, as per the linked guide.

A PCN issued on 8 May will have been deemed served on 12 May which is greater than 14 days after both parking events.

The known keeper of the car can not be held liable for the actions of the unknown driver. See https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2012/9/schedule/4

You will appeal on this basis, and I bet someone will be along with an appropriate form of words for this shortly.

G24 will reject your appeal, the IAS will probably do so as well if you can be bothered with them, but they won’t stand a chance in court if they are stupid enough to try.

Thank you. Edited.
Could you please elaborate on what basis exactly to appeal, perhaps there is a template?

Private parking tickets / x2 PCN from G24 Ltd. Unauthorized parking
« on: May 20, 2025, 08:33:03 am »
Hello all,
Recently driver received 2 pcn's from G24, unauthorized parking at Sportsdirect car park.

Apparently they have a 2 hour limit. However, Everlast gym in the same parking owned by Sportsdirect has a 3 hour limit. The driver visited the gym 24 times in the last 2 months, always stayed over 2 hours and all of a sudden they decided to send 2 PCNS. One of the days driver stayed over 3 hours because the gym was busier than usual and after the session decided to grab a smoothie & chill in their lounge and then went shopping in sportsdirect.

Makes sense if a customer overstays past 2 hours but the driver wasn't technically a sportsdirect customer, using a paid membership at the gym and surely its down to the driver if he/she want to stay there for 2 hours or 5 hours. Driver's contract with gym doesn't state that they have to finish their sessions within 2 hours.
