Free Traffic Legal Advice

Not had any further communication from Moorside lately.
Had a reply from the SRA though who are acting on my complaint email and are looking into Moorside.
Seems I can't really proceed with any action against alliance until we go to court.

Thanks...yeah I also had a phone call that went to voicemail saying they were from BPO so I googled the number (01418462076) which does resolve to BPO but on the "who called me" website its cited as scam calls.  Weird though as the number they give to call is BPOs number and BPO sort of look legit.   Good to know that BPO aren't involved with PCNs.

Update:
had a text from BPO asking me to phone them quoting a ref number.
Am I right inn thinking that Moorside have bailed and sold on the debt to BPO.
If true what is a good course of action?

So things have perked up a bit after the xmas period.
Two things:

I sent a Subject Access request to Alliance parking and received a fairly prompt response.
Included were two new car interior photos in PDF format (in addition to the previously exterior shots) that on first glance appear to show that no parking ticket was displayed.
Given that a ticket was absolutely displayed and easily visible from outside the car there are two possibilities.
1 the photos were digitally altered to hide the presence of the paid ticket receipt or
2 more likely that the photos were angled to hide the ticket.
I will place the original ticket in the car and take photos to check...I am pretty sure it will be possible to take photos that appear to show its not there.
I re-requested the photos from Alliance but in digital format and they replied that I would have to pay for them and in any case they would likely not contain metadata.
The fun part is that if I can convince a magistrate that having paid for a pay and display ticket that I would on the balance of probabilities clearly display the ticket (and I can take photos that showing this is possible and it still be possible for the parking guy to take photos that appear otherwise) then that would make Alliance guilty of Attempted fraud by false representation....and I could counterclaim on that basis (its obviously also a criminal act but harder to prove).

Secondly I had a long email from the APN Group the parent company of Moorside Legal Services Limited saying that the email address for Subject Access requests has now been fixed.
I've sent a request to check if the help@moorside.co.uk email address now works...though its no longer listed on their website!.

Thanks for your replies.
I have made a "subject access request" to Alliance to see exactly what information and photos they have.
I don't think the photos on the PCN are clear enough to be certain that a photo of my displayed ticket was definitely not visible from close to the vehicle.
Luckily I still have the original PCN plus the actual ticket from 3 years ago plus all the letters from Trace and Moorside.
How they thing they can succeed at court when I have the original ticket, the email to Alliance showing the ticket from 3 years ago, is beyond me.
Quite looking forward to going to court, it should be fun.

This is the original PCN

I have been following the other previous recent LBC Moorside thread.
Mine is slightly different in that I paid a ticket and left the car park in time but Alliance are claiming that I didn't display my ticket correctly.
Alliance acknowledged that I paid (after I posted them an image of my ticket) but claimed it was not correctly displayed.
Now 3.5 years letter they have resurrected the PCN and instructed Moorside to claim the outstanding unpaid invoice of £170.
I posted b789 standard response (Response to your Letter of Claim Ref: ) as suggested in the other Moorside thread using the Post office signed for service and it was signed for today at their registered office address in Oldham.
I also emailed a complaint to the SRA and complained about Moorside in an online chat with the ICO.
I have zero intention of paying anyone anything...I would rather go to court and risk losing than pay these **** anything upfront.
So having sent the letter "Response to your Letter of Claim Ref: [reference number]" what would be my next step.
Thanks

I went on the ICO website Live chat for complaints and expressed concerns that the DPO email link at Moorside legal is not being monitored.  Not sure what action will be taken.
Also sent a recorded delivery letter to Moorsides registered address in Oldham..don't expect anything in return but its something that can be presented in court.
