Author Topic: Euro Car Parks - Final Notification - Brockhill County Park, Hythe  (Read 84 times)

Circle87 and 8 Guests are viewing this topic.

Driver parked up at Brockhill County Park in Hythe. Some kind lady gave her paid parking sticker to the driver as it still had a couple of hours left on it, although the ticket did have the lady's reg plate on it. The driver then left the park.

This notice is the first and only notice we've recieved about this matter and it was delivered today!? It also mentions a discounted rate but doesnt mention what that rate is or was.

I feel this is highly unfair and also quite disproportionately aggressive to the situation.

Please may i ask what the best course of action is, and if any details require redacting? Or if you need any further information.

Many thanks.

The reminder is next to useless for us.

Sorry to be blunt!

You need to post up the original PCN.

That's the thing,I haven't received one. This is the only notice I have!! There is no physical notice plonked on my car. There is no photo of my car. There is no other letter or notification! This is the only thing I've got and it arrived yesterday.

Do I request a copy of the original?

Is the land covered by byelaws?
If it is, and the driver is not identified, then Euro Car Parks can’t hold the registered keeper liable.

You can use a Subject Access Request to Euro Car Parks to request all the information they hold that is personal to you.

Also, read https://www.ftla.uk/private-parking-tickets/read-this-first-private-parking-charges-forum-guide/ on what to redact and what not.

Thank you for your reply.

I am not sure if the land is covered by byelaws or not. How would one find this out?

I will request an SAR to Euro Car Parks but what would one do with this information?

Many thanks in advance.

I understand about requesting an SAR now:
Sending a Subject Access Request to Euro Car Parks to obtain everything they have, including the original PCN.

Once I've had a reply I'll come back here and post the original PCN.

That’s called an exercise for the reader. I will post something so you could follow up the leads in this.

I've had a look on that link and there is absolutely nothing there about any byelaws.
I've also extended my research extensively and KCC doesn't appear to have any byelaws in place for Brockhill Park. There are byelaws for a couple of places in the next town over, but nothing for Brockhill Park.
I challenge you, nay, encourage you, to prove me wrong.

I'll get to sending a SAR to Euro Car Parks and will update this thread when I have a reply.

Additionally, I have a redacted version of the notification letter but I cannot edit my original post with the URL so I will pointless link it here:



Thank you.

Just wondering, to obtain and SAR which option is most suited? I was thinking "General Enquiry"? Or "Appeal"? I don't want them to take forever to get back to me because this will just go further and further and I want to appeal it. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

You write to their Data Protection Officer asking for all personal information.
There are examples here and templates and guidance on the Internet.
You need to provide proof of identity as part of the process.
is just one example
