Thanks for everyone's response.

So would something like this be better in response? Or this asking for to much information?

"I acknowledge receipt of your letter dated 28 July 2026 headed "Final Demand Before Court Action".

Liability is denied.

I have never been served with a Notice to Hirer pursuant to paragraph 14 of Schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 and, prima facie, cannot therefore be held liable as hirer in place of the registered keeper.

If you contend that such a notice was issued, please provide:

A copy of the Notice to Hirer.
Copies of all documents required by paragraphs 13 and 14 of Schedule 4, including the hire agreement and statement of liability.
Evidence that the statutory time limits were complied with.
Evidence of the date on which the hirer's details were supplied to you.
Confirmation that the claim against the registered keeper has been cancelled, together with a copy of the relevant correspondence.

For the avoidance of doubt, liability is denied and the debt is formally disputed. No admission is made as to the identity of the driver"



So I sent in response to their final demand letter:



I acknowledge receipt of your letter dated 28 July 2026 headed "Final Demand Before Court Action".

Liability for this charge is denied.

The vehicle is supplied under a hire arrangement. XXX Fleet UK Ltd wrote to me on 8 May 2026 confirming that my details had been provided to you and that the notice would be reissued directly to me.

To date, I have never been served with a Notice to Hirer pursuant to paragraph 14 of Schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012, nor have I received the documents prescribed by paragraphs 13 and 14 of Schedule 4, including a copy of the hire agreement and the statement of liability required to establish liability against the hirer.

Accordingly, prima facie, liability has not been established against the hirer in place of the registered keeper.

If you contend that liability has been validly transferred from the registered keeper to the hirer, please provide:

A copy of the Notice to Hirer.
Copies of all documents prescribed by paragraphs 13 and 14 of Schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012, including the hire agreement and statement of liability.
Evidence of the date on which XXXX Fleet UK Ltd, as registered keeper, supplied the hirer's details to you.
Evidence that the statutory requirements and time limits set out in Schedule 4 were complied with.
Confirmation that the Notice to Keeper issued to XXXXX Fleet UK Ltd has been cancelled and that you are no longer pursuing the registered keeper, together with copies of the relevant correspondence.
For the avoidance of doubt, liability is denied and the debt is formally disputed. No admission is made as to the identity of the driver, and nothing in this correspondence should be taken as such an admission.



This was the reply I received, note not one single question was answered:

Good afternoon,

Thank you for your email.

If you require a copy of your Parking Charge Notice and related correspondence, you will need to submit a Subject Access Request to our Data Protection Officer (DPO).

Please provide a copy of your ID and proof of address. Once the required documents are received, the information will be provided to you.

Requested documents should be sent to: dpo@europarkingservices.com

Kind regards,


How should i proceed from this

Usual SAR protocols in order for you to obtain the information required. They have timelines to respond to your request.

I understand that a SAR is the mechanism for obtaining my data, but given that

I responded to a Final Demand disputing liability and asking how hirer liability had been established, should I simply wait for a formal Letter Before Claim rather than provide further identification at this stage?

Should I respond to this response they made to me?

I am not comfortable to provide my ID details to the company, and thought since they contacted me, they should be able to disclose the information I requested, or what to people here suggest I do.

Thanks.

No - do not make any further representations at this time.
