Author Topic: 30 days PCNs, company did not inform me of price increase  (Read 52 times)

Thank you in advance for your help.

I live in the UK and have a permit that auto-renews every month. It is linked to my credit card.

The May payment declined, which I was not aware of. In late May the company sent me a notification informing me of this and saying I needed to purchase a new pass, and they would send me a link for backdated payments.

I was confused as to why my bank had declined this. Also if it helps, I work in healthcare so quite busy and hectic. I checked my bank, asked around neighbours, and finally asked the car park company itself if the price had changed. They said they had increased the monthly price. I did not receive any written or spoken communication about this.

I set up a new permit, within less than 7 working days of receiving the email in late May.

However they’ve said that it’s too late now, they won’t offer an option to backdate payment, and I will be receiving 30 days worth of PCNs.

I have appealed but know the chances are slim with BaySentry. I really cannot afford £1800 worth of payments.

Please can someone advise if I have any legal standing? Thank you in advance

If you have had 30 PCN I would not expect you to post all of them but a sample would be of benefit. This is a little more complicated as this appears to be an issue of a possible resident permit parking. One assumes that there is clauses or terms in the lease agreement. If you have a direct debit or standing order which is on a monthly rollout you mention back dated payments but it would appear there is only one possible missed payment. If they as you say have increased the monthly payment then you should have received information. You need to contact the management service provider to get them cancelled.
