Parking eye PCN - overstay - Farmfoods brierley hill
DIR By: Bhpcn

Morning,
I’ve received a PCN in the post today from parking eye as the
registered keeper of the vehicle in question, would appreciate
any advice please!
On 22nd February, the driver entered the car park and found a
space, parked up, and went for their appointment. The
appointment ran over due to the vendor running late, and when
the driver left the car park they had exceeded the maximum
parking period.

Welcome to FTLA.
To help us provide the best advice, please read the following
thread carefully and provide as much of the information it asks
for as you are able to: READ THIS FIRST - Private Parking
Charges Forum guide
HTML https://www.ftla.uk/private-parking-tickets/read-this-first-private-parking-charges-forum-guide/<br
/>
Our normal first bit of advice is to contact the landowner and
ask them to intervene, although from your account it's not
immediately clear what 'appointment' the driver could have had
at a Farmfoods store...

Can you post up a copy of the PPN with personal details
redacted?
Also, photos of the signage.
Who does the car park belong to, is it Farmfoods?

I was struggling to upload a pic on here - hopefully the url
below works!

I had an appointment at a neighbouring unit, the PCN states
Farmfoods so I assume it’s owned by them, but there are 3-4
different shops on the car park.
I can go back there and take a picture of the signage if
necessary!

Should be the signage as well, this is from Google Earth so a
year old though.

I am the registered keeper.
As your notice is not PoFA compliant I will not be accepting any
liability for the outstanding parking charges.
The driver is not known to you and I will not be providing any
driver details.
Your options are;
Cancel the notice
OR
Waste further money by providing a POPLA referral code.
I am sorry that I am unable to help you further.
Many thanks,
xxxxxx xxxxxxxx

[member=8481]Bhpcn[/member] to give you a brief overview of the
process you can expect challenging the notice:
- Initial appeal: Probably (almost certainly) rejected. If so:
- POPLA appeal: Probably (less certainly) rejected. If so:
- Debt Collector letters: Probably for some months. These can be
ignored. Probably followed by:
- Letter of Claim: Either from ParkingEye directly, or
solicitors acting on their behalf. Then:
- Court Claim: If handled by the third party DCB Legal, this
will probably be discontinued. If ParkingEye run the claim
themselves, they're more likely to go all the way to a hearing.

On what grounds do you suspect the PCN has been incorrectly
issued? From what you've told us so far you simply overstayed
the free stay period breaching the car park rules, hence the
PCN.
Use the appeal above and it'll quickly move to step 3 in DWMB2's
post above. If you're happy to play the waiting game hoping they
will discontinue before court then that's fine. If you want to
make it go away at first or second appeal stage you'll need
something a lot stronger than telling Parking Eye they don't
know how to word a PCN.
