Private Parking Solutions NTK Regis Road
DIR By: JLA
Date: June 15, 2026, 5:55 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Hi All, received this notice on 8th June. The driver had taken a
relative to an emergency appointment with a psychologist at the
Mental Health Crisis Centre in Regis Rd. They also attended the
meeting. Parking was paid for on the JustPark app from 10.13 to
10.58, unfortunately (due to the nature of the meeting) they
didn't realise the parking had expired, but as soon as they did
they paid for a further period of parking from 11.13 to 11.50.
The Parking charge was issued at 11.10. Is there anything wrong
with the NTK? Do you think there's any point at all in appealing
on the grounds that due to it being a serious mental health
crisis it was a genuine mistake in not extending the parking on
time. As can be seen in the JustPark app the driver was parking
every/every other day whilst attending the Mental Health Crisis
Centre with the relative. Or should it just be paid as reduced
rate expires tomorrow. Any help or advice really appreciated.
Thanks.

There is no “period of parking” although they won’t accept this
as a valid appeal point.

Does it matter that they say 'if after 29 days beginning on the
day after this parking charge is given' instead of 28 days as
stated in PoFA?
And re: the period of parking, they do have images covering a
period from 11.04 to 11.11 so would that nullify that point
anyway?

Does anyone think it's worth trying an appeal as it will end up
at POPLA if it's not a strong enough point to win on?

It’s your call.
You can pay £60 to avoid months of paperwork which will require
your time and attention. Only you can decide whether or not it’s
worth it. If you defend, it’s likely to go to a county court
claim which needs to be defended, but many are discontinued at
the last moment if so. You can search the forum for other PPS
cases also to see what happens.

There are several points of non PoFA compliance.
Make a simple appeal to the operator pointing these out.
They'll reject the appeal but this one has a decent chance at
POPLA.
Quick question; what time did you actually leave the site?
Meaning; did the total parking purchased (over the two periods
purchased) cover the total period you were parked?

No, they arrived at 10.13 and left at 11.50, it was during the
meeting they realised it had expired and renewed it, but there
was a 13 min period from 10.59 to 11.12 where it wasn't covered
and pcn is timed at 11.10.

Is this ok as they're going to reject it anyway?
I am appealing this charge as the registered keeper as your
notice is non compliant with PoFA 2012.
Schedule 4 paragraph 9(1) states: A notice which is to be relied
on as a notice to keeper for the purposes of paragraph 6(1)(b)
is given in accordance with this paragraph if the following
requirements are met:
(2) The notice must
(a) specify the vehicle, the relevant land on which it was
parked and the period of parking to which the notice relates.
There is no period of parking given. A single timestamp is not
sufficient.
Schedule 4 Paragraph 9(2)(f) of PoFA requires that, amongst
other things, the NTK warn the keeper that the parking operator
is required to comply with all aspects of schedule 4 in order to
rely on it.
Schedule 4 Paragraph 9(2)(f) of PoFA requires that the notice
must state that 'the creditor will, if all applicable conditions
under this Schedule are met, have the right to recover from the
keeper so much of that amount that remains unpaid'.
The NTK does not fully comply with all the requirements of PoFA
2012. Partial or even substantial compliance is not sufficient,
therefore PPS are unable to hold the keeper of the vehicle
liable for the charge.

Yes - that will do. They will reject whatever you write.
We can then come up with better for POPLA or IAS.
