Civil Parking Charge Notice - COSTCO
DIR By: kno
Date: June 28, 2023, 6:36 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Hello Everyone,
I, the registered keeper, received a Civil Enforcement PCN
through post. The notice states that the car stayed more than 3
hours at COSTCO.
The driver went to buy a new membership and most of the time was
taken at the membership counter rather than their purchase
itself. Anyway, the driver plans to go to COSTCO on Saturday
(1st Jul 2023) and try to get it canceled through them. But
before the driver does that, I seek your advice on how to
proceed on this.
Timelines
-----------
Incident date - 17 june 2023
Notice issue date - 22 june 2023 (per the notice)
Notice received through post on - 28 june 2023
Additional Question - Is this a private PCN (parking charge
notice)? If Yes, how do they get access to registered keeper
details from DVLA?
Location is COSTCO Hayes -

Your link produces this response:
Google
400. That’s an error.
The server cannot process the request because it is malformed.
It should not be retried. That’s all we know.

EDIT:
However, the link at Pepipoo works:

This is a private parking penalty.

Yes - anyone who has 'reasonable cause' is able to get
Registered Keeper details from the DVLA

In the case of
private parking companies, they must be registered with either
the British Parking Association (BPA) or the International
Parking Community (IPC), and they have a contract with DVLA as
part of something called KADOE - Keeper of a Vehicle at the Date
of an Event.
Looking at what you've uploaded, I think your best bet will be
Costco management. The 3 hour limit is presumably to prevent
non-customers abusing their car park, not to penalise genuine
users, so explaining the situation to them will hopefully
encourage them to intervene.
NB - your links don't work, but they do on PePiPoo, might be
worth re-posting the links here.

Closing the thread on this. I went to COSTCO today and asked
them to cancel it out. They were very understanding, and stated
they will cancel it for me. Also, in case if I get any further
note/queries on this ticket, I can contact them.
Additional Info for other COSTCO people out there - If you think
you will be getting over the stipulated 3 hours, contact the
helpdesk inside the store, and they will manage it at the
backend. You won't be having the hassle of getting a ticket.
A heartfelt Thank You to everyone in this forum for their help
and support.

A good result. Thanks for taking the time to come back to us,
and good to see Costco taking the common sense approach and
intervening.
