Parkingeye, Overstayed, Birchanger Green- Bishops Stortford
DIR By: Keeper
Date: July 22, 2026, 9:27 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Hi everyone,
I've received the attached notices as the keeper.
The driver entered the car park and took a nap, then left at the
alleged time after going into the services and buying some
breakfast.
Do note that as far as I'm aware, the attached letter is the
first communication I've received regarding this.
What should I do in these circumstances?
Thanks in advance!

Send a Subject Access Request to Parking Eye asking for all
personal details they hold on you, which will include the
original Notice to Keeper. This may be required in order to
defend this properly.

Thanks - I'm unclear should I do this as an appeal through their
website?
Cheers

No.
A Subject Access Request has nothing to do with parking tickets
and appeals. Send it to their Data Protection Officer with
supporting documentation of your identity. Look it up if this
doesn't make sense.

/>as just one example.

You appear to have a few days remaining in which to make an
appeal - but on what basis? The argument will be that the driver
read the signs and parked, entering into a contract, and is now
being pursued for breach of contract on some basis, presumably
because of a parking time limit. The registered keeper can be
made liable under the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 in place
of the unknown driver, but that’s why the original notice may be
important to see.
That said, I think you should direct your efforts first to the
owner of the location to see if you can get them to cancel this
for you.

I've now received the full list of correspondence including the
initial PCN which I did not receive.

I've also had a response to the appeal that I made, saying I'd
entered a Subject Access Request, and they're offering me the
£60 'discounted' charge again for 14 days.
Do the good people of FTLA think it's worth paying that?
Many thanks

Again, on what basis will you defend this?
Parking Eye appear to have complied with the Protection of
Freedoms Act 2012 to transfer liability from the driver to the
registered keeper.
The driver entered into a contract by reading the signs and by
parking.

Owner of the location is clear that they won't get involved and
all correspondence should be with ParkingEye.
I guess in this case the best course of action is to pay the
discounted charge.
