BW Legal - UK Car Park Management

Hi All,
My partner has received an letter in the post today 03/03/2025
from BW Legal over a PCN dated 5th June 2024 by UK Car Park
Management Limited.
We have no knowledge of this PCN dated 05/06/24 as no letters
arrived in the post, nor were there tickets left on the vehicle.
I have tried viewing the PCN on UK Car Park Management website,
however it says the following;
"This PCN has been transferred to our Legal Department
Please contact us if you wish to enquire about this PCN"
I have also registered an account with BW Legal using just the
name and address on the letter hoping to see some more
information on this but there is only an option to pay. The PCN
is for £170 but there is no evidence of any alleged parking
breach or whatever the ticket is for.
I will add that the vehicle in concerned was previously
registered to an old address which we have not had a access to
for a couple of years so letters could of been sent there.
EDIT: Trying to attach a photo of the letter received using
imgur but the photo isn't posting.

This is a private ticket matter, PCN in this case standing for
"Parking Charge Notice", not "Penalty Charge Notice" which is
council tickets.
Please advise a moderator to move the thread to the private
tickest forum using the "Report to Moderator" control at bottom
right of your ost.

That letter is just a debt collection letter. You can safely
ignore all debt collection letters as they are powerless to
actually do anything. However, if they do issue a Letter of
Claim (LoC) then you have to be aware that they are most likely
going to issue a court claim after that.
Obviously, at the time of the alleged contravention, you hadn't
updated the vehicles V5C document with your current address at
the time which is why you never heard anything about this until
now. Your first concern should be that the operator holds two
possible addresses for you and could simply send the claim to
the old address and you would know nothing about it until you
suddenly found that you can no liger get credit and that all
your insurance goes sky high and you discover that you now have
a CCJ on your credit file for the next 6 years.
You must send a Data Rectification Notice (DRN) to the DPO at
UKCPM and instruct them to update their records with your
current address for service and to erase any previous address
they hold for you. The highlighted words are there for a reason
and you should use them. You can send a copy of the letter from
BW Legal as proof that you are the person concerned.
Apart from that, you should do nothing else until you receive an
LoC at which point, come back and we'll advise on the next
steps.

Thanks for this, I've emailed UKCPM this morning and attached
the letter received from BW Legal. Do I also need to email BW
Legal and update them with my new address as I have moved again
as of this week which will be my permanent home for the
foreseeable.

Yes, also update BW Legal. They’re the ones going to be issuing
the claim on behalf of the operator.

Continue to wait. That letter is a debt demand and can be safely
ignored. Come back when you receive a Letter of Claim (LoC)

Dear XXXXXX,
Following our recent correspondence, we have not been able to
contact you despite numerous contact attempts. This is an
important matter and should not be ignored. We need to speak to
you about the outstanding balance of £170.00 owed to our client
UK Car Park Management Limited.
We don't want you to miss out on the pre-approved instalment
offer of £57.50 which expires on 2 May 2025.
If you contact us, we can assist you in finding a sustainable
repayment or help resolve any outstanding queries you may have
which would avoid the matter escalating any further.
Benefits of setting up an arrangement to pay
You will not receive further letters, calls, emails or SMS
chasing the balance once your plan is set.
This would prevent your case from escalating through our
collections process, which could, if applicable, reach a legal
stage.
If this account is being reported to credit reference agencies,
then setting up a repayment plan may help improve your credit
score as the balance reported each month reduces.
Don't let this matter escalate. Get in touch now
