Smart Parking Ltd PCN / CCJ - Insufficient Paid Time - B&M
DIR By: happyRR

---------------------------------------------------------
Hi,
Another one... I have received a claim by Smart Parking (DCB
legal). It is related to contravention from 19/03/2022 and have
no idea why and who was driving a car. Apparently the driver
didn't pay enough/extended stay base on the letter. Don't recall
I've received any PCNs on that or someone from household bin
them as store and parking doesn't exist anymore at this
location.
Following some other threads, just applied for AoS already, so
I've got a bit more time to defend it.
Please advise or provide some defence if I should use specific
one to this case (could see similar one here

The usual drivel in the POC by DCB, so the usual defence as you
have linked, should be OK - read it first to make sure it makes
sense / is relevant to your case. b789 is away for a few days,
but may comment on this when he gets back, but as you have done
AOS you have a while to submit defence.

Smart PCNs are often issued too late to hold the registered
keeper liable, but I note you no longer have a PCN, if you ever
did. Worth bearing in mind in case you get a copy later.

Back in 2022 they weren't even attempting to comply with PoFA

You could contact Smart and ask for all the info (PPN) they hold
in relation to this issue. Do not telephone them.
Contact their date officer, provide a copy of a utility bill
suitably redacted as proof of name and address.
Have you moved address since the incident?

Hi,
It took some time but I noticed now the email marked as read and
was worry for nothing for all these weeks.
Thanks for your help.
