You can respond to that phishing exercise with the following:
[quote]Re: Parking Charge Notice [ref]
Dear Sir or Madam,
I refer to your letter dated 28 November 2025.
First, your assertion that I “stated that [I was] not the driver
of the vehicle at the date and time of the breach” is entirely
false. I said no such thing. My appeal made it perfectly clear
that I am the registered keeper, that I dispute the charge, and
that there would be no admission as to the identity of the
driver and no inferences or assumptions could be drawn.
Your attempt to rewrite my appeal into something it never said
is, at best, sloppily incompetent and, at worst, deliberately
mendacious. It gives the distinct impression that nobody at
ParkingEye has actually read my appeal and that you are simply
spraying out boilerplate bluster in the hope that keepers will
be bullied into naming a driver.
For the avoidance of doubt, I will not be identifying the
driver. There is no legal obligation on a registered keeper to
disclose a driver’s identity and you have no entitlement to that
personal data.
You then recite selected snippets from Schedule 4 of the
Protection of Freedoms Act 2012, as if parroting paragraphs
9(2)(b) and 9(2)(f) somehow cures the other defects in your
Notice to Keeper. It does not. Keeper liability can only arise
where an operator has complied with ALL the mandatory
requirements of Schedule 4, not just the ones it finds
convenient to quote after the event. Your NtK is not fully
compliant with all of those requirements; partial or
“substantial” compliance is insufficient in law. Consequently,
you cannot transfer liability for this charge from the unknown
driver to me as keeper.
My position is therefore unchanged:
• I deny any liability or contractual agreement.
• I will not be naming the driver.
• You cannot rely on Schedule 4 PoFA to pursue me as keeper.
You must now either cancel this charge or issue a POPLA code
without further prevarication. Any continued attempt to
misrepresent my appeal, to misstate the effect of PoFA, or to
pursue me as if I were liable despite your own non-compliant
paperwork will simply form part of a formal complaint to your
client and the relevant regulatory and supervisory bodies.
Yours faithfully,
[Name]
Registered Keeper[/quote]

[member=26]b789[/member] I sent the above to ParkingEye as you
suggested. This "Letter Before County Court Claim" arrived from
ParkingEye today (23.1.26):

Did you ever get an appeal response with a POPLA code?

No, I didn't, they didn't reply to my last correspondence asking
for one. Everything I've received has been posted in this
thread.

Update: I've just found the POPLA code in my emails and realised
I missed the deadline :(
Please advise on wording for a safe Letter Before Claim response
(30 days, online reply only).
Thanks in advance!

Doesn't really matter as it was unlikely you would have been
successful at POPLA with the appeal grounds you used with
Parkingeye. Nothing more you can do now until a letter of claim
turns up which you can't afford to ignore. When that arrives
come back here for further advice.
