10 PCNs from PPS in Tatton Crescent E5 9AG, Keeper not driver,
Debt collectors involved
By: davi Date: January 25, 2026, 8:43 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
Hi
I am the registered keeper, but I was not the driver and was not
insured on the vehicle at the time the PCNs were issued.I gave
my old car to my grandchild to use.
The car was being used by my grandchild. She parked on Tatton
Crescent, London E5 9AG, a private road with red lines, managed
by Private Parking Solutions London Ltd (PPS). She had verbal
permission from a local shop manager to park there. The manager
is not employed by PPS but he has a connection with them. The
permission was understood to be for a limited period. however my
grandchild believed this period was longer.
After that short period ended, I started receiving 10 PCNs by
post as the registered keeper.
My grandchild showed the PCNs to the manager, who said he would
deal with them. This continued for some time with no resolution.
Around six months ago, my grandchild left the UK. I am still
receiving letters, now from various debt collection companies.I
note that different debt collection companies have been used for
different groups of tickets.
How can I stop these letters?
Should I contact PPS and confirm I was not the driver (and not
insured) at the time?
If I name the driver, could this cause any issues for my
grandchild now that she is abroad (and if she comes back)?
Is it too late to challenge the PCNs?

As these are over a year old there's not much you can do now.
You could try naming your granddaughter, but then she would be
liable, and with an overseas address I imagine they will just
ignore it. With the best part of £2k in play, I imagine they
will eventually bring this to court. Often these are
discontinued, but again as there are 10, they may be more
interested in pursuing it all the way to a hearing. Arguably the
NTKs are not POFA compliant for transfer of liability (no period
of parking, no invite to pay / name the driver) and the 'no
parking' prohibition is incapable of forming a contract.
Just got to wait it out for a Letter of Claim, and then the
court claim. They have 6 years to bring the claim - should you
move in this time, make sure to notify them, the last thing you
want is a claim going to an address you are not longer at, and
them getting a default judgement.

If they do, then this would surely further strengthen the OP's
defence, as the creditor would have been provided with the name
of the driver and a current address for service for the driver.
OP, is your grandchild permanently resident abroad?

She has a contract for the next 2 years, and then she will
decide...
Thanks for all replys
