Car Park Securities Debt Recovery Letter ?

If you receive a debt recovery letter from Car Park Securities, it is important to understand your options at this stage. It is generally advised to ignore such letters, as the purpose of the debt recovery process is often to obtain more information from you or to pressure you into paying.

Despite any claims made in the letter, it is unlikely that the parking charge notice will be canceled at this point.

This is because debt recovery companies have a contractual agreement with Car Park Securities, where they only get paid if they successfully collect the debt from you.

You may receive a debt recovery letter:

Received A Car Park Securities Reminder Letter ?

If Car Park Securities issue a reminder letter while the appeal is in progress, then you can simply wait for the appeal process to finish before you take any action.

If the reminder letter comes out of the blue without a parking charge being issued, then you could be entitled to make a complaint about not receiving parking charge notice.

Ticket has progressed to a receive a reminder notice, you may have an opportunity to challenge the parking charge notice or you may have an opportunity to negotiate a lower rate for your parking charge.

International Parking Community rules say that a final reminder can only be issued after a parking charge notice is sent. If not, you may be able to complain about the unfair enforcement.

If a reminder is sent during the appeal process, for example within 28 days after the parking charge was issued, you can still appeal it as if it was the parking charge notice and put your case forward to why you object the parking charge notice.

Can I ignore Car Park Securities Ticket?

Since 2012, the law Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 was introduced to help both drivers and parking companies when it comes to dealing with parking tickets.

For drivers, this law made clamping illegal, and introduced requirements that Car Park Securities must follow in order to make the vehicle keeper liable for a parking charge if the driver is not known.

This is still the most powerful tool today to challenge parking tickets because the law clearly explains the requirements that Car Park Securities must meet to transfer liability.

However, the same law allows Car Park Securities to transfer liability to the registered keeper, so if you ignore the parking charge, Car Park Securities can use it to make the keeper liable.

CCJ Quick Reference

A CCJ must be removed if the CCJ is not issued correctly, for example, the claim is sent to your old address, then you can apply to have the CCJ to be set aside and if successful, you will have an opportunity to defend the court claim.

Parking companies often omit this information that you can get a CCJ removed or have it set aside in certain situations. In fact, as part of the process to challenge a CCJ, if you and the parking company agree that a claim was issued to an old address or you agree to pay the amount, then a CCJ can be removed if both parties “consent” or agree to have it removed.

Most people think that they will receive a CCJ if they don’t respond to parking tickets, however this only happens if you ignore a County Court claim and do not defend yourself.

Are Car Park Securities tickets enforceable?

The answer is no. Car Park Securities tickets are invoices issued for breach of contract, what this means is that when you receive the parking charge notice, you have an opportunity to engage with Car Park Securities and challenge whether that parking charge notice was issued correctly or not.

If Car Park Securities issued the parking charge correctly, they still have to take the case to court before they can enforce it.

If Car Park Securities don’t comply with the law, they could put themselves in a difficult situation where they commit fraud under Fraud Act 2006 or if they lose a court case, they will have to pay compensation if they have been unreasonable.

So, parking charge notices can only be a nuisance if you ignore court proceedings and you do not respond. Otherwise, many claims can successfully be defended in court.

Car Park Securities Ticket in Scotland and Northern Ireland

The rules for Car Park Securities tickets in Scotland and Northern Ireland differ from the rest of the UK as the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 does not apply there.

This means Car Park Securities will attempt to identify the driver to hold them liable, but if they cannot do so legitimately, they could be committing fraud by transferring liability to the registered keeper.

Many people are unaware of their rights in this situation, leading to unfair enforcement. The Data Protection Act 2018 was introduced to protect individuals from this and allow them to claim compensation from Car Park Securities.

Recently, Nigel Farage held Coutts Bank accountable for collecting his political views without his consent and residents of Scotland and Northern Ireland can also make a subject access request to find out if their information was processed without legitimate reason.

In this case, they can claim up to £750 for Breach of Data Protection Act 2018.
