Ethics Group Ticket (PCN)

We support UK drivers to deal with Ethics Group tickets, parking charges, court claims and CCJ’s to get them cancelled. Whether you want to appeal a parking charge or defend a court claim, we can help.

Why Challenge Ethics Group Ticket?

Ethics Group ticket can be cancelled if the parking charge notice was not issued correctly according to BPA rules or the law or you have clear evidence the vehicle was parked correctly.

Many Ethics Group tickets are also cancelled due to defective signage, no landowner authority, mistakes with ANPR cameras and many more as covered in our parking charge appeal loopholes.

Most people fail to win appeals because they don’t understand the correct procedure and how to write appeals and avoid common tactics used by parking companies.

Parking Mate UK is a smart way to challenge Ethics Group tickets using BPA Code of Practice and the law in Protections of Freedoms Act 2012 loopholes.

Can I ignore Ethics Group 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 Ethics Group 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 Ethics Group must meet to transfer liability.

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

Are Ethics Group tickets enforceable?

The answer is no. Ethics Group 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 Ethics Group and challenge whether that parking charge notice was issued correctly or not.

If Ethics Group issued the parking charge correctly, they still have to take the case to court before they can enforce it.

If Ethics Group 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.

Ethics Group Ticket in Scotland and Northern Ireland

The rules for Ethics Group 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 Ethics Group 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 Ethics Group.

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.
