Hi Posting the latest communication - slightly different on page 3 than I've seen before. I don't appear to need to reply even though they say legal recovery actions 'will begin' on p1 as p3 says 'if your case has to move to legal action'. Certainly nothing received along the lines of what's in post #9 Gunnersbury Park DRP letter Feb 23.pdf

Thanks I think the 28/11 on the letter is referring to the date they say they issued the parking charge - i.e. 10 days after the alleged offence (presumably as it has to be within 14 days). However I have never received this - the NTK was the first I heard about it although it took 22 days to arrive. But they also refer to the NTK as if it is a PCN. Anyway I’m confident to keep ignoring.

Hi, I received the attached from Debt Recovery Plus. Looks as though they are threatening potential legal action but not actually doing so as yet. The back of this letter does refer to the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 - the NTK didn't. Presumably they know the PCN is not compliant (as per post #5) so would be daft to take it further. Again, I plan not to respond at this stage. Gunnersbury Park DRP letter Jan23.pdf

I have now received a further letter entitled "Overdue Parking Charge Important Notice to Keeper" dated 29/12/22 although I only received it a few days ago. I attach a copy of the first page - the second page is exactly the same as the first letter. Apart from now saying I owe £100 there is no other new information. I plan to file it with the other letter and hold tight. NTK Dec 29 Gemini (1).pdf

Thanks and sorry for delay getting more info. The location coordinates are 51.5343452, -0.1954559 just trying to convert photos that show the car was not obstructing or near any road junction now it’s confirmed as a CPZ is it necessary to have yellow lines in the gaps? Pics attached. Daylight one from the council website other one shows that the car isn’t an obstruction carpics SK.pdf

Sorry Chichester Rd NW6

Thanks, it’s near Kilburn Park station

Hi all, A quick bit of advice please. My son has a resident's parking permit and parked his car outside his flat. It was over the edge of the parking bay and he got a ticket. It was not obstructing anything. He has appealed and the council rejected it on the grounds '..not parked correctly within the markings of the bay or space. A condition of use of the parking bay is that the vehicle should be parked wholly within the marked bay'. It goes on to talk about the bays being designed to allow access etc. There are no road markings beyond the parking bay. I noticed that, where I live there, are always yellow lines (single or double) between the gaps between parking bays (however small the gaps) I wondered if Brent doesn't have compliant road markings or whether my borough is just overmarking the roads. My son doesn't really want to risk paying double the fine, but I said I would get some advice on here before he pays. Thanks AJJM

I have taken photos from Gunnersbury’s website stating that they are changing the payment app following visitor feedback regarding problems with the Y-Pay app. If I can work out how to convert them from photos I will post them

Hi All I received a parking charge notice to keeper on Tues 20 Dec 2022, there was no postmark on the envelope but I received a lot of post that day - possibly held up by postal strikes. I had not received any previous letters or information about this - nothing left on the car and nothing in the post. The letter states one has 14 days to pay a reduced amount but the letter arrived 22 days after that date. 1 Date of the infringement 18/11/22 2 Date on the NTK [this must have been received within 14 days from the 'offence' date] 28/11/22 3 Date received 20/12/22 4 Does the NTK mention schedule 4 of The Protections of Freedoms Act 2012? [Y/N?] N 5 Is there any photographic evidence of the event? Yes photos of number plate but no entry or exit time on the photos supplied in the NTK 6 Have you appealed? [Y/N?] post up your appeal] N Have you had a response? [Y/N?] post it up n/a 7 Who is the parking company? Gemini Parking Solutions 8. Where exactly [carpark name and town] Gunnersbury Park Ealing London For either option, does it say which appeals body they operate under. The footer of the letter says 'operating in accordance with the British Parking Association's Code of Practice' but the address they give to appeal is themselves i.e. geminiparkingsolutions.zatappeal.com If you have received any other correspondence, please mention it here None My plan is not to respond I am unsure if this NTK is even within the rules and what exactly the implications are regarding the delay in receiving it. It seems odd not to have received any letter before this (from previous experience). The person who parked did actually try to pay but without success. The park management are actually changing the app through which one pays from Jan because there have been so many problems for park users with the app this company use (Y Pay) - aware of this the parker tried a card in the machine and couldn't get it to work so left a note on the windscreen. However the car park uses ANPR. I visited the car park and it does state this on entry to the car park but not on the signs near the payment machines. It states that 'ANPR cameras and parking operatives obtain vehicle information to manage this car park'. Thanks in anticipation AJJM > NTK Dec 22-5.pdf

The writer of the second letter (the lawyer) has now also had a similar follow up letter from Gladstones (attached) along with endless photos of the car, the ticket and the area of the residential estate. I expect I'll receive one too shortly. Seems no action required here either but adding for completeness of thread. brentford parking June 21 captain.pdf

Perfect, thank you

Thanks for reopening the thread. Please see attached letter received in response to the letter sent in post 76, incidentally the same person who received the letter in post 81. My reading of it suggests no action required but just checking in here!! Thanks as ever to all Gladstones letter June 21.pdf

None of the letters sent included any photographic evidence of her car being parked

So the ntk was in time - odd that my friend hasn’t been sent any photos though
