I will double check and read the deeds. Thank you.

I have owned the property for 8 years and have had no problem with parking in the communal car park. The problem with parking only started middle of this year when UKPC started managing the car park. I am not aware of any restriction or problem with access to the property in the land registry entry.

I own the property and there is no allocated parking for residents. We could park in any empty space in the communal car park however middle of the year Swan housing asked UKPC to manage the car park and I never received correspondence of the plan. I will write to Swan housing and let them know I intend to take legal action if they both don't withdraw. Thank you.

Swan housing own most of the properties in the estate and UKPC said they were commissioned by Swan housing. Should I contact Swan Housing and inform them I consider the whole matter harassment and I intend seeking legal advice? Like I said I was never informed of the plan that UKPC was going to manage the communal car park and Swan housing are not the only landlord in the Estate they should have informed me of the plan.

I am struggling to find my appeal on the POPLA website but basically UKPC had originally asked for evidence I had a valid parking permit. I sent the copy of the parking permit to UKPC three different times however they kept sending me letters that they had not received the evidence. Subsequently they sent a letter stating that their decision to issue the PCN was final and advised me to go through the appeal. So in the appeal I sent a copy of the parking permit, email evidence that I had sent it to UKPC and on time. I also provided information that I was a landlord of the freehold property and had every right to park on my property. And Swan Housing later issued me a parking permit in agreement. Swan Housing a landlord in the surrounding area had asked UKPC to manage the car park but I never received correspondence about the plan. I am now thinking I should have sought more information and advise before going through the appeal. I just thought it was straightforward.

I would like some advise please? I am a landlord of a freehold property and was issued a parking charge for parking in the communal car park. I never received correspondence that UKPC was going to be managing the communal car park. My tenant later informed me he had not received any correspondence also about UKPC managing the car park and so had received parking charges for 3 consecutive days but was going to ignore the charges as he was a tenant and was within his rights to use the car park. I decided to appeal the parking charge unlike him, however POPLA have refused my appeal. I am unhappy with POPLA's decision, what can I do? Swan Housing has now provided us (my tenant and I) a parking permit. Swan Housing own properties in the surrounding area.

Your Information and Evidence Received Operator Information and Evidence Received POPLA Assessment Received Decision Unsuccessful Operator Information and Evidence Submitted 24/09/2015 POPLA assessment and decision 14/12/2015 Verification Code xxxxxxx Decision Unsuccessful Assessor Name Anthony Davidson Assessor summary of operator case No parking permit was displayed. Assessor summary of your case xxxx did not illegally park, xxx is a landlord in xxxxxxxx which is a freehold property. xxx has explained to Swan Housing that xxx property was a freehold and it was against the law to issue xxx a penalty notice. Assessor supporting rational for decision The terms and conditions of the car park clearly state no unauthorised parking, terms of parking apply Monday to Friday between 10am and 2pm. A valid permit must be clearly displayed at all times. Additionally, failure to comply with the terms and conditions will result in a parking charge of £100. The appellant has parked without displaying a valid parking permit. I acknowledge that appellant says xxx is a landlord in xxxxxx, which is a freehold property and xx has explained this also to Swan Housing. However, I am satisfied that the photographic evidence of the signage provided clearly advises the appellant of the terms and conditions of the car park. The operator has also provided photographic evidence of the vehicle parked at 10:47:40 without displaying a valid parking permit. By leaving xxx vehicle parked, the appellant has indicated xx acceptance of the terms and conditions. When doing so, the appellant equally accepted that the operator would issue a Parking Charge Notice (PCN) for failing to comply with any of the conditions. I am satisfied that the PCN has been issued correctly. Accordingly, this appeal must be refused.
