We Help at Every Stage
A parking charge follows a set process. Here is where you are, and how we can help.
- 1
Stage 1
The Parking Incident
You receive a Parking Charge Notice on your windscreen or by post. This is not a fine. It is an invoice from a private company.
Free appeal guide available - 2
Stage 2
Notice to Keeper
The operator must send a Notice to Keeper within strict time limits under POFA 2012. If they fail, their claim against the registered keeper may be unenforceable.
Free POFA compliance check - 3
Stage 3
Appeals
You can appeal to the operator, then to an independent appeals service (POPLA or IAS). If the appeal succeeds, the matter ends here.

Stage 4
Debt Collection
If unpaid, the charge is referred to a debt collector. They send increasingly firm letters but have no special legal powers beyond writing to you.

Stage 5
Letter Before Claim
Before court action, the claimant must send a formal Letter Before Claim and give you 30 days to respond. Many fail to meet these requirements.

Don't just take our word for it. Here's what happens when you know your rights.
“ParkingEye claimed I owed £170 for overstaying by 8 minutes at Aldi. The defence showed their Notice to Keeper was sent on day 15, one day late under POFA. DCB Legal dropped the claim.”
“Received a £100 charge from Euro Car Parks for parking at my own workplace. Appealed to POPLA using the arguments from the guide and won. Didn't even need the paid defence.”
“Gladstones Solicitors sent me a Letter Before Claim for £390. I was ready to pay. FightMyPCN's defence cost me £19. They discontinued four weeks later.”

Schedule 4: Keeper Liability
Challenges every notice requirement, time limit, and prescribed content obligation the parking company must meet.
Consumer Rights Act 2015
Part 2: Unfair Terms
Argues charges are disproportionate, non-transparent, and fail the statutory fairness test.
Pre-Action Protocol for Debt Claims
Mandatory Pre-Court Steps
Challenges whether the claimant sent a compliant Letter Before Claim, allowed 30 days to respond, and offered ADR.
