The BBC Radio 4 lady said they had obtained a spreadsheet from DVLA containing every request for keeper details made by organisations through KADOE, and that PPM did not appear on it at all. I then remembered DVLA had previously told me in response to my complaint, that PPM had not acquired our details through KADOE. I can only assume they were obtained through DVLA's V888/3 postal form. Which would maybe explain why every Notice to Keeper was served late.
Section 3.4 was the part I forgot to put in my appeal, not that it needed it, but it really just accentuates how totally clueless PPM really are.
The public highway section of Choats Road, which had PPM's signage along it, was confirmed by the Council to be public highway, with no contracted private parking enforcement, but instead, a TRO enforced by the council for none other than...... a no waiting restriction. Initially they didn't seem too concerned, saying the signage was on the fence on private land and nothing to do with them. So, I reported it to their Counter Fraud department, as ultimately any revenue they may have generated on the public highway where they have no legal standing, has been collected fraudulently. The signage on Choats Road has been removed now. Whether it was due to the fraud report or BBC journalists investigating, who knows. But GLA/GLAP had refused to speak to the BBC regarding it, and since I made GLA fully aware of what PPM were up to, I can't imagine they were very happy about the idea of being exposed on BBC Radio 4 and probably told PPM to remove the signage.
Anyway, our vehicles are still delivering there regularly, so I suspect it is only a matter of time before they try again and I get another bunch of Parking.... I mean, Stopping Charge Notices.
