UK Parking Control Ltd Reviews 

Why so many daylight robbers in this land? TV license, SIMARC and UKPC. Had to help my brother with a broke down car in a parking lot at night. Couple of days later for PCN. Appeal but rejected. They don't care.

Our delivery driver could not get into our customers yard to deliver Motor Parts(Heavy ones) and stopped and parked outside there premises for 2 minutes and 1 second and got the ticket,appealed the ticket and they wanted the drivers details,i refused the details and said we are the registered keeper,kept hasstleing in me with letters,paid thee £60.00 fine now i will take them to court and hassle them

UKPC are an absolute joke of a company. They steal money from you, and do not give a shit about it.
I drove through the night, from Glasgow to Kings Lynn in Norfolk, to collect my new car. I arrived in Kings Lynn at 4.15am., which was a lot earlier than I planned, so I nipped into a local McDonalds for a meal and a hot drink. Unfortunately, as I returned to my car with my food, I started to feel unwell, and had to rush back into McDonalds to quickly use their toilet facilities. I was getting worse by the minute, and it took me some time to get myself back outside for some fresh air. Im a retired man, and my health has been getting unpredictable, and although the large car park was almost empty, (about 5 cars), I was rather embarrassed as I had to again rush back into the toilets. Eventually, after another long spell in the gents, I managed to return to my car. I was still very unwell, and sat for a while with my door open, to get as much fresh air into my lungs as possible. I decided to go back into McDonalds, for a drink, but as I stood up, I unfortunately, vomited at the side of my car, so I had to sit back down, to try and regain my composure etc. I did manage to get onto my feet, and headed into McDonalds again for the drink that I now really needed. While in there I got a handfull of napkins and bottles of water to clean up the mess I had made at the side of my car. I apologised to the manager and staff, and they honestly, couldn't have been any kinder or more helpful. After tidying up etc, I had to sit a while in my car, as my eyes were streaming, and I simply couln't drive out onto the main roads, that were now beginning to get some local traffic on them. However, when I did regain my composure, I lef the car park and continued my journey to drop off the hire car I was driving, at the local Enterprise car hire branch. I then collected my new car at the local car dealership, and eventually headed back home to Glasgow. However, a few days later, I received an email from UKPC., the clowns that regulate the times cars go in and out of the McDonalds car park, and to my amazement, had sent me a fine for £50.00., for over staying in the car park. I was absolutely shocked, as the car park was empty, as it was 4.15am., and yes, I was over the time allowed, but who was I bothering? Who couldn't get a parking space because of my car being parked there, over the allowcated time? So I emailed them back, and explained the unfortunate predicament I found myself in, due to me taking a bad turn, in the car park. But they responded quickly and NO, absolutely No way will they wave the fine, or even reduce it. They said they were sympathetic to the circumstances that I was in, but as I over stayed, even tho the car park was empty, and I was totally unwell, I have been forced by this terrible company, to pay the £50.00., fine, and they added another £1.50 admin fee, which is another bloody joke. This company UKPC should be shut down by the government as quickly as possible, and I'm going to make it my lifetime project, to do my best, and write to as many companies and governing bodies as possible, to shut this absolute daylight robbery scandal of an outfit down.

We currently have an appeal lodged with ukpc.via email.they have sent ne a document to view but it wont download.i have emailed them fir a week abd their in box is full.the telephone number issued is an automated service.i ubderstabd they do nog want to discuss the appeal but i am unable to access the document they have sent it is impossible to talk to a person.

Stopped for 1 minute to assist my disabled partner out of the car and was fined. My engine was still running! The parking reference even said that I was stopped for only1 minute. Absolutely disgusting behaviour.

Just like to say now. I have lobbying local government. For delivery drivers.
Being charged. Simply doing their job.
No matter what the signs say now.
There is now 10min.grace period for delivery drivers.
I still lobbying local government. As the i feel that parking companies are exeding the high Court ruling of clear and obvious. To charge delivery drivers.
It looks like good news. Delivery drivers can claim their money back. I am still looking into this. Lobbying local government clarification on this matter.
Thanks Lyndon.

So after appealing a PCN for 4 months and appealing to POPLA which POPLA has agreed with my arguments and points but still agreed with UKPC and I was forced to pay the charge which I am taking to court as I know my rights and legislation they have the cheek to add a £1.50 admin fee charge online and by phone absolute CON ARTIST they are and I refuse to let this go.

These people are harassing me over a parking charge I don't owe
I have to drive across a carpark to get to my works address I have dash cam footage and tracker information to prove where my car is parked during the day I have worked for my present employer for over 18 years and never had a problem untill these can artists put camera up i.have appealed against this charge but the won't listen

Tiny parking bays, to fit as many cars as possible, and if you have a wheel touching the line they fine you

Parked in a pup carpark to visit the establishment. Pup was shut. Waited to see if it would open as advertised. It didn’t but I did receive a parking fine. Also, they charge an admin fee for the privilege of paying.

Absolute conmen company...im disabled and got a £60 pound ticket for being slightly outside the line...they pick on anyone even the weak poor and vunerable I hope karma bites you in the arse

If I could give this company 0 stars I would!!! What a scam and disgrace of a company. How are they allowed to still operate!! I am going to take my complaint as high as I can to try ad get them investigated and hopefully closed down!!

I'm surprised UKPC are still going, it's absolutely shocking the way they treat people. The government needs to close them down pronto.

Such a frustrating experience. Parked in a n area where the road markings were eroded so couldn’t see spacing. Made sure to park so not occluding any other cars/ entrances/ footpaths as per Highway Code. Got an extortionate fine with no offer of initial reduction. Appealed and had no response until the debt collection agency sent a letter 2 months later for £170 fine. Complained about lack of response to my appeal & the law states that you can’t be chased for a debt until all appeals have been determined - so told the debt collectors to back off. Still no response from either.
I also note how this company don’t make it easy for you to contact them too! Criminals.

I am currently appealing. I drove into the wrong carpark, I spent (and have proof of this) I spent 4 mins to discover i was in incorrect place. So left. The pics they used shows me leaving car park to go to my appointment next door. What concerns me is they claim they wrote to me already so i have no right to appeal. I have never had any other correspondence regarding this. This seems to be happening on all the people's reviews... I have never had any other letter. I spent under 10 mins in the car park not actually parking as car was running and then left. Awful as you cannot speak to anyone to resolve this absolute joke immediately. It's disgusting to treat people like this. How many people are conned into paying?
My parking was covered at my appointment it covers me for at least 4 hours next door. I was in the wrong unit.

I find this anti capitalist plot to drive customers away from mainstream retailers ( B&Q. Halfords et all) refreshing as several recipients of parking fines have indicated they will never shop at these retail parks again. It failed with myself because the terms and conditions signs were so high l had to go and buy a step ladder to read them. The Welsh language one was so dirty I had to return with a bucket and sponge to clean it to make it legible. I then offered the said items to the enforcing officer so he could offer a free car wash with each parking ticket issued with the view to taking it on as a full time occupation that would give him a greater feeling of job satisfaction.

Absolute shower of sh*t!

Lack of empathy from these cowboys is off the chart! I actually paid for a ticket (full day) but failed to change my car reg info to my new car, genuine honest mistake, appealed the fine, but they refused the reason for the appeal. Would rather walk to work than use one of their car parks again!!
Avoid like the plague!!

Absolutely vile company. I tried to pay to park in one of their car parks and both machines weren't working. I tried to pay online but website down so I left the car park and parked elsewhere. At no point did I leave my car unattended except to try and pay. I got a £100 fine anyway! Tried to appeal but it was refused. I can't afford to pay and can't sleep at night because of the worry. I have never had a parking fine in my life! There must be someone you can complain too as they are robbing innocent people, it's disgusting.

Waste of time appealing disgusting company

Absolutely terrible company and service. I paid for parking for a conference (JustPark). Later in the day, I realised I needed more time. I extended the stay via the app (well within the time frame) only to be issued with a parking fine from UKPC a week later. I submitted an appeal with all the crystal clear evidence and now am being chased by a company called ZZPS for an increased fine of £170!! Having chased this up yet again, they claim to have sent me an email acknowledging their mistake and offering a £30 ‘gesture of goodwill’. I did not receive this email so now they are hounding me with letters from zzps debt collection agency. Surely as they have recognised this was entirely their own error, they should have tried a little harder to make contact to resolve this? And at the very least just dropped the case, the minute they acknowledged they were wrong? (Saving themselves £30 in the process!!) Surely the next step is NOT to refer to a debt agency for a fine I do not owe them?! Absolutely appalling company.
