People Against Private Parking Abuse
An independent, volunteer-minded resource for anyone dealing with a private land parking charge in England and Wales — especially when the ticket feels wrong.
You are in the right place
Did you get a private parking notice (a PCN or “charge” from a private operator) and you do not think it is fair? That confusion and frustration are common. This site is for people in exactly that position.
We are not a law firm and we do not give legal advice. We explain how the system developed, how appeals usually work, and we point to places where you can read further and get organised. Deadlines are serious — if in doubt, protect your position while you read up.
