Appalling company. Hard to contact. Their appeal website does not let you submit an appeal! Should be closed down for fraud!

Sadly I have had to deal with company twice in two years and nothing as improved they still use the same methods to scam you ...no working appeals process to contest parking fines

I didn't even want to give a star to them but I had to just to write this review.

The worst pretend company I've ever had the misfortune to hear from, I contacted them to advise I had not received a fine and this had meant I was unable to appeal a PCN I had no idea about! They have never tried to help. At times chosen to ignore me completely and operate in a disgusting manner scamming people and issuing CCJ's.

I cannot understand how any human would want to work for such a company, or how this is allowed to happen. I hope karma comes back to bite these people.

I parked in a private car park next to flats on Shenley Road, Borehamwood, to visit our new baby grandson on 1st November 2025. As I have difficulty walking I was prepared to pay the parking fine rather than hobble in pain from the Shenley Road public car park. I paid the fine on 11th November by credit card.
I was, therefore, surprised and pissed-off to receive another parking charge notice issued 5th March 2006.

I have written to Parkmaven or which they acknowledge receipt with no response. It is impossible to reach them and yet they continue sending demands. Total disregard to consumer rights.

In May 2025 I received a Parking Charge Notice from ParkMaven relating to Heathrow airport parking.

The issue was that the parking had actually been booked and paid for in advance through Compare The Parking. Evidence of the booking was provided during the dispute process.

Despite this, the charge was escalated and eventually passed to debt collectors (DCBL).

Over the following months I attempted to resolve the situation through correspondence and by submitting a Subject Access Request. The documentation provided during that process raised further questions, including inconsistencies about the location associated with the alleged parking event.

The process required dozens of emails and ultimately complaints to the DVLA, the Information Commissioner’s Office and the British Parking Association before the matter finally went quiet.

While the charge now appears to have been abandoned, resolving the issue required an unreasonable amount of time and persistence.

Ignored messages sent via website and emails. Customer service is a disgrace. Will be contacting Ombudsman to resolve the matter that should have been dealt with months ago.

I think it's time consumer rights got involved with this firm. These parking charges are not fine s they are more like alleged breach of contract. It is a civil matter , not a legal one. Popla are the best route for appeals . Trading Standards and consumer rights will be getting letters from me, after they continued to ignore the fact that I was at home with my kids , when the car was in their car park with my ex partner driving. They are ignorant arrogant bullies, that can not do their job properly.

All I will say is they are liars and full of 💩

worst, I have done multiple entries to morrision near my home, they mentioned I stayed more than 2 hours, I also tried to appeal but my PCN number doesnt had letters and it was not allowing me to proceed further, I tried sending few emails how to appeal and the reason, none responded and now got another 100 pound final reminder, not sure what to do next :( just stressfull.

I Wish i can give them negative scores for being the shittiest company. Biggest thugs and scam. DONT PARK in their premises. They send the letters, then we claim and then they send direct letter from Debt collectors with no resolution to claims. This company should be banned!

Parked at King's Dock Mill car park in Liverpool during November 2025. Full day parking booked online. Have just received a £100 fine today 27/02/26 for 'no valid parking session' despite proof from the booking website that parking was paid for. Appeal will be submitted. What nonsense!

This is the second time I have got a parking fine from them for parking in a car park where I have actually signed in the pub with my car registration. Luckily enough the second time I took a photo of the time & date. This second time I actually received two fines stating the same date but two different times of coming & leaving within a minute of each other. There is definitely something wrong here.

I received a penalty after using a hotel car park. There was no signage that reflected the Code of Practice and the penalty notice was 35 days after the parking date, it should be within 14 days.
My objection resulted in the penalty being withdrawn in less than 24 hours.
It is more like dealing with scammers than a legitimate trustworthy company.

I’ve had a very poor experience with ParkMaven. I received multiple parking fines even though I had fully paid for my sessions through the RingGo app. I provided clear evidence of the payments, including timestamps and receipts, yet the fines were still upheld. It’s extremely frustrating to be penalised despite following the rules and proving it. This has caused unnecessary stress and wasted time, and it raises serious concerns about how their system handles valid payments.

Scam company that seems to be operating with impunity .
Wife went into holiday inn in Folkestone to charge her car paid for parking using the QR code provided and then used holiday inn coffee shop whilst waiting she received a £60 fine saying she hadn’t paid , she appealed the fine to be told appeal was refused! She now contacted holiday inn and they’ve said they will get the fine squashed but reading the reviews on trust pilot I’m not holding my breath!.

Holiday inn really needs to look into this company and reconsider their contract with them, it’s a bad reflection on the hotel.

I have received a court summons despite paying for parking and have received nothing until today when the court summons arrived for £290. I am extremely diligent regarding buying tickets to avoid any fines. I am not in a position to pay nearly £300 I'm worried sick and being threatened with a ccj which will affect my job my family my life. I can't cope with this I feel I can't take anymore

Symonds Yat Car Park 14th February 2026 - no internet access on mobile/app that day and the machine equally was not connecting. I tried multiple times to pay (even held onto receipt as evidence) but I received a PCN. I have contested it but I know there were a number of people all with the same issue that day in the car park. So if you see this then you are within your rights to contest as there was NO MEANS TO MAKE PAYMENT.

Absolutely awful people, piled up 3 fines for me and sent them all at once up to 3 weeks after the incidents. Scamming, money thirsty, thieving people.

Just another scam in life being fined £60 for what was an 80p parking session!
