Double Recovery Challenge

Operators cannot recover both from the driver and the keeper. If payment has been made by anyone, no further recovery is permitted.

Legal basis

POFA 2012 Schedule 4, Paragraph 4(6) - 'this is not to be read as permitting double recovery'.

How to identify this in your case

If you know the driver paid, or another keeper claim was settled, double recovery is prohibited.

Sample appeal wording

I understand that this parking charge has already been paid by [NAME], the driver at the time, on or around [DATE]. POFA 2012 Schedule 4 Paragraph 4(6) expressly states that nothing in the Schedule permits double recovery. As the charge has been satisfied, no further sum is due from me or any other party. Please confirm the matter is closed.

Replace [PARKING DATE], [NtK DATE] etc. with your own dates before sending.
