It has recently been disclosed that Euro car parks UK has been issued the first ever largest fine to a private parking company. In excess of £470,000! It is about time, the arrogance of it's owner shows that even when the CMA requested information it was legally bound to give. It failed to do so stating " it thought it was being scammed" poetic justice I would say. Now that the boot is on the other foot. They even tried to weasel out by trying to get an injunction from being named and shamed. But the high court rejected it, and quite rightly so. It is about time Mr Barry Malcolm Tucker gets a taste of his own medicine!!. In march.of 2025 they where fined £20,000 by the ICO and Kent county council for using " aggressive tactics". And then in December of 2025 where issued the CMA fine. I wonder what they didn't want the CMA to find out!. This company on its own issued 1.9 m PCN notices in 1 year!. And they complain when they get a heavy fine for non compliance, very much on the lines of how they treat the public when they have a genuine dispute with them regarding a PCN and how they persue the recipient. And then trying to get an injunction to stop being named and shamed. Very much the workings of Mr Barry Malcolm Tucker, being a solicitor tried the " old boys club" and I'm happy to say it backfired. This is what you get when you have a practising solicitor who owns a number of parking related buisnesses, whilst also running and owning 21 offices throughout the UK as a lawyer!!. They don't want to be named and shamed, because in his ultimate wisdom this individual thinks he and his companies are beyond reproach or accountability. I think the CMA did the right thing in this instance, and I think their will be more of these " parasite parking companies bought to book". Personally I am still being persued by a company representing Euro car parks through the courts. " Acting on his behalf" as they put it. More needs to be imposed on these companies they need to be hit hard, as I am certain Mr Barry Malcolm Tucker is most dissatisfied with the outcome, and I believe is appealing this fine in the high court, having had the injunction rejected. I sincerely hope that the same judge decided on the appeal!!?.
