flag Euro Car Parks fined £473,000 for ignoring seven data requests, highlighting scrutiny of private parking practices under new UK rules.

flag In February 2026, Euro Car Parks was fined £473,000 for ignoring seven information requests, highlighting growing scrutiny over private parking practices. flag The company, which issued 1.9 million tickets annually, is part of the British Parking Association and must follow the Single Code of Practice introduced in June 2024. flag This code, fully enforceable by December 2026, sets rules including a 10-minute grace period, clear signage, a £100 charge cap (reduced to £60 if paid early), and an appeals process. flag It also protects vulnerable users like Blue Badge holders. flag While not all operators comply, members cannot access DVLA data, limiting enforcement. flag Drivers should use the appeals process if they believe a ticket is unfair.
