Following the news of the Private Parking Code of Practice, launched by the UK government to reduce parking fines and ban any additional debt collection fees, we’d like to reassure the parking industry that we’re here to help.
The new code of practice has been introduced to primarily crackdown on “cowboy” parking firms and reduce fines issued to customers by up to 50%. However, it will also affect any debt collection companies that are there to follow up with the parking fines, as additional collection fees are to be stopped.
Key IVR can help you adjust to the code of practice and minimise any impact. With years of valuable experience, we’re trusted by some of the largest Car Parking management organisations across the UK.
We have a range of cost-effective services to assist every aspect of the parking industry continue to collect payments quickly, efficiently, and safely. Our specialist products are designed to work alongside your current processes to improve your payment collection strategy.
