Euro Car Parks: What's Proven, What's Under Appeal and What's Still Under Investigation?

Three columns. Established public record, matters under appeal, and matters under investigation. The distinction is the point.

Direct answer

This page separates what is established in the public record from what is under appeal and what is still under investigation. It is the single most important page on the site for any reader who wants to know what is actually known — and what is not.

Established public record
  • The CMA issued a £473,000 Final Enforcement Notice.
  • The CMA said Euro Car Parks failed, without reasonable excuse, to comply with an information notice.
  • The CMA described seven attempts to secure a response.
  • Euro Car Parks eventually supplied the requested information.
  • The High Court refused an interim injunction against publication.
  • Euro Car Parks appealed the penalty.
  • The CMA opened a separate consumer investigation in July 2026.
Under appeal
  • The £473,000 enforcement penalty.

Update this column when the appeal is determined, withdrawn, or the Court orders otherwise.

Under investigation
  • Petrol-station practices.
  • Parking charges relating to forecourt activity.
  • Appeals processes.

No substantive consumer-law finding yet.
