Nobody is complaining about that. What people object to is the penalties demanded by the parking companies that bear no relation to the actual losses suffered by the landowner, and the fact that the PPCs act as judge and jury.What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?0 -

Well they can waste their money on ANPR, paying the DVLA for registered keeper details and then umpteen debt collector letters in the post...but they can't make people pay!
Watchdog this week at last gave the right advice re unfair private ANPR parking tickets:

You only need take a parking ticket seriously if it comes from the Council or the Police. End of.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Please explain how CP Plus achieve this in a lawful way.0 -
If Roadchef want to control access to land they need to employ a system which allows them to do so - have they not heard of parking barriers and ticket machines?
Set the barrier to allow free exit before two hours, after that there's a charge.0 -

Roadchef have appointed them as their agents to control parking on this site. The site is private property and is monitored by CCTV. This is all perfectly legal. They don't break any specific laws by sending invoices for people who overstay the 2 hour limit, but the recipient has no obligiation to pay unless ordered to do so by a court."You were only supposed to blow the bl**dy doors off!!"0 -
Think of how much these ppc's are helping the post office to stay in business.I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.0
