    Even Council PCNs, and police FPNs come to that, are merely 'offers'.
    Look up 'Notice' in a proper legal dictionary.

    Interestingly, council PCNs. and police FPNs, contain Offer, Acceptance and Contract.

    Even this site calls them tickets http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/reclaim/private-parking-tickets

    Under contract law, private firms can give you a ticket, clamp you or remove your vehicle when you break, in their eyes, a contract formed between yourself and the landowner to allow you to park on their property.

    So now anyone who says otherwise is a proven liar.

    I would strongly suggest that you refer to the very well known case law.
    It is a dangerous thing to call senior judges 'proven liars'.

    I think the "in their eyes" negates the contract law issue as it is reffering to an unfounded opinion. i was refering to the use of the unoficial term "ticket" being wrong for a PCN whether it is unenforceable is another issue.
    Maybe I should have punctuated my post better.

    Parking Charge notice

    Penalty charge notice

    Potential con-job notice, any bit of paper in a pouch they stick on your screen or under a window a kid on parking fine.

    Don't be so bitter. You need to let these things go. Move on with your life.

    If you are ignoring him what does it matter if it was a reply or not ?

    You are not supposed to be interested anyway.

    As for people who post drivel, there is alot of it about mate.

    I was shopping in Asda this morning only to come back to the car to find a parking ticket, from a private company ! The ticket is because i didnt pay in the pay and display but with two screaming children and no change I foolishly decided to just go shopping! I usually go to Morrisons which is free to park, but thought no I will try Asda for a change never again ! Do i pay the fine of £30 as after ten days it goes to £60 and then if that is not paid they will take further action ?

    Pay them nothing and never talk to them. It's not a fine though it's an invoice for a contract you never agreed to.
