    Wait until Coupon Mad comes along, she is the specialist in the equality act and will probably draft a letter that will see Parking Eye drop this very quickly.

    You have come to the right place and I'm sure Prankster and his team will do all they can to help you. If you have already filed a defence based on mitigation, this is a bit of a problem. You could still be lucky on the day, but the judge will rule on legal issues and that is why you need advice and support (all free) from here.

    Sadly the British Legion won't be able to help much, they even have a private parking company associated with them. The help you need is right here, follow it and you will have the best chance of beating Parking Eye.

    That "pay us £50 and we will drop the case" is yet another cynical ploy by this disreputable company. I hope Ms. Ledson is proud of herself.

    Glad to see you are getting the British Legion involved. PE need a dose of cold steel up em. Compare and contrast, old soldiers who have been proud to serve their country and put themselves in mortal danger, and that lot at PE who, like most bullies would run a mile if somebody stands up to them.

    I think they sold that off to another company and no longer have any connection with it.

    this dispicable company relies on a ANPR system and a receptionist to input the details to tell the system to disregard the reg No.Problem on the day was his appointment was made for 11.30am and when he arrived the receptionist said that it was impossible to have app at that time as they dont start the surgery until 1.30 ish.the doctor walked past him as his carer was talking to reception and was called back to chat quickly and said he would see him within 30 mins.as soon as he saw him he admitted him.so in all the confusion we suggested that the receptionist forgot to log the car in but they are not interested.even if no one can be found to be at fault it is parking eye who should take it on the chin.my problem no is his carer is away for 2 weeks and we have 5 days left to pay or have him shuffle to court on the date.I tried phoning PE but its an automated system.should i e-mail them,at least it would prove that communication lines on our side are trying to communicate.

    Can you just wait until a little later, Coupon Mad who is up on this should be along shortly, she has the Equality Act 2010 tied down, she is very good on putting things together that may help

    I think she has the Brighton v Derby match to contend with at the moment!
