    Hi I need a bit of advice urgently regarding an unpaid private parking fine,basically story is this. a few months ago I went to visit a friend in potters bar and then we went to eat at local restaurant, without paying much attention I drove into this small car park thinking it was the restaurant parking,however, a couple of weeks later i received a letter through the post demanding £100 for parking without permit. i wasn't aware and tbh i didn't pay attention to the signs as it was 6:30 in evening, most car parks are free at that time normally. they sent many letters but i just kept ignoring them all and binned the letters, today i have received a letter from County Court Business Centre which consists of "Particulars of Claim", "Schedule of information" and letter.please let me know what steps i should take, i am aware that i have to acknowledge the letter but do i have any chance of defending this in court or is it simply matter of paying up stupid thugs!

    I can send you actual documents if required to fully assess. thanks

    PS;I am a laws biding citizen and it was an honest mistake but don't want these thugs take my hard earn money.

    You would be better posting on the parking tickets board as they are more familiar with the specialised arguments in these cases.

    It is a bit late in the process to start defending this but maybe not too late. You are right that you should acknowledge service online, which gives you 28+5 days from the issue date, to lodge your defence

    The other good source of advice would be

    Hi
    I keep getting court letters sent to my home for the previous owner who won't change his address.
    I've even had court bailiffs turn up for him.
    He's even sent me a txt to say he is expecting post and could i let him know as it's from the court. i keep asking him to change his address but he won.t.
    It's like a form of harassment.
