    I can assure you that I would definitely have plenty of value to add to your question - but with your attitude, I certainly won’t now!
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

    If I want to post 100 threads I can do so there is no law on here to say otherwise. I wasn't aware of any law and didn't know you was the MSE police. I have taken what you have said into consideration and have removed previous post.

    A successful complaint about ParkingEye at the infamous Chelmsford Riverside Retail Park (of the Beavis case):

    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.php?t=5758472
    This is the contact for the car park owners CBRE that we were given by the store manager at Riverside Retail Park:

    Charlie.Gardiner-Graham@cbre.com

    They were very polite and helpful, unlike Equita!

    I am so glad that someone else other than myself has suffered the wrath of a superior being. I gave up posting as I didn't have a clue what I was doing. All I got was a load of vitriol when I commented I didn't know the difference between a sticky, post, thread and my left elbow (which is slightly !!!!!!! - in the medical term).

    Morrisons must be heartily sick of ParkingEye by now.

    A couple of weeks ago, PE sent us a speculative invoice for £85 claiming that our vehicle had overstayed its welcome at Morrisons, Ross-on-Wye by nearly 5 hours.

    Having obtained proof that the vehicle had made two separate visits to the car park lasting less than an hour each, we submitted a strong email of complaint to [EMAIL="donotreply@morrisonsplc.co.uk"]donotreply@morrisonsplc.co.uk[/EMAIL].

    Two working days later, Morrisons replied to confirm that the PCN had been cancelled..

    Retailer: Sainsbury's Superstore, Salford
    Whoever cancelled it: Julie - Duty Manager at Sainsbury's, Salford
    PPC: Euro Car Parks (ECP)
    Car park: right outside Sainsbury's, Salford
    Incident date: 16/01/2018
    Scam: Pay £70 (£40 within 14 days)
    Mum's PCN came through post (no windscreen) on 25/01/2018. Crime is for shopping (parking) over 3 hours in Sainsbury's on 16/01/2018. Googled, read first link, NEWBIES guide, 'nuff read. Went in store and called down the Duty Manager, she promptly stated ECP is a different company and she can't do anything about it. Yet she was pretty confused why someone would want to give their custom to her shop for over 3 hours. Very sceptical and dying to know the truth she turned to her boy at the security stand for a glimpse into the past and confirmed CCTV footage of my mum walking in more than 3 hours before the time printed on Sainsbury's receipt. After seeing that she came to her senses and remembered her job as Duty Manager was to retain customers and offered to email ECP and cancel the PCN. Next day got a call from Sainsbury's in the evening for the good news.
    I hope this will be useful for all who use that particular car park and thanks to all contributors on these threads.
