i know some of you may think im supid in wanting to pay it but i really just want it out of the way.
so do you think i can just send them a cheque

mcjordi

i wouldnt pay it mate
this happened to me about 3 years ago now, i ignored it and got NO letters at all off these cretins

if i don't pay and i do get letters about it the worst that i can is that i have to pay £60.
cuz if its something worse then its not worth it

You can send me a cheque as well if you like, I'll send you a """fine""" first. Seriously I can understand the wish to make life easy and sending them a cheque is one way. It really is easy to ignore them, just file all the rubbish in a drawer and after a while they'll give you up as a bad job.

If I send you a trumped up invoice will you send me £30? (Paradigm fires up publisher)

They have no more right to your money than I do!

Ignore everything & do not contact them, spend the £30 on a treat for yourself.

I got one of these private parking notices last year, but because I had a company car, my employer paid it and docked it from my salary. If it was my own car, I would NEVER EVER pay them! They will send you letter after letter, becoming increasingly threatening, and eventually sending some sort of intention of court procedings.......this will never happen. They will eventually give up and go away. These private parking enforcement companies are making piles of money out of scaring people, and they are relatively simple to set up...


You too can make illicit profit from private car parking. Check out these cretins selling DIY kits:

yeah, I got my first a few months ago & wasn't sure what to do but some research on a very good website put me in the picture I'm way further down the line than you & guess what? Still no court proceedings!!!

If you feel like you're wavering then post back here for some reassurance.... not paying is the right thing to do.
