G24 Ltd using debt recovery agency

soannoyed

Hi everyone.
Like all of you, I received that G24 letter with 2 nice pictures of my car with 15min over parking in a staples carpark.

I would be happy to ignore them, but unfortunatelly, I didn't look into this before I replied to them. I didn't pay them, I wrote a letter asking for a graceful gesture from them as that day I was parked there because I was very sick and I was actually waiting in the A&E of the hospital. There was a long wait and I had completely forgotten that there was a 2hours limit on parking. It's only when someone else told reception that they were going to move their car that It hit me. So I went to do the same thing but it was too late. Not by much but too late.
Also mentioned to them that I didn't have the money. I was already late to pay my rent because I wasn't getting paid what I was due and I was unemployed.
Anyway, they replied saying I just admitted to the offense and have to pay the fee.

Now I'd like to ignore them, but my thoughts are with the fact that I acknowledged the offense by writing that letter.

What do you think I should do?

Ignore them.

They STILL haven't got a legal leg to stand on.

You haven't committed an offense - get them to point you to the law they think you've broken !

Anyway, ignore them, G24 are liars and tax evaders ( and I have the evidence ) and don't have the guts to do court.

You didn't acknowledge any "offence", because there wasn't one.

Concentrate on getting better, sorting out either your old employer or the DWP and the job hunting.

Thanks guys, I will ignore then.

Although I've started a thread about G24, I'd thought I'd join what seems to be the official MSE 'G24 merry-go-round'.

Very briefly, our son attended a job interview & parked his car in the car park, as the job interviews were intially block interviews followed by individual interviews, he overstayed the 2 hours 'allowed'( at no time did T-R-Us mention whether or not he was using the car park or remind him of the car park limits)

Has now received a parking charge notice from G24 for £75, if payment not received within 28 days they will forward the outstanding DEBT ?? to a debt recovery agency which may add additional admin charges of £35. (Fat Chance - bring it on )

Reassured my son that its best to ignore (as per advice on my thread).

So let the games begin :rotfl:

The thought of receiving a "graceful gesture" from a PPC is, to say the least amusing. The only gesture you are likely to get, is either a two fingered one, or a one fingered one.
