Athena ANPR - Lidl Store

dgkent

Just received notice of parking contravention. It was my car but not me driving (I was elsewhere at the time). This car park serves a Lidl store where the driver shopped !. LIDL should be ashamed to be associated with Athena. needless to say all communications straight to shredder...........

I've just had a quick skim over athena's site and I've got to admit I'm pretty disappointed. unlike some of the all dancin' all singin' sites operated by other scammers this one looks like it was cobbled together by a sixth-former while jumping around to the kings of leon.

keep that shredder well-serviced..

Seems they have the power to "fine" as well. Numpties

"Payments are requested from offenders within agreed time periods and include prompt payment reductions, full payment and enforcement cut offs. To maximise fine collections success, Athena ANPR offers a range of payment methods including via post, website, automated telephone via keypad and by telephone to our dedicated contact centre"

"Each appeal shall be considered on a case by case basis taking into account the evidence provided and any special circumstances. and each appeal shall be deemed to be unfounded because we are always right and you are idiots whom are WRONG"

Okay, I might have made the last sentence up. Ignore ignore and ignore some more

Or (thanks to Pepipoo) :- they keep a monkey at their office, who has been trained to open letters and, although it cannot actually read them, to immediately press a designated character on a keyboard (perhaps marked with a banana symbol) which then produces a letter of reply.
