    Legally - ignore.

    Morally - using a space for two ticks is a matter for your own conscience.

    So you condone parking (when you are not disabled) in disable spaces, whether they have any legal standing or not?

    And at the moment you look to be condoning discrimination and extortion, so kindly explain yourself?
  • i believe azda;s use TCP'ing. just ignore the peice of bog roll planted on your screen and any other peices of tissue that rolls on your door mat, and store in a cool dry space to refure to if need be.

    allthough i know what i would like to do.

    as lee evens said, give me some of your .... i'll give you some of mine. signed with a big brown mark.

    The OP hasn't let us know who issued the ticket. Our local Asda has a council run car park.

    Yep, because that is exactly what I said.

    Well done, have a Blue Peter badge.

    I don't have to explain myself to anyone, let alone a keyboard warrior. If you want to see my thoughts on PPC's, check my posting history.

    On the whole I have to agree with Fergie76, people who knowingly choose to park in a disabled space (even if it has no legal basis) don't really deserve any help from this forum.

    so therfore anyone caught speeding doesnt deserve any help or anyone who has spent over the odds on shopping doesnt deserve any help with money saving tips, do yopu want to lend a torch? It must be dark stuck that far up your ar*e.
    The op has come asking for advice about the ticket not to be absolved of his sins.
    Be Alert..........Britain needs lerts.

    Instead of judging people on a forum simply on a single post, try answering the questions raised not pass on your morals onto them, if you don't like the question or the actions of a person just go elsewhere.
    Excel Parking, MET Parking, Combined Parking Solutions, VP Parking Solutions, ANPR PC Ltd, & Roxburghe Debt Collectors. What do they all have in common?
    They are all or have been suspended from accessing the DVLA database for gross misconduct!
    Do you really need to ask what kind of people run parking companies?

    Thanks for the info, informative and witty - nice.

    The ticket is issued by 'CMS UK LTD'.

    Like i said earlier, i don't condone parking in a disabled space, but if all the disabled folk in Bolton parked in Asda's carpark - they're would still be room left...

    I might be worth mentioning that the car is a hire car provided through my company, i presume the ticket will go to the hire company then down the ladder to me!

    I'm pretty sure i don#t have to pay - just don#t wanna be hit with a stupid figure a couple of months down the line.

    Ta.

    You need to tell the hire company.

    Tell them you have received an unenforceable invoice for alleged breach of contract and to either a) ignore all correspondence or b) forward everything on to you.

    Tell them you have no agreement with them to pay any such invoices, only legitimate fines and that no agreement exists for them to pay and recover the money from yourself. Tell them no agreement exists to pay any administration charge.

    Mention that you expect them to know about private parking invoices as a legitimate hire company and that you expect letters to arrive from CMS, Roxburghe Debt Collection Agency and Graham White and that it is a well known mail s c a m.
