OPC Private Parking Fine at Telford Bridge Retail Park

  • I recieved one in November too... got the letter through today. I never saw a sign, so I completely agree with you that there is not enough signs and would be completely willing to state this in court. I'm going to go down the local police station to see if I can back up the claims on here and other forums that we do not need to pay it, as I'm left rather confused.

    You don't need to go to the police to get that reassurance. Please believe the good folks on here that you do not have to pay anything. The best plan is to just ignore the parking company. There is nothing to be "confused" about.
    What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?

    The police will say it is a civil matter.

    Yeah ...good move.

    After all a plod is going to know more than the 20000+ posts on here that have been shown to be correct, time after time.

    Why do people believe that the reception desk jockey at the local police station is a legal expert [!!!!!!, they usually aren't even police officers""]!!!!!

    What exactly do you believe that PC Plod will tell you that we're not telling you???

    That's the best outcome. Worse, you will get incorrect advice from someone who thinks they know the law, but actually doesn't. And, like the incorrect advice that the CAB tends to give out, they'll recommend paying, because they don't understand the difference between these and "proper" tickets from the police or council.

  • What part of IGNORE IGNORE IGNORE is confusing?

    If you have Googled and found this forum thread, you are reading an old, out of date thread.

    stop reading now and click to the current forum instead!!!!!!!

    do not ignore a fake pcn, the advice changed in early 2013 and you can now win at POPLA or other independent appeal. Read the sticky threads because you need to learn what will win at appeal. Mitigating circumstances (normal appeals) will lose.

    SO WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? SEE MY SIGNATURE FOR WHERE TO CLICK ONE CLICK TO GET TO PAGE ONE. READ THE STICKY THREADS AT THE TOP (ADVICE & INFO FOR YOU TO WIN AT APPEAL).
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
    CLICK at the top or bottom of any page where it says:

  • Hi. How did you get on? I noticed this was a while ago. I've recently received one from Parking Eye for Telford Bridge Retail Park. Any successes by simply ignoring?
  • OP has not been on since 2011 so can't help you. Start your own thread and people here will be able to help you. Please give more detail.
    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.
