Well there is one note we can all end on with agreement. NOBODY appreciates abuse of P&C facilities. How we tackle the issue may differ among all of us but the bottom line, abuse is unacceptable. Cheers.

You are quite right Renegade. Sending abusive phonecalls and letters to them is counter-productive. You will be drawing attention to yourself and also possibly breaking the law (committing an offence under the Telecommunications Act or even amounting to Harassment if you have sent multiple letters). I suppose you could send them anomynously, but whats the point in that they KNOW they are HATED and many of which are SCUMMERS!

Plus hat will only add strength to their case should decide to take it to court, they would draw on the abusive calls/ letters to show to the judge/ magistrate (I don't how it works in civil courts) to show them you are a 'screwloose' or irrational. Best just to leave it and make NO COMMUNCATION whatsoever with them. Like all bullies they are just waiting for someone to take the bait. Once you have confirmed/ supplied your details or confirming you were driving etc it makes their job EASIER!! Why would we want to go an do a thing like that?? Let them waste their money on letters/ DVLA car checks etc!

If you intend to press an organisation for harassment, you will need some form of proof that the actions were tormenting you. This is why it is best to send one letter, and do so via recorded delivery. This way, they won't be able to deny receiving the post AND they'll have been warned "stop it now, this is harassment, sue me - or back down". The onus is now 101% on them - if they dare send a single letter on the subject which is dated after your requisition, they will land themselves is very deep water.

I have received a response from the Asda Legal Director. She has requested my friend or me to send her details of my friend's appeal with regards the PCN. I have politely refused (on behalf of my friend or me) to provide her with these details and have instead provided her with the Youtube clip at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAIcdi9niHA of the BBC Watchdog programme and asked her to respond accordingly.

Anyone else think that I won't get a response ?

I will let you know if I get anything back.

Shame on Asda & the other s/markets for deliberately profiteering by scamming their customers via PPCs.

They won't accept it so you may get a collection of threatograms, possibly not. Best way out now is just ignore everything...don't feel threatened by any ominous looking wording.

I'm somewhat surprised to return to this thread and see that the argument continues.

I do not qualify any longer for a BB but am still disabled and Flyboy, for one, would readily agree if they were to see me that the disability was real. As a consequence I generally no longer park in the disabled spaces not because I am concerned about a ticket (bring that on) but because I have respect for the convenience of others who retain their BB. As explained earlier I shop at times of the day when there are fewer shoppers, I can take my time and have a little elbow room and I will use a disabled space then.

The attitude of supermarkets I can understand and deal with even though I disagree with it. What I find difficult to deal with occasionally is the attitude of my fellow man. Their shopping is more urgent and important that anyone else's; they can park where they feel like because they spend £x per week as opposed to the next man who spends just £y and their car is bigger/better/more expensive/ridiculous than anyone else's. I wonder, do these people not understand the meaning of the word compromise, a word most disabled people will be very familiar with?

Don't worry, an inability to compromise isn't just a symptom of the able-bodied world it is exists within the disabled one too. "My condition is more serious then yours" blah blah blah.

If there was one thing I would want supermarkets to improve it has nothing whatsoever to do with their car parks. I would prefer that aside from making simple provision for wheelchair access into the stores that they actually made their stock wheelchair-accessible. I simply cannot reach top shelves and sometimes the two top shelves and the use of offer baskets dumped into the middle of aisles or at the edge of deli/fishmonger displays is a real problem.

I know that there is no easy cure for the car park situation and the supermarkets have just listened to the loudest voices that coincidentally provide an easy and convenient answer - unfortunately it smells a little like lip-service to me. Something else you get used to as a disabled person, not that I mind that so much, its the inevitable condescension and air of over-inflated magnanimity that goes with it.

yes its not nice to park in disabled bays or p+c bays,,

When I see fat mothers with fat children parking right outside the shop I think they ought to be forced to walk from the very furthest point in the car park. Guess what...kids need exercise and so do overweight parents!

But the children need to stay safe from errant motorists, don't they?
