Parking eye **fine** pls help!!!!!
Comments

My daughter has recieved Parking eye letter demanding payment. She is a student at university with no means to pay the £120 fine ,they are now demanding. We have ignored previous 2 letters as suggested on various forums, but its the threat of Baliffs & CCJ that are now really concerning me. She was 8 mins over the allocated time limit, not sure if it was her or her boyfriend driving car. She is also a learner driver, so if it was her driving, she is only a novice to the learning skills of parking. Any advice welcome....I dont want to encourage her into ignoring payments if this is a legal company. ??
Companies cannot just "issue" a CCJ.
To get a CCJ ALL the following has to happen:
1 She is taken to court
2 She loses
3 She then still does not pay up within 28 days.
Equally, bailiffs cannot become involved until the same three things have happened, which of course they won't.
Please don't confuse bailiffs with powerless debt collectors who can only send begging letters. Carry on ignoring their stupid threats.0 -

You forgot :-
4) The parking company apply for a "warrant of execution"
5) The court grants the above.
Steps 4 & 5 are even less likely than the first three!!!!0
