Thank you all for your advice, particularly chrisvaldez. I will pass on the info to my boyfriend.
It seems so unfair that he now has to pay out nearly a months wages. Oh well.

But fair for the employer to pay it right?

Sorry, I don't understand the whole permit thing. Did Dominos have borough wide permits for their vehicles? CPZ permits are issued to specific cars linked to the registered address. Also unless it was a daytime delivery usually in Lambeth most parking zones finish at 18.30.

If he put the permit on the dashboard where it should have been, and the car got towed then the permit will still be there. So when he goes to collect the car he can prove he left the permit in view; unless he's telling porkies and forgot to put it out.

Bingo. That's precisely what I was thinking.

Methinks the bf forgot to put the display up and is telling fibs to get himself off the hook.

Same thought, the vehicle should have the permit, not the driver?

Many years ago I stopped in a car park for a town centre that had free disk parking only to discover that I couldn't find my disk. I knew the shop on the corner (20 feet away from the car park, I swear!) had then so I checked there wasn't a parking man in site, ran all the way there and back - a matter of a minute! - and the !!!!!!! had ticketed me and disappeared without a trace. I swaer he was hiding in the bushes the whole time

Course - I still had to pay up!

ticketing i can understand, it takes a matter of seconds, but being towed takes a while.
