Contractual Parking Notice G24

campcook

I've just this notice to pay £60. Apparently parking is limited to 2 hours but I was not aware of this. It was during the busy Christmas period so it would have been difficult to read signs whilst negotiating traffic. Also as there was so much traffic queuing to get in and out (where it was gridlocked!) 2 hours seems an unfair time limit. Should I pay?

If you care to read all the other threads on here that deal with private parking tickets then you will realise that you don't have to pay. Just ignore. That's the best plan.

Please take the time to do the research on this board including reading the stickies. The advice is clear- ignore, the charge is legally unenforceable. We have all ignored these Mickey Mouse notices and nothing nasty happended, it is a scam.

Thanks for the advice - I'm still standing firm after receiving a "notice", a letter and a "final notice". I agree with others posting on this - it is bully boy tactics. Unfortunately the notices don't come to me they go to my partner (the registered owner) and he would cave in and pay the charge. I have to grab the letters before he does!

I have said this on another similar thread: SHOW HIM it's a scam!

When I got a fake PCN 4 years ago, the one who dithered and worried about the threatograms was my husband. He is far too trusting and believing in what looks like authority which is hilarious as he has a job involving a level of genuine authority! I laughed when I first saw the fake PCN (was secretly delighted as I knew about this scam) and chuckled at every letter until it stopped. And I kept the letters for posterity; they are in my handbag now ready to convince anyone in doubt about this complete and obvious con, if I ever hear about a friend with a fake PCN. I have stopped several people from paying or appealing and they have just waited until the predictable threatograms stop.

And the letters will stop. Nothing else happens.

Has your bf seen the Watchdog video linked on the top thread, and the preview pics of each letter? It's only a matter of playing 'PPC snap' now.:D

Thank you your other half sounds just like mine. Yes I've shown him the evidence but he still frets about "official" looking notices and worries about debt collectors knocking on the door, credit ratings etc. I can see how some may just cave in and pay - I won't. This is just bully-boy tactics and totally unnecessary. Thank you for your comments.

Let me have his name and address, campcook, and I will send him the official-looking letter to end all official-looking letters, demanding a tidy sum of money, when he coughs up we'll go halves, O.K.?:rotfl::rotfl:

My turn to join in !!!! Note my username and tell your other ( lesser obviously ) half to ignore the scammers ! G24 don't even adhere to the contracts THEY sign up to with people like Nominet. Why on earth should you follow their contracts ? G24 are nothing but a bunch of money grabbing scammers who have constantly refused my challenges to talk to me about their fake fines and bullying ways. Cowards of the highest order. IGNORE them.

Not quite but let's admit it - all these PPCs are scammers equal to G24 !!!!

And yet again I'll lay down the gauntlet to G24 to PM me and explain how they con parents taking their kids swimming locally at Shoreham out of lots of money. Dirty rotten scoundrels :mad:

Thankfully I never pay one of their illegal invoices :rotfl:

What you need to do, if not aleady doing it, is to prepare your own ticket telling them not to pay but to contact us, and leave it underneath the fake ticket which the PPC puts on the car.
