    I would be glad you paid it because now you don't have to worry about it any more

    But other people on here are more assertive and stick up for their rights!

    But you need a lot of guts for that I think

    so by that logic, i can send you a letter saying that you now owe me £3,000,000 for replying directly to your comment and you will just pay that so you dont have to worry about it any more? didnt think so...

    just out of curiosity, as the OP has paid, is there any way he/she is able to do either a chargeback, or try and get the payment reclaimed?

    u guys are so assertive and strong-willed, i really don't know how you do it

    i would be a quivering wreck if i was worrying about a big parking company coming after me, they can be terrifying in their tactics

    3 years on here must be a record. Maybe you should share your secret with less successful PPC trolls.

    A big parking company? Which one is that? Most are just tiny little outfits with a handful of staff but they give the impression that they are big.

    :p Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) :p Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. :p

    What ARE these terrifying tactics you speak of?

    Sending letters misrepresenting the law? You must scare quite easily.

    It appears to troll other forums instead of coming in here.

    So what were you hoping to contribute to this thread, given that you obviously know nothing whatever about parking issues?

    i am of a very nervous disposition and i dislike confrontations

    for some people, getting into trouble with a parking company is more than paying the fine is worth


    we are the same people that would give the school bully our dinner money so as not to get thumped

    Either way, there is no confrontation in not responding to them and the only hassle is a few letters when dealing with PPCs.

    Nothing to be scared about at all.
