Hi guys
Help please if possible.
I know there are alot of posts on here about 'parking eye' and paying their parking charge - basicially i dont pay it, right? I was actually shopping in the said store at the time so might send them a letter anyway enclosing my receipt.
confirmation would be a massive help
cheers:rotfl:

The whole private parking business relies on misrepresentation of authority. They are not the council, police, or government, so they can't legally issue fines or penalties. All they have sent you is a civil invoice, which you have no legal obligation to pay or acknowledge.
Contacting them is generally a waste of time, their appeals process is worthless as it is not run by an impartial third party but rather by themselves so it's obviously within their interests to reject it.
Over 99.9% of the time they will not take you to court, because the more times they take people to court, and lose, the more chance that other members of the public get to hear that the invoices can be ignored. This would then lead to parking companies having no income because there would be no more gullible people left!
Taking people to court actually hurts their business ... Which is why they hardly ever try it.The word "gullible" isn't in the dictionaryTickets: 19 [cancelled: 18, paid: 0, pending: 1]
