Parking Eye....Again

jenkin58

I was parked in Aldi car park, free for 2 hours, unfortunately I stayed for 2 1/2 hours on 12th Dec. Got first Parking charge notice on 24th Dec, I ignored it, got 2nd parking charge notice on 31st Dec (don't you just love their timing) I ignored that one too.
I have now received the 3rd charge notice for the full amount £70.00 with the note that I am no longer allowed to appeal as the 29 days have elapsed. They also say that they may recover via solicitors or court proceedings.
I have ignored everything so far, but I admit I am worrying about it all. I still intend to ignore everything, and will keep you posted on any further charges.
Thanks for all your advice, without it I would have just paid up.

Hi Jenk, iv'e had exactly the same only i tried to pay the £40 fine via visa on the telephone number supplied on the parking eye fine. i then got my 2nd bill a few days later so i contacted visa and was told no payments had been made. i now have the same letter as you asking for £70 with no chance to appeal or even contact them.. ie no telephone number supplied other than the payment line. as i tried to pay for the extra 10 minutes and failed due to a fault with their payments line i am taking the bill to Aldi in the mornin to see if they can get it cancelled. keep in touch and good luck

Welcome to the mad house

At least you found the advice first before coughing up and then finding that its only a begging letter.

Keep on ignoring, put this thread in your favourites and post back if you feelthe need to on any further letters from them.

Hello, I had my parking eye letter yesterday. It's happened to me before outside morrisons in Margate. I looked them up on the net and took all the advise and ignored it that time. This time it was at the retail park in Aberystwyth. 21 minutes over. The letter has bpa and hpc logos on it. Can you tell ( in laymans terms ) if I should ignore it? Considering the new legislation on October 1st? This letter had a leaflet with it about the changes in the 'law'.

No change. Just ignore.

Dear Sir / Madam

What about it? Meaningless.

Hi. I've also had a notice since 13 December from Aldi in Bangor - the computer in the store wasn't working that day so couldn't enter registration. My mother told me to ignore the letters.. I'm still getting them... Shall I continue to ignore?
