Highview Parking Charge

jonnyd214

Hi,

I have seen a couple of threads on here by people who seem to have received a similar charge letter, rather than just posting onto one of those I created this thread to keep cases separate. I received recently a letter from Highview Parking for overstaying in a Tesco car park by a few hours. I have used this car park before for varying times without receiving such a charge.

Could someone please tell me what the next step would be in a possible appeal, and also a template email to challenge this would be appreciated.

Thanks

First port of call is back to Tesco to complain to the Store Manager (NOT to the teenager on the CS desk, the STORE MANAGER). Tesco can cancel these if customers complain quickly. That's the easiest approach first - especially if you are a Clubcard customer waving a pile of receipts & being really assertive about the scam fake fine. EVEN if you overstayed by hours, just COMPLAIN and ask for it to be cancelled as you are a regular customer.

If not, if having to appeal, you just need to send a short challenge to the scammers like on this thread:

Or like the ones Parking Prankster used recently to seriously annoy and then to defeat Highview; have a laugh! A must-read for anyone with a Highview fake PCN!

After the first challenge there's a second stage when Highview reject your appeal; you send a strong appeal to POPLA if rejected.

Parking Prankster has done so lots of times, with a short/funny appeal first then a serious one to POPLA (we can guide you to the right strong POPLA stage wording). If the funny versions don't appeal use one from the examples I first linked.

You won't be paying this so have some fun with it.
