  • its taken SOOOOO long but the results of a appeal came through this morning.

    i won :D
    it seems my email was take into consideration :)

    Thank you so much haha :D

    "It is the Operator’s case that a vehicle with the registration mark XXXXXX
    was recorded entering the site at 20:26 and exiting at 21:17, recording a total
    stay of 51 minutes without displaying a valid ticket/permit for parking.
    It is the Appellant’s case that the Operator has no legal capacity to issue and
    enforce parking charge notices and that the charge sought is a unlawful
    penalty.
    The Appellant has submitted that the parking charge does not reflect the
    Operator’s loss, and so is not enforceable. The Operator has not addressed
    this submission.
    It appears to be the Appellant’s case that the parking charge represents a
    sum for specified damages, in other words compensation agreed in
    advance. Accordingly, the charge must represent a genuine pre-estimate of
    the loss caused by the alleged breach.
    The Operator does not appear to dispute that the sum represents damages,
    and has not attempted to justify the charge as a genuine pre-estimate of loss.
    Consequently, I have no evidence before me to refute the Appellant’s
    submission that the parking charge is unenforceable.
    Accordingly, I must allow the appeal."
