End wanted to ParkingEye ticket

DRCUK

Having spoken to the Parking Cowboys they kindly directed me to this forum for some advise on my Parking dispute

I received a ticket off PE and ignored all following letters, I received my court letter and acknowledged on line, I purchased the Parking Pranksters guide to fighting PE, I used his advice to submit an initial defence and the court has been changed to my local one. PE sent a huge response to my defence and detailed that they are willing to conduct court mediation to end the dispute, yet on their N180 form they ticked 'No' to being referred to mediation services....I recently email PE direct titled 'Without prejudice save to cost', here I went in low and offered £30 to settle with them, with a hope or an offer from them....no reply as yet!

Basically this year I have my wedding to organise along with a honeymoon, be best man at my dad’s wedding, 2 stag dos, whilst working shifts and currently applying for a new job. With so much going on this year I just want an end to this constant background issue.

How can I just agree a settle with PE and end this once and for all?

Pay whatever they are asking.

But its worth defending against, can you afford or want to lose £160 for doing a bit of leg work to settle this matter? Have you made complaints to the retailer/service provider who parking eye are agents of? Away worth a complaint in that angle

with both mse forum help and prankster help, this one settled for £20 http://parking-prankster.blogspot.co.uk/

so no reason why they wouldnt agree, especially if the judge or court found out they had gone to court when you were offering a settlement

even better if the actual person who should be in court (the landowner - the one with locus standii) cancelled the charge on your behalf

Hmmm... :mad:

Was the offer you made compliant with the Civil Procedure Rules (Part 36)?

If they have said they agree to mediation, then you could write to them and ask them to agree to a stay in proceedings and to allow you access to POPLA (easily winnable).

As has been said, contact the landowner.

I have the store managers email address in the defence sent by PE, an email to him cant hurt can it? any advise on what to say?

As a loyal customer you are being taken to court by their agent, and that you will not be returning to the store as a result, as well as telling all of your family/friends.

Was you offer compliant with the procedure rules?

Is the store the well known Switch and Save one ?

DRCUK

I dont know what the procedure rules are? So prob not im guessing?
Id be happy to negotiate with them and settle on a resonable cost as opposed to the £160 they want.

It was the Range store

Oh Range, they haven't got the best record of getting these things cancelled. Kick up a stink on their Facebook page.

Does anyone have a citation for the £20 case?
