Really ? I think I'll await an update from real people such as Bargepole, Prankster or KIL before believing a PPC employee.
EDIT - It's "too" not "to" but given the poor grasp of language on PPC websites I'm not surprised you got it wrong."The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis." - Dante Alighieri0 -
Welcome Perky, if this has been lost it goes to a court of appeal where the decision will be binding on parking eye. The whole scam can be brought to its knees thereWhen posting a parking issue on MSE do not reveal any information that may enable PPCs to identify you. They DO monitor the forum.
We don't need the following to help you.
Name, Address, PCN Number, Exact Date Of Incident, Date On Invoice, Reg Number, Vehicle Picture, The Time You Entered & Left Car Park, Or The Amount of Time You Overstayed.

OK, fair enough, I've now had confirmation as well. Will be interesting to see why though. Thankfully POPLA is still the best route !"The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis." - Dante Alighieri0

Yes I know mate, but the court of appeal is where it will be binding upon the parties, and it will depend whether the two parties involved want to take it furtherWhen posting a parking issue on MSE do not reveal any information that may enable PPCs to identify you. They DO monitor the forum.

The suspense is killing how much longer will we have to wait.0

Hmmm .... not going to say where I got it from but apparently the charges WERE ruled as penalties but commercially justifiable. Kind of turns contract law on it's head !"The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis." - Dante Alighieri0

Could be a strong appeal pointOne important thing to remember is that when you get to the end of this sentence, you'll realise it's just my sig.0

The 'test cases' heard at Cambridge on 22nd April (3JD05152 PE v Beavis, and 3JD05169 PE v Wardley) had the Judgment handed down today at Southend by HHJ Moloney QC.
He has decided in favour of the Claimants, on the basis that although the parking charges can be classed as penalties, there is 'commercial necessity' for them, as without them PE would be unable to operate, and their landowner clients would not be able to manage their car parks.
Permission to appeal this decision was granted by the Judge, on the basis that there were no authorities for commercial justification in cases involving consumers, and he has directed that any appeal is leapfrogged straight to the Court of Appeal.
The two defendants now have 21 days to decide whether they wish to appeal. A further update will be given when available.
I have been providing assistance, including Lay Representation at Court hearings (current score: won 57, lost 14), to defendants in parking cases for over 5 years. I have an LLB (Hons) degree, and have a Graduate Diploma in Civil Litigation from CILEx. However, any advice given on these forums by me is NOT formal legal advice, and I accept no liability for its accuracy.0
