    We has considered your appeal and believe that the ticket was correctly issued in this case. I know the cemetery personally and there are several signs stating terms and conditions of burial.
    We have forwarded a POPLA code but would advise that Death is merely mitigation.

    Thanks owd Trev, but since when have you been working for PE?

    Have the BPA seconded you there as an advisory consultant in their efforts to help Rachel and 'drive up standards'?
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

    I notice on Parking Eye's website there is a "media and PR" section on their "contact us" page. I have emailed them asking for their comments on PP's blog on this matter. I'm not holding my breath.

    Incidentally I also noticed that their website is presenting the Beavis case as a done deal and a victory for PE. For some unaccountable reason they have forgotten to mention that the case has actually gone to appeal. I imagine that's just an simple mistake on their part. ;)
    What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?
  • Tower Road is owned by the golf club, who lease it to parkingeye. A complaint to the golf club is in order, but only as a long term strategy to show what kind of people they are leasing to, as they will not be able to get the charge cancelled.

    I take it that is based on past experience?
    I'm happy to help you with this case. My immediate suggestion would be to contact parkingeye and offer to either use POPLA to save costs for both sides, if they will re-issue a valid code, or to save costs by holding off from issuing proceedings until the Beavis appeal, as many court cases have been adjourned by the court until that date.

    That sounds like a reasonable course of action...
    I would also suggest contacting Cornwall council to explain how parkingeye are behaving, your MP and your local paper. I could also plug you into the national media, if you want wider publicity.

    Unfortunately, my MP is the useless Ann Coffey. She's good at declaring children's playgrounds open, but not much else :-(
    Personally, I fancied appearing in the Daily Mail; but I suspect they'd be more interested in my 17yr old daughter. She's not at all keen on the idea.
  • Maybe worth joining and sharing this on the "Newquay" threads
    I've searched around, but it's not immediately obvious what you mean by the Newquay thread.
    Could you post a link?
