it wouldn't allow hxxp either so each photo begins with h'xx'ps / w w w



soooo, the first three are the tickets left on the windscreen, the second two photos are the signage on the wall and the ticket machine.

They even give their address as 'Brighton & Hove City' which isn't a postal address at all. And they are not at Western Road of course, it's a mailbox.

Anyway you haven't got the Notice to Keeper in the post yet, have you, so do nothing until that arrives anyway, in 2015. The keeper is the best person to send the appeal and that's a dish best served cold, when the NTK (or whatever: 'formal demand/final notice/scamogram/jackanory' whatever they call their first letter) arrives.

Signs in the car park say:
'parking is permitted for:
vehicles fully and clearly displaying a valid parking permit/pay and display ticket and parked fully within the confines of a marked bay'
etc etc
by parking or remaining at this site otherwise than in accordance with the above, you, the driver, are agreeing to the following contractual terms
You agree to pay consideration in the form of a parking charge notice in the sum of £100 to be paid within 28 days of issue. This is reduced to £60 if paid within 14 days
you accept that a parking charge may be fixed to the front windscreen of your vehicle.
you will be liable for additional parking charges for each and every subsequent 24 hour period (or part thereof) that the vehicle remains or if it returns at any time.
etc etc

So no contract with the keeper then. Am I being too simplistic here?

Well well well, whaddya know? Sussex Security Solutions has a new director, the spectacularly-named {Edited by Forum team}. And {Edited by Forum team} is also a director of that other credit to Brighton, Ethical Group Ltd.

{Edited by Forum team} clearly has the brains of the poultry after which he is named. It was the work of moments to track down his home address, in case anyone wants to send him some reading material for him to enjoy over his cornflakes:

I'm guessing that {Edited by Forum team}'s activities as a parking parasite are not a subject of conversation with his guests at Selden Farm B&B or Selden Farm Weddings.

I would think not, unless of course the driver is also the RK, and telle them so..

Another point, contractual charges are subject to v.a.t. Has v.a.t. been mentioned on the NTD? If not then it looks like a breach, and actual loss applies.

Yes you are. There never is a contract with the keeper. POFA 2012 doesn't require the keeper to enter into a contract, it makes the keeper liable for a contract entered into by the driver.

Could also try a contract cancellation:

The driver denies that any contract exists between him and Sussex Security Solutions Ltd. However, if you assert that there is a contract, please note the following:

On behalf of the driver, by whom I am duly authorised, I hereby cancel any contract with Sussex Security Solutions Ltd. for the service of parking at <location> on <date>. This cancellation is given under the terms of the The Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013.

I wonder about this tactic. Assuming there was a contract in force, it would have been for a service that OP has already used and for a finite period. It is not an ongoing contract that can be cancelled as it is no longer in force. It's like cancelling an expired motor insurance.

The time to cancel such a contract would be during the period it was in force- when you were still parked.
