CEL turn up to court. 50 cases of ticketing their own customer's employees

It's rumored that some supermarkets have a "don't take our customers to court " clause. I don't know if that's true or not.

I've yet to see a PE/Aldi case get anywhere beyond a LBCCC. And there's been enough Aldi customers hounded by PE to have had at least some get to the SCC.

I would have though who ever signed this contract on behalf of CO-OP thrust under their noses by a parking company that has lead to this ludicrous situation needs to get a p45 and holiday pay immediately.

They might want to ask what else they signed as well before they end up out on the streets.

I wonder if any accompanying brown envelope was worth it....

If co-op own the land they must be claiming contractual parking ?
So where is the VAT on the invoices ?

Exactly what? Incompetence or indifference are your choices, I'm not much bothered which is your guess, either way they are reaping what they sowed.

Easy.... - tongue in cheek. Guess forum posts don't contain a smile and facial expressions. Didn't mean to cause offense.

Which must be carried out by........ human beings.

Their effort may well be looking at their web pages. I wouldnt pay much attention to a forum full of negative comments in the same way I wouldn't take too much notice of a website review or customer views of a restaurant......

I perform supplier due diligence all the time as part of my job and I'd be fired if it consisted entirely of that!

If the CO-Op is the landowner and indicates that it does not wish that any of these cases be continued....... doesn't that prove fatal to any court action that CEL attempt to bring??

What am I missing?

Coupon-mad

The fact that no-one tells the poor individual victims with a CEL or DEAL court claim and no-one tells the Judges up and down the Country either. It's fatal to other claims ONLY if someone tells the Judge. Same as people are still being sued every single day by ParkingEye despite the fact every case 'should' be stayed for the PE v Beavis outcome at the Court of Appeal. But it's not mentioned in court if the Judge and defendant don't know:

Same will happen with CEL cases except CEL don't often turn up (unlike PE). Every claim is a separate case and some people haven't a clue. There was even a hapless idiot victim (and yes it was idiotic) at court v PE the other week who went all the way to a hearing on the defence that 'he wasn't the driver'. He lost, of course. Hopeless. All he needed was to Google it and at least know about the Beavis case - why would someone defend a court claim blind when everything you ever want to know about, on any subject, is out there on t'internet?!
