Got a letter in the post from Tesco.
I had parked in their Haddington car park on 26.5.15 and overstayed. Yup i did. parked at 5am and left at approx 10 am.
Then on 27.6.15 I did the same.
Letter states if it happens again I will get a parking charge notice.
Cant say I didnt get fair waning.

Well there is an irony to that. On return I did a shop both times.
So a loss for them.
Im not out that way often,only when work takes me out there.

I'm not sure it's a great example as he's got PE in there persecuting and suing customers. We've had quite a few B&M cases to deal with over the past couple of years.
The irony is that in one case B&M were instructed by the landowner to tell PE to cancel a charge (B&M were not the landowner) as they had no right to employ a PPC.
Oh, did I forget to say that the landowner was no other than ............................. TESCO. :rotfl: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.
