Please help. Father in law recieved 6+ NTK

Robyn_banx

Hello.. Great work you lot are doing I must say.
It's annoying that private companies obtain money just by threats.
Iv done a lot of research today and I already lnew some of this previously.
Anyway.. I'm in a sticky situation and really really need help.
Me and my girlfriend moved into a new flat on the 1st July 2015.
There's a small car park area in the front and generic signs belonging to JD Parking consultants LTD, threatening £100 fine reduced to £60 etc.
We parked there for convenience of moving our stuff in and we kinda just kept parking there anyway as we never recieved a ticket nor saw any parking attendant. Some may say that's foolish but we rent this flat and we would like to park right outside lol.
My girlfriend who drives the car recieved a txt from her dad today (RK) saying he's recieved 6 parking fines in total. 3 of which were dated on the 6th of July - 3 in one day !!!!!!?

They live down south and we live in Leeds (headingley) so I haven't got pictures of the NTK yet.
A few facts -
He hasn't recieved anything from before the 6th yet we've parked here from the 1st onwards.
our tenancy agreement which we've obviously signed reads: 'Parking vehicles on the premises is not included in your rent. If there are parking areas, these are rented seperatley. Please ask a member of staff for availability and costs.'

There are maintainance men here every few days carrying out different bits of maintainance in people's flats or in the main building - they work directly for the letting agent. Their vans are plastered with the letting company.

So my questions are, if you would be so kind as to help:
Are we at fault for repeatedly parking day and night and ignoring blatant signage

If there was no PCN ever issued on the windscreen at any point has there been an attendant coming around without us noticing? Taking photos? Could it be the maintanance men? Could it be an ANPR camera hidden near the parking spot?
If it is a camera why only from the 6th onwards?

Finally could someone link me to the appropriate template for this scenario or help me re word one. I know that sounds lazy but I need to try sort this quickly and convince her dad that we can appeal it successfully so then he's not angry with us (because other wise he will think he has no choice but to pay it) I also work quite a lot and I'm a father and I have my daughter 3 times a week. I need to sort this ASAP iv put my research in but now I want some actual help from you lot!

Thanks in advance!

This is a duplicate thread of your other one.


Please edit the title and content to something like, duplicate thread please ignore.


If you leave two threads running it will get very confusing.
