Spot me in the crowd...!

Sorry I don't take pm's - I have no time what with a family and a full time job during the day and forum advice when I can at night.

you have to try and understand that this forum is not run by staff

its a bunch of volunteers who by and large spend their time here after being stung by PPC's

most are still working full time some even have families to see to ....

this forum is one of the busiest on the MSE IMHO

just try and count up how many posts CM makes in a day :eek:

can you imagine what her life would be like if she was to allow contact through PM / email and such ..........:o

she is even hard to contact if you want to talk football

so I know it sounds hard but follow the advice given and you will not go far wrong

good luck

Ralph:cool:

Who was it that contacted me personally by email. Was it you coupon mad? If not who was it?

Coupon-mad

I do occasionally if I make a prior arrangement. Were there any numbers in the email address and was it a hotmail one?

Parking Eye have no official right to fine or charge you anything. They are not supported in law and merely rely on the ‘contract’ that you entered into and subsequently breached.
They commonly claim a breach of the contract will include over-staying in the car park or that you did not park within the marked bays. Thus, they will assert that their Parking Charge Notice is a logical consequence. However, this is nothing more than an invoice and you are under no obligation to pay it.
Private parking companies can only issue Parking Charge Notices and these should never be confused with Penalty Charge Notices from a Local Authority. This is the main difference. The others are equally purposely subtle, yet conversely easy to spot.
For example, they may use chequered letterhead to deceive the recipient into believing they are affiliated with the Police Force thereby ensuring they receive swift payment.
The Parking Charge Notice may say that if payment is not received your ‘account’ will be forwarded to a debt collection agency and may affect your credit rating. A genuine PCN will be enforced by bailiffs and will not affect your credit rating.
They may eventually threaten bailiff action, but in order to do this they would firstly need to have issued a civil claim against you by way of an N1 in the County Court and then they would have needed to obtain a judgment debt (CCJ) against you.
They may also claim that their ‘PCN’ is backed up with photographic evidence. This is meaningless and, as stated at the beginning of this guide, no PCN whether Penalty Charge or Parking Charge is driver dependent.
They may also demand a payment of £10 for the privilege of seeing a copy of any photographic ‘evidence’, despite the fact that anyone subject to court action is automatically granted the right to view the evidence against them, without charge, should they request it.
Private parking companies will no doubt send you several letters, each more threatening than the last, our advice is to ignore everything they send you.

Who are you speaking on behalf of? Who are the "our" you mention.


OP - ignore this and follow the advice you get in the newbies faq thread.


(PE do take court action, so do not ignore everything they send you)

Who is the "our" you refer to as in "our advice is to ignore everything" ?

Will you personally assist all those who receive their N1 to defend it having followed your carp advice ?

No it wasn't Coupon Mad - it was however another female :-)

I hope you followed the advice in our subsequent phone call?

Your advice sucks in this case as this OP has court papers

Beware of anyone contacting you privately. All strictly against the forum rules!


(There is a female poster (not CM) who does work for an appeals company)
