Asda Car Park & Smart Parking

Mr_CDB

Thanks for your help RedX and others.

Just a shame coupon mad felt the need to reply with some nonsense

Coupon-mad

Your post was nonsense. You were directed to the sticky thread with the template appeal. Yet we still get 'so any tips on how to word it?'

Mr-CDB, coupon-mad like the others know what they are doing, they are on your side, if you want them to be.
The reason new people are directed to the Newbies thread is that the majority of answers to questions will be found there. Trouble is that many think they know better, go it their own way and LOSE.

My advice about going to the CEO is how I handle things, and if it works, then of course there is no point in reading the newbies thread, if it fails this forum has all the power you need.

In particuar, Smart parking, who are not so smart can be beaten

Coupon-mad can be a little abrupt at times, no wonder when she is giving up a lot of her free time to motorists and not paid to do so

So, make friends with her please

And do go after Asda aka Walmart. This is a particularly sensitive time for them as they have announced the closure of 269 stores worldwide. They are really feeling the pinch and if they bleed customers who spend £200 a throw then they deserve to go to the wall.

Hi all,

Apologies to coupon-mad. It did feel like you were jumping on my back when all I was asking for was a bit more advice.

Thank you all for your help. I emailed Asda CEO as mentioned and got a reply back pretty quickly. They asked for receipt proof that I was shopping there on the day and then they will help me out.

Getting there slowly!

Sorry as well!

Hello everyone,

Today I received a PCN notice from a company called Smart Parking ltd. It relates to the 16th Jan when I visited the Asda store in High Wycombe (I spent over £200 in store!) In the letter I was told that I had over stayed the max 3 hour limit ( bearing in mind I can't remember seeing any notices about this when I parked?). It's annoying to receive one of these letters at any time but let alone after doing a shop which cost over £200.

I've done a few searches and noticed that a lot of people are saying to ignore and/or appeal the fine as it is in fact just an invoice and not actually a ticket. The reason I'm questioning this again is because a lot of these threads are from a couple of years ago and I wondered if ignoring them is still the way to go? If I do appeal or need to take this further does any one have any advice on how I do this?

Thank you.

I received a ticket in a Sainsbury car park. I did overstay the time by almost an hour. I was with my disabled sister and she visited their loo several times due to digestive/stomach problems. I had already paid as I had stayed over the time limit and I did not want to have to pay the higher amount after 14 days. I had not noticed the signs either and as we had a combined spend of over £220 I asked to see the manager next time I was in the store and explained the problem. He took the letter from me and said he would have it cancelled and my money refunded. After leaving the store I could see many of the parking signs. Often, if you are not expecting or looking for something you fail to see it. I gathered from the staff that most get their money refunded if they have a receipt that explains the length of time spent there.

Only 1152 to go ..... looks like The Deep will owe me that pound we had a bet on. If he does not pay, it's straight to Miah so they can add a further £100 on top :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
