Parking Charge Notice Euro Car Parks Sainsburys

zyounis

Hi Everyone,

My wife recently got a letter through the post stating she had overstayed her parking at the local Sainsburys car park by 25 minutes and had got a parking charge notice. Her defense being she thought it was 4 hour stay, as opposed to the 3 hours mentioned in the letter. I have checked and it is in fact, 3 hours stay.

Now my question is, can we appeal or get this over turned on that basis?

Thank you very much

Thank you for pointing that out

I thought tickets through parking eye were handled differently?

I take it as the way it's written, it's to the owner? It doesn't state Notice to Keeper.

Any advise will be much appreciated.

all BPA members are handled the same in england and wales

see the NEWBIES sticky thread BPA member section, post #1

can you appeal ? yes, but not on that basis

will it be overturned on that basis alone ? - NO , definitely not

the biggest question is , why have you or she not complained to Sainsburys with proof of purchases and demanded a cancellation ?

Complain like mad to Sainsburys. Tell them that, unless they cancel it, you will in future only shop in a rival supermarket.

Thank you Redx and the Deep :j:T

The Mrs complained to the manager and they waived the charge!

Redx

good, just make sure it does actually get cancelled, in writing

and please sign this petition (both of you)
