    Unlike the Beavis case*, in most car parks ParkingEye act as agent and not principal. They collect the charge for breach of contract on behalf of the landowner.

    They are therefore acting as agent of an undisclosed principal and therefore according to the famous Fairlie v Fenton case can only sue if they take on the risk. The small print on the signage shows they do not.

    Therefore, they have no standing to sue.


    *or in fact like the Beavis case, except ParkingEye redacted critical information from the judge.
