another question have
I change charge on me POPLA to £110 from £100 cause in they reponce they said if I NOT pay on 9th June they going add another £10 admine fee on but me no get they letter till 16th June me think was 16th now it was later than 9th as that day they write letter. so charge would now be £110 right?
also I is still real stuck on the last point I just not can put it in words I not know how exsplain it.
8:- No landowner authority
Section 7.3 of the British Parking Association code of practise, states
Written authorisation of Landowner.
7.3 The written authorisation must also set out:
a) the definition of the land on which you may operate, so that the boundaries of the land can be clearly defined
b) any conditions or restrictions on parking control and enforcement operations, including any restrictions on hours of operation
c) any conditions or restrictions on the types of vehicles that may, or may not, be subject to parking control and enforcement
d) who has the responsibility for putting up and maintaining signs
e) the definition of the services provided by each party to the agreement
am I asking them prove they have permission from the land owner to charge me for parking? and asking them prove they have this permission? is that what it means? I got points now cause someone help me find them but I trying think how put it in words.I glad I find this forum :A:T0 -

9:- Indirect discrimination - disadvantaging a group of people who share a protected characteristics
I believe that Smart Parking are Indirectly Discriminating against Disabled people who are in the Protected Character group, for Disabled, in particular those who require the use of a Wheelchairs, Scooters, walking aids and other mobility aids.
Section 19 of the Equality Act 2010, states
(1)A person (A) discriminates against another (B) if A applies to B a provision, criterion or practice which is discriminatory in relation to a relevant protected characteristic of B's.
(2)For the purposes of subsection (1), a provision, criterion or practice is discriminatory in relation to a relevant protected characteristic of B's if—
(a)A applies, or would apply, it to persons with whom B does not share the characteristic,
(b)it puts, or would put, persons with whom B shares the characteristic at a particular disadvantage when compared with persons with whom B does not share it,
(c)it puts, or would put, B at that disadvantage, and
(d)A cannot show it to be a proportionate means of achieving a legitimate aim.
(3)The relevant protected characteristics are—- disability;
(There are other characteristics, but Disability is the one that relates to this case).
Indirect discrimination occurs when there's a policy which applies in the same way for everybody but which has an effect which disadvantages a group of people who share a protected characteristic, and you are disadvantaged as part of this group. If this happens, the person or organization applying the policy must justify it. A ‘policy’ can include a practice, a rule or an arrangement. It makes no difference whether anyone intended the policy to disadvantage you or not.
I believe Smart parking are indirectly discriminating against People with Disabilities, in particular those who require the use of a Wheelchairs, Scooters, walking aids and other mobility aids.
I believe Smart Parking are indirectly discriminating by offering a service that puts people who are reliant on Wheelchairs, Scooters, walking aids and other mobility aids at a substantial disadvantage.
Smart Parking are offering a service to the public to park their cars for a set fee. Their ‘Pay by phone’ Option is, or was at the time of this incident NOT working, and the alternative offered to the public was to access change from the local surf shop. Where this is possible for many members of the public it leaves a large group of people at a substantial disadvantage, of not being able to access the surf shop, due to the sand and other physical barriers. This includes, those people who are reliant on Wheelchairs, Scooters, walking aids and other mobility aids. Resulting in Smart parking offering a service to these people on worse terms than they would offer to the rest of the public. This is indirect discrimination.
Smart Parking are offering a service to the public to park their cars for a set fee. Smart parking offer a 10 minute grace period for all service users to read the signs, and choose to agree to the terms of contract or leave. Where this is possible for many members of the public it leaves a large group of people at a substantial disadvantage, as 10 minutes is not always enough time for people with mobility impairments. This includes, those people who are reliant on Wheelchairs, Scooters, walking aids and other mobility aids. Resulting in Smart parking offering a service to these people on worse terms than they would offer to the rest of the public. This is indirect discrimination.
Smart Parking are offering a service to the public to park their cars for a set fee. Smart parking are using an ANPR Camera recording system. To record the times using timed photos of when cars enter and exit a car park. This system does NOT always allow easy recognition if a vehicle is used by a disabled motorist or disabled passenger. To allow Smart parking to make clear and thorough check of the pictures to assess if the vehicle involved possibly may have needed more than the 10 minutes grace period. For example, it does not always clearly show Blue badges, Stickers and signs showing vehicles are adapted or carry disabled or mobility impaired passages or drivers. Unlike Foot patrolling officers who can take Close up photos and walk AROUND a vehicle to inspect for Blue badges, stickers and information needed to see if more time is required before issuing a Ticket and causing undue stress and worry. Where the ANPR works for many members of the public it leaves a large group of people at a substantial disadvantage with mobility impairments, as it can NOT identify a car who has a mobility impaired passenger or driver. This includes, those people who are reliant on Wheelchairs, Scooters, walking aids and other mobility aids. Resulting in Smart parking offering a service to these people on worse terms than they would offer to the rest of the public. This is indirect discrimination.
Smart Parking are Offering a service to the public, they must make it accessible to all members of the public. Including persons with disabilities. They should not be putting Persons with disabilities at a substantial disadvantage. Which they are doing with the 3 Cases above, showing clearly that they are indirectly discriminating against People with disabilities, In particular, those with mobility impairments.

We'll put all this together by the end of the weekend for you, I'm sure. I like the Equality Act wording!PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
CLICK at the top or bottom of any page where it says:

the annoying thing is that after all the effort to win at POPLa , smart will simply not present any evidence ,
they know they will loose , they know they are in the wrong , they promised PP that they would drop the charges , however they are leaving all the effort up to you .Save a Rachael

sorry soun real silly but I no fully under stand this bit
on first letter it did say
Location:Fisttral beach
and has times cause records and shows times van go in and out with picture.
so me is gussing I is missin something and not understandin quite what you means
sorry do mind exsplaing please
The Fistral Beach car park is huge. In my opinion they should specify that the vehicle was in a car park, not just say Fistral Beach as this could imply the vehicle was parked on the sand. They should also state where Fistral Beach actually is. For example, is it at Lossiemouth in Scotland, or Southampton, or Cardiff bay? For all we know there may be more than one place of the same name somewhere in the UK.
As far as parking times are concerned, I believe they must state arrival time, and departure time AND duration of parking period. In other words, they have to state all three things. They can't just state the arrival and departure time as that doesn't tell you the parking period.
I hope that makes sense.I married my cousin. I had to...I don't have a sister.All my screwdrivers are cordless."You're Safety Is My Primary Concern Dear" - Laks0 -
