Tower Rd/Fistral Parking Query
Comments

That's really interesting that a judge has dismissed a case where a ticket was purchased so the operator suffered no loss. That could be quite useful for others.
"Loss" doesn't come into it. Why do you think that?This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
Thanks - yes it does feel good.
I will message parking prankster.
Re BMPA, did you mean send them a message giving claim no and court? I'm happy to do that.
No! Didn't think I could get any expenses and now know I should have spoken to the judge yesterday though
nothing can compensate for the hassle due to the behaviour of Parking Eye Ltd over the last 7 months. But to have had it dismissed so quickly was very satisfying in itself...0 -
You could write to the judge, while it's now fresh in his/her mind, asking for expenses. Send them in a detailed cost schedule. The worst they can say is 'No', but many have said 'Yes'.
£19 ph litigant in person rate for research and defending this - be sensible (4-5 hours maybe)
Capped cover for time off work - max £90 (£95?) - check that out
Travel costs incurred or if by car, 45p per mile, round trip
And don't forget any car parking charges while attending court.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

Parking lie, by their own admission, thought the defendant had paid, so at the start they thought they had made no loss.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
