    Are you serious?

    You say you actually complied with their silly rules but they seem to have messed up, why wouldn't you get stuck into them and make them sort it out.
    The OP probably contacted the general manager can't you even try that yourself?
    A good appeal to POPLA is likely to win if that fails.
    Have you read the newbies thread?
    Have you even read this thread fully?
    If so you would also know this is not a fine!
    Smart have issued 197341 charges this year to date and been to court 10 times do you really think they will be interested small fry like you?

    Thanks for that kick up the backside, probably what I needed! GM was emailed last week however despite requesting acknowledgement of my email/confirmation the case would be closed, I am yet to hear back. CEO has been emailed today.

    I must admit I did get very overwhelmed by the newbies thread but you lot seem to know what you're talking about.

    And in this instance I'd much rather be a small fry! :)

    If you know that it was registered in the hotel, then
    write to the CEO and request confirmation of this.
    The hotel is jointly responsible for their agents
    Ask to CEO to cancel

    Don't pay a scammer, get this nipped in the bud now

    CEO has been emailed. Let's see what happens. Thanks!

    Haha okay, point made :) I will continue to fight my corner. General Manager was emailed last week but no response (despite requesting acknowledgement of my email within 72 hours), CEO has been emailed today. Let's see what happens...

    Maybe the CEO might care to read all about this parking scammer

    Asda kicked out Smart and so have others.

    Smart will lose business for the hotel, does he really
    want his customer scammed ???
