beavis thought the same and lost in 3 courts to 11 judges, dont fall into the same trap because due to his court cases you will definitely lose that feeble argument due to the SUPREME COURT ruling 2 years ago
if they can prove a contract exists and the driver should have followed the rules , they might be able to extort money due to a failure of the driver to follow the rules and so be in breach of their parking contract (failure to extend the stay as detailed in the parking regime)
the gym "could" ensure that members vehoicles are exempt by adding their VRM to a whiteliest
the gum "could" get it cancelled because a genuine gym member was using their membership and facilities and so waiver the charge
but they will trot out all the same old excuses like you said
best to kill it now rather than spend 6 to 24 months battling it in court like beavis did with his overstay0 -
I did not enter my details..... I am normally in and out within 4 hours... And I can honestly say they reason I was in there longer than usual was due to a serious complaint been made to the company that manages my property rental, a very serious over sight has been made by them... Leaving me spending a extra hour in between exercising and waiting for return of phone calls, this parking charge adds a rather salty rub to the wounds.... But that is life sometimes... But intend to have a good old moan at the gym manager.!!!!! Lifes wonderful !!!!!0

So just to summarise...
1) moan at the gym manager
2) appeal using the template
If I lose my appeal, should I then wait it out to see if they take me to court?!!!!! Lifes wonderful !!!!!0 -
you need to learn to stop using the following words
ME
MYSELF
I
the correct terms are
THE DRIVER
THE KEEPER
so the KEEPER received the NTK
the DRIVER is the one that stayed on site , took the phone calls , didnt enter the VRM in the machine etc
unless you follow these golden rules you will fall into the trap of self incrimination, whereas in the good ol US of A they plead the FIFTH
time you spent some time editing all your posts please
these sc@mmers monitor public forums like this one , so you need to learn to speak like a politician, in the "third party"
and yes, your last post is a good summary , if you stay as KEEPER0 -
Thank you, I shall let that be my golden rule.
Thank you.!!!!! Lifes wonderful !!!!!0 -

I thought the NEWBIES thread was clear about POPLA stage? The template doesn't get it CANCELLED, it gets a POPLA code.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Sorry to hijack the thread, I have recently been caught by this scam having parked at a services in order to use the restroom facilities. I have appealed, and contacted both the retailer and forecourt service provider to state that the charge has been unfairly applied and disproportionate to any loss. The retailer customer services have contacted the provider to contact MET parking to request the charge be cancelled. However, it still shows as active when I login to their appeal page.
1. Could someone please post a link to the template appeal letter.
Following the appeal I received a POPLA code - my appeal simply stated that I was the RK and was not sure why the charge had been applied.0 -
and disproportionate to any loss.Could someone please post a link to the template appeal letter.
You are at POPLA stage.
You need post #3 of the NEWBIES thread where the POPLA wording is. NO LINK.
See my signature.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
