Hi all... back again! :)

A while ago, I was kindly helped by the experts on this forum in relation to a parking issue with Britania Parking and the firm that represents them. (https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/5640952 - relates).

I was helped draft a pretty amazing letter that would hopefully put an end to it.

Unfortunately, these guys are relentlessness, horrible and unforgiving. They have now replied to said letter and sent my partner a massive package which includes their response (attached), photo's of the parking lot and every ticket/image of the car that they have on the database. Naturally, she's scared stiff and it's effecting her day to day.

To cut a long story short, these tickets amount to the value of over £3k (possibly more). The car park itself is confusing as there are 2 operators on what appears to be the same piece of land, one is pay and display, the other ANPR operated.. The only obvious separation is a raised curb. There are no fences.

Unlike my previous thread, for the benefit of myself and my partner, I refused to panic and allow myself to become a wreck.

My question is, given the content of the letter, is now the time to seek legal advise and get a solicitor to help us? I am fully expecting this to land in court. If not, should we just pay for the peace of mind.

Thank you for your time.
