CE Enforcement fine - now asking for £140

Steo18

Will do! Thank you :-)

Hello,

I have come home today and received a claim form from the County Court for this fine.

I really don't know where to start in putting my appeal together as when I search the forums I can't find anyone that has had a similar issue to me.
As stated previously a family member registered my car to stay in the car park but got a couple of letters wrong. There was no other persons in the car park with a similar index to me.
Any advice would be much appreciated as they are now asking for £328.54

Kind regards
Ste

Fed up with typing that. Why don't people just go to the NEWBIES thread first? You do have an idea what to do, the Sticky thread tells you how to win this at this stage.

What appeal are you talking about, this is NOT at appeal stage.

You are joking.

We have court claims EVERYWHERE, all the same, pretty much. And as for not being able to find all the dozens of current cases like this:

I come home and a few days later receive a parking fine from them. After making enquiries they state that my cousin give the first two letters of my registration plate incorrectly so was not complying with their terms.

all I can say is what were you using as your search terms, how can you not find the other threads?

Try wrong VRN defence

Apologies, I meant to defense.

I have had a look at the newbie forum but I am still confused where to start. I will do as you said and try search Wrong VRN defence and see if that helps.
This is the first time I have ever had to do anything like this and the legal system seems scary to come up against!

You read the post with #2 top right of it, in the NEWBIES thread.
