Hi

I decided to not pay my ticket and take a militant approach.

DRP are now trying to recover the money on behalf of MET parking.

They have spelt my name wrong on the letter.

You didn't come to the forum and see how relatively easy these are to beat at appeal?

The 'militant approach' is the daft phrase used in the AWFUL MSE Article about parking tickets, and yet on this forum where the real work is done to kill these PCNs, we have not told people in E&W to ignore these PCNs for over 5 years.

However, you have now elected to be in ignore mode - bad advice - and must stay there (4th post of the NEWBIES thread is your stage).

Come back if you need our help to defend a court claim (see 2nd post of the NEWBIES thread, about court claims, which are rife).

You can complain to your MP.

This is an entirely unregulated industry which is scamming the public with inflated claims for minor breaches of alleged contracts for alleged parking offences, aided and abetted by a handful of low-rent solicitors.

Parking Eye, CPM, Smart, and others have already been named and shamed in the House of Commons as have Gladstones Solicitors, and BW Legal, (these two law firms take hundreds of these cases to court each week, hospital car parks and residential complex tickets have been especially mentioned. They lose most of them, and have been reported to the regulatory authority by an M.P. for unprofessional conduct

The problem has become so widespread that MPs have agreed to enact a Bill to regulate these scammers. It has even been suggested that some of these companies have links with organised ccrime.

Watch the video of the Second Reading and committee stage in the House of Commons recently. MPs have a very low opinion of this industry.

and complain in the most robust terms to your MP. With a fair wind they will be out of business by early in the New Year.
