    Why not simply search the forum for G24 and save our typing fingers, all cases are the same. It's only G24!
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    But the parking firm will NOT know any personal details from the shop, as the store isn't allowed to share your data!

    Promise us that:

    - you will read other G24 threads, and that
    - you've stopped thinking the discount is a bargain, and
    - you won't be paying a penny for this scam!

    well i went into store this morning taking the pcn and order confirmation with me.
    store keeper took photo copies of both and sent me on my way.
    hopefully , there should be no more correspondence from them
    store keeper just said that email would be sent to g24

    thanks to all who have given their precious time to help with this issue

    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 crime.

    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 in the not too distant future..
    You never know how far you can go until you go too far.

    Easy when you try that with G24! They are ruining retail parks all over England/Wales.
