Is your MP doing anything useful? I would ask Boris what he is doing about this as well since he said around the end of last year that he was going to put an end to patients and NHS being targeted at hospitals and medical facilities.

Local and national press might be interested. "Crap for the NHS" sounds like a good tabloid by-line to me.

I have to admit that I did not write to MP. I wasn't sure along what line I should be writing and felt it is a petty matter to write to MP about;  I wrote to daily mail, but they didn't respond.

I would respond and ask if the Medical Practice hs reviewed the matter, or have ParkingEye not bothered to ask?

Not sure what you meant here. They had included a letter from Medical practice which confirms landowner authority. Thats all from the Medical practice I received. I spoke to and wrote to medical practice to cancel it but they werent helpful

I mean, reply and dispute their answer, and Ask P/Eye whether they asked the medical practice and reviewed the matter properly, as required by the NHS Car Parking Principles:

Petty? Nine million people received PCNs last year. Tens upon tens of thousands of court claims were issued. A new parking bill was introduced last year due to the excesses of these parking companies.
Our MPs across all parties have called these companies scammers, rogues and bloodsuckers.

This new bill was the result of complaints by members of the motoring public to their MPs.

It should be high on your list of things to do, as should a complaint to Boris and a reminder of what he promised to do about this disgraceful scam.

Now tell us that MPs find the subject petty!

Read what Pete Wishart MP said recently in the House of commons about Smart Parking.

"I am sick and tired of receiving emails from people complaining about the behaviour of parking companies, telling me that they will never again visit Perth city centre because of the negative experience they had when they had the misfortune to end up in a car park operated by one of these companies. I have received more complaints about one car park in the city of Perth than about any other issue. That car park is operated by the lone ranger of the parking cowboys: the hated and appalling Smart Parking—I see that many other Members are unfortunate enough to have Smart Parking operating in their constituencies. It has reached the stage where one member of my staff now spends a good part of each day just helping my constituents and visitors to my constituency to navigate the appeals process.
…
The BPA does not have the ability to regulate these companies and has shown no sign whatsoever that it is trying to get on top of some of the sharper practices. The BPA gives a veneer of legitimacy to some of the more outlandish rogue operators by including them in their membership, allowing them to continue to operate. The Bill will oblige operators such as Smart Parking to amend their practices.

I know that .  Pete Wishert is an MP, OP is questionning whether MPs are interested in these matters.
