HELP PLEASE PARKING CHARGE EXCEL

Is that the truth? My understanding from your earlier posts was that you were shopping on behalf of vulnerable people, not carrying them with you. If you're doing it on behalf of someone, you are not entitled to use their blue badge. Doing so risks the removal of the blue badge from the holder.Fitztaylor9487 said:what if i was to say i had a disbility parking badge on dashboard of the car.. The person who owns the badge was in the carIn a hole, don't keep digging.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

Okay, so you know to send the appeal which is in blue text in the Newbie's thread within the timeframe. And, if it is the truth, to add the sentence about the blue badge etc. as Redx suggests on page 3.
When appealing to the parking company it's only worth mentioning technical things - like the blue text appeal does. But when complaining to the manager or CEO you can 'tell it like it is': it was a stressful time, people in the car were shopping for others who needed help, this was an unfamiliar Iceland etc. And all that is enough to explain why the signs were missed.
It's okay to apologise to manager or CEO but don't overdo it. This is a difficult time - making sure that vulnerable people have food in their cupboards is a really high priority. If it was all very stressful, just say so. Politely but confidently request that they cancel the PCNs.

When you do go back to the store, be careful where you park OR pay for it, if that is their preferred method of annoying their customers!3
