    I was only advised recently by the enfield citizen advice bureau to contact MSE Forum.
     :)   At last, a CAB branch or volunteer who knows where to signpost people to!

    You could have beaten Highview in one week, with one email, had you come here before you wasted the appeal options and admitting to driving. It was that easy.

    Highview are one of the ones that we laugh about being a cinch to win at appeal because they don't bother to use the words that could hold a registered keeper liable. They don't have to bother because people appeal blabbing about being the driver and what happened...frustrating that you fell into that trap.

    Any advice what escalation means and should I risk going to court?
    You already know what it means and how to win in court, from your reading of the NEWBIES thread post #2 all about how to win in court - but you also have been advised to complain to the Retail park owners because Asda don't employ Highview, the managing agents of the retail park do.

    In his reply above, @Umkomaas has already told you al this and who to contact, which is the only way to now get it cancelled when POPLA has been wasted.
    Thank you for your response. I have followed your advice and contacted groupnexus. I will keep you updated.
    Groupnexus??

    Who said anything about contacting Groupnexus?

    @Umkomaas suggested you "...try to find out from them [Asda] whose car park it is, then target your complaint there".

    No-one told you to contact Group Nexus...wow.  How does this happen that people go so wrong when advised exactly what to do?
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    The same people who apply to the Home Office for a visa and don't engage a solicitor qualified in immigration law?
  • Highview Parking and Dcb Legal took my son to court last Friday. 3 years of letters to and fro we still refused to be bullied by them and wouldn't pay. WE WON!!!! Dcb had a Solicitor representing them, who was as much use to Highview Parking as a wet paper bag!! I have asked permission from the court to go public. So watch this space.

    AFAIIA, no SUCH permission is needed .  Did the judge award costs?  
    You never know how far you can go until you go too far.

    I agree but it would be better off on your own thread rather than hijacking/side-tracking this one which belongs to @emoossun25
