I just wanted to post an update on this and to say a massive thank you to everyone on this forum for all of their support and advice. This ended up becoming 4 court claims covering ~ 15 tickets and thank God I won all 4!

1) Claimants representative didn't show up so I won by default

2) Judge ruled against the claimant and found their claim to be wholly unreasonable and against the spirit of their contract to operate. (Their main argument was that my permit was obscured. The killer point from the judge was that the signage says a valid permit must be displayed; it does not say it need be 100% readable). Judge also awarded £200 fixed costs
3 and 4 consolidated claims) Judge ruled against claimant. These claims were based on using a temporary parking bay without a parking session being registered. However the claimant seemed to be ignorant of the rules which allowed residents to use VP bays for 30 minutes without registering a parking session. The Claimant argued their case terribly and didn't even mention that in some of the instances I was photographed in a bay for more than 30 minutes. Judge found in my favour and awarded £200 fixed costs 

Thank you very much again to everyone on here for all of the help. And if anyone in a similar situation to me is reading this, please take this as an encouragement that even if you have no experience, you should fight these cowboys, they are amateurs and they can be beaten!

That is brilliant! You must be elated. Well done!

ANOTHER FIFTEEN BITE THE DUST!

Please please come back to take part in the final Public Consultation to change and cement the law and ban the fake + £70 debt 'fees' that in your case they tried to add FIFTEEN times.

Opens soon; my best guess is May now.  Come back and be heard by the Government.  Your only chance.

Thank you, I willdo. I am elated but it wouldn't have been possible without the support from yourself and others in this forum. I would have been totally lost without it  You are providing a hugely important public service and every victory is a victory for you guys. Thanks again
