However, that power for PPCs is coming into Scotland this year (won't be retrospective). Things will be more difficult for people against PPCs after that, in Scotland, and some might start trying Scottish court claims.
Be aware not to fall foul of PPCs in future but you can ignore this one, apart from complaining to the factor/owner and telling them you wish to 'opt out' YOUR space from the thug enforcement.
There is NO FAIR APPEAL until the Governments set up the promised, independent Single Appeals Service.
Get yourself opted out of this 'enforcement' asap. You don't have to show a permit for your space.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Yes, but you can ignore them. You are safe. PPM will not pursue a single PCN in the Scottish courts.
Which solicitor? South of the border?
What do you mean 'official clamping'?
Unless it was by the DVLA (or a bailiff after a case went thru the Scottish courts) that's been illegal in Scotland for maybe a couple of decades.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Why would you waste your time phoning CAB when you have told to ignore as your in Scotland and that CAB are a complete waste of with Regards to parking tickets. As you Will simply come here and tell us what they said and people will just repeat the correct advice to you again3

The only difference is that CAB Scotland do get it (CAB England are useless).I'd hope CAB Scotland are unlikely to be stupid enough to tell you to pay it (if the adviser does, tell them they are wrong and to read articles about private parking by CABS because they know the score). Please tell us what they say and if they know about the new law and Code coming in?
The 'unfortunate incident' (clamping in Scotland) was illegal. That's what the property management meant! Their agent screwed up. It will have cost the victim nothing.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

ALL OF THEM have years of experience in the parking scam.
The CAB DO NOT ? Infact, the CAB are dangerous for consumers in the great parking scam, they lack training and fail to understand a scam if they see one ?
Of course we cannot stop you wasting your time because that's what you will do by talking to the CAB
Your choice. the CAB have some good points but in the the great parking scam they are totally useless.
I also thought that the song "Scotland the Brave" applied to all Scots ? is that you ?

The advice is never to telephone anyone. Do everything in writing because a 'phone call is not worth the paper upon which it is writ.
