If you have taken photos of the ECP signage, please show them here. There is quite possibly a POPLA 'out' for you contained in them.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. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

There signs are quite good, dotted all over the place, and the £100 is in bold too. the only thing I can think of is it says terms apply at all times , however the landowner contract (which is ECP holdings wtih ECP ltd lol), there is no mention of timing. ive seen appeals won because contract said between times of say 8am-6pm, however signage said 24 hours.Umkomaas said:If you have taken photos of the ECP signage, please show them here.

Please have a read of PoFA 2(3)(b)(ii) and explain how you think that the £100 charge on a crappy ECP sign is adequate to bring it to the notice of a driver when compared to the sign in the Beavis case:mysticalsoul786 said:

"There (sic) signs are quite good, dotted all over the place,"Really, you can actually read all that tiny writing near the bottom from a reasonable distance can you?2

ah, I had looked at ECPs old signs, where the £100 was not in bold, so thought this bold one was compliant, but compared to the picture you have posted, it is inadequate. Thanks for sharing this with me.Debszzzz2 said:
