    Any suggestions from anyone?  

    Yes... please start your own thread.
  • I am going to court in January over this same very situation. 
    Argued it, they refused, went to mediation and they wouldn’t negotiate, so Oxford County  Court in January it is! 
    I’ll be fighting the whole way.

    Glad to hear it. However, I repeat my statement in the post just before yours...
  • Hi, sorry im new here so not sure if my post requires a new thread or not.. I have received a parking charge from MET parking services but unsure how to proceed with the template to appeal. I went in and Mcdonalds was closed (for refurbishment I believe) so I found a disabled bay near starbucks and displayed my blue badge. I stayed for 32 minutes and never even got out the car, I was also parked under a sign which stated 60 minutes free parking and now they have sent through a charge for £100 (£60 if paid early)! Where do I stand with this & should I use the template? Ive seen lots of threads stating not to admit who was driving etc but not sure if this would work in my case, so thought Id ask before submitting anything. Many thanks in advance!

    Hi, sorry im new here so not sure if my post requires a new thread or not.
    Yes and no.  If you want specific assistance, please start a new thread.  Otherwise you can follow the standard "newbies" process appealing as keeper and pointing out this is not "relevant land" so no keeper liability.

    I would guess the charge was issued for parking without going in to Starbucks, so "not a customer", but you know they make their own rules up to suit their agenda which is extracting cash from motorists.
