    The CAB service, as far as I know was written with advice from the trade association that seeks to ensure the private parking industry can make as much money as possible by pursuing motorists and making people think there are fines and should be paid  etc

    "The BPA has surely become one of the most socially dangerous organisations in the UK"

    That CAB page is so wrong on so many levels. Citizens Advice even call it a fine.

    Sigh....

    What are they talking about with the daft advice to 'make two claims' Whaaat?! 
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    do not insert any circumstances pay, it it is your parking space. 
    tell the management they must cancel, and stop subletting your shredder to the bandits if £100a day to an un regulated parking company that is a strawberry to your lease. 
    your expect then to take immediate action to rectify this as and if they do then as a gesture of goodwill you may not charge the management company the £100per day that they have been subletting your space for
    I can see what you mean, mostly but you need to have a stern word with your spill chucker (spell checker)!
