Left the site parking fine

Hi I have now a letter of claim from dcb legal. I made the early mistake of trying to appeal before looking at this forum and in the appeal letter I have admitted being there and leaving the site. (Tried to explain my reasoning for leaving as I had used the shops in that retail park but popped quickly to another shop across the road to get something) Just wondering if I need to address this admission somehow or can I just follow the standard protocol in the threads?

Definitely not a fine, just a private parking charge notice from a private parking company , an Invoice
Which Parking Company ?
Just email the response template to DCB Legal, same as all the others2 -
It isn't a "fine" you should know that if you have studied this forum, you have an invoice from chancers, was the original NTK from UKPC this is their silly add on scam?They won't have any evidence of you leaving site you should never have admitted that but never mind now.You need to show the POC on here, and defend it the scammers will eventually give up their with threats to a good defence.No leaving site scam has been to court since a legal was threatened with a night in a very rough hotel by a judge now lovingly known as the toothbrush case.5

So email the LoC response template to DCB Legal, same as everyone else2

Is it worth adding into the template that I didn't actually leave the site on this occasion, that I got the dates confused? i.e. to invalidate the appeal letter I sent...0

No, you will still get a court claim4

hello i now have a court claim and have done the acknowledgemnet of service. just drafting a defence. Not sure how to proceed with the fact that i wrote the appeal letter early on admitting i left the site. Do I just deny it now and say I got the dates wrong? TIA

No, don't lie. But presumably you left the site because the signage was unclear and consisted of hundreds of words in tiny writing 8 foot up a pole. Like all UKPC signage.
The onus is on the Claimant to make any contractual restrictions clear (losing themselves £100 in the process) after all 😉

well i left the site because i really didnt want to get back in the car and drive 10m to the next shops... i didnt read the signs but apparently it does say people may be fined if they leave the site. So wont they just say the signs are there and i am in breach of the terms, especially if i have admitted it?

Yes they will. Or they would if they weren't going to discontinue at the eleventh hour.
Have you looked at one of their signs? An essay 9 feet in the air isn't clear, no matter what it says.2
