    So I just checked and the land owner is the supermarket in question, Iceland. They however don't get involved in PCN disputes. 
    They do. They don't want to, but they do.
    Thank you. I'll try to find a template letter to send to them
    Try to find? Someone posted their example retailer complaint only today on the thread you'd expect to find it on. The one linked in the NEWBIES thread.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Thank you. Please remember you're familiar with this site and it's layout. I most certainly am not!

    Sorry my friend but typing that in the search isn't bringing up anything. Thank you though for your interaction and patience. I can not imagine how frustrating and infuriating repeating yourself is. 

    I'll get on to citizens advice on Monday.

    Hi damebigs,

    From this page (as you are reading this, scroll up to the top, where it says:

    Home› Motoring› Parking tickets, fines & parking

    then click on: Parking tickets, fines & parking

    That takes you to the main forum page, in the list of threads, the second one is called:
    NEWBIES PLEASE READ THESE FAQS FIRST.

    Click on that thread. In there is all the info you require. including the link to retail complaints that Coupon Mad has referred to above.

    Please do no go to Citizens Advice. They do not know enough about parking on private land (the real experts are all here), and they often give well meaning, but incorrect advice.

    Citizens advice are of little use in these cases 

    Far better to follow the advice given here by coupon mad who has forgotten more than CA will ever know,  so it would be very foolish to not find and use her extremely valuable free advice 

    The Newbies sticky thread is at the top of this forum in announcements,  for all newbies to read and study 

    The link referred to is one of many in that single thread of free, valuable advice,  please find it and read it

    I didn't say to search! I was making it easy.

    It's an Announcement thread at the top of the forum you're on and my signature (below every post I make, colourful to make you look) tells every new poster how to hop there in a nanosecond. No search needed.

    And certainly DON'T ask the CAB who are sadly clueless about private parking charges. Even the advice on their website is wrong.
