    Is it too late to amend it now? 
    In theory no, but, with permission from the Claimant it will cost you £123; without permission £313. 

    Leave the facts about being the driver and an Iceland customer for your Witness Statement. 
    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.

    The claimant is Horizon Parking Ltd, and the legal representative is Gladstones.

    I had to file it on the 29th so sent what I posted above already!
    I completely forgot about the below!

    Is it too late to amend it now? 

    "On the date in question, the Defendant recalls parking at the location in order to shop at Iceland. The Defendant did not see any clear signage at the entrance or at the location where the vehicle was parked that communicated any terms regarding a parking charge, let alone a £90 charge or the purported £70 contractual costs now being claimed. The area appeared to permit customer parking and no notice was given at the time that a contravention had occurred. The Defendant did not knowingly agree to any contractual terms and disputes that a fair or enforceable contract was formed."
    Yes, it's too late. Does it matter? No. You will include that detail in your WS.

    And even though this is stressful: please do the government's Public Consultation. We need every poster to complete this vital Consultation before the deadline.

    We understand that you may need some pointers. It looks laborious, we get that. It doesn't matter; no knowledge is needed except re your own experiences so you can call out a scam industry and you'll protect millions of motorists and help change the law.

    I've written some guidance on that thread. I have covered almost every question, providing ideas if you agree with our stance on things like DRFs, which we say must be banned.

    Ordinary people like you are falling victim to this scam 15 million times per annum. Motorists need your voice added please.

    CLOSES ON FRIDAY. Just days to go.
