    And a word of advice,

    Council has legal responsibility for issuing parking tickets

    Now advice for HONEST people:

    Evidence must include:
    • receipt for sale, if you no longer own the vehicle
    • delivery details and documentation, if you are claiming exemption because you were loading or unloading goods, not parking
    • photographs (of signs or road markings, for example)
    • tax disc details, if you are claiming that a PCN was never fixed to your vehicle
    • witness statements (for example, if you had stopped to attend to an accident
    For an appeal anyone you will need this.
    Oh, OP you dont have this, because you knew but still parked there thinking you were above everyone, well now you are not, pay up or enjoy having the bailiffs come in.
    Oh, did I never pointed out about my parking fines, But seeing as your so concerned, I paid my 5 yes, but the council wrote to me a month letter advising me that the tickets were issued in error and gave me a full refund.
    So, that shows who should be on the road, and its clearly not you!!!
    Good day!




    Ps, watch where you park your car later = you cant park outside!

    thats now illegal in scotland :p

    My 5 parking fines were from NOT knowing and parking tickets being sent to me so I never knew from the first one numpty!
    And I never insulted you, I just gave some advice to someone stupid who KNEW they couldnt park there.
    Stop being a freak and pay up, you shouldnt be so dam lazy, park and walk like the rest of us nerd!

    parking tickets sent to you,,,,, wow you must be so special :rotfl:

    its funny how you left that little detail out in the previous posts then eh, so you have actually paid NO parking tickets, our of your hard earned cash, you have not had to part with the money, so you really DO NOT KNOW what you are talking about then eh :confused:

    I didnt start this thread to get called a freak, stupid, lazy and a nerd, so just back off, if you cant offer any construct advice I suggest you go back to whatever hole you came from you ignorant idiot.

    There comes a time when you just have to give advice to people who are a little less understanding.

    and another word of advise for you Night Owl, if you are going to post up letters or quotes from other websites then the source must be given.

    thank you :D

    I honestly didnt ask for any of this, I didnt ask to be called all the names under the sun, I dont see what difference it makes to night owl if I appeal a £30 parking fine, it feels like she just wants to jump on the bandwagon, slagging others off, when she isnt such an angel herself.

    Some people come to a forum, for the purpose that she has, its such a shame as well, as otherwise mse is such a good place, its helped me soooo much over the past few years.
