I'm confused, If parking eyes charges only cover their losses, then wouldn't the business be making a loss, or at best just breaking even with a small in significant profit?

I picked up on the substantially profitable business also.. So what else do they do to create these substantial profits besides the overpriced invoices?Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -
As has been said already PP's blog clearly touched a nerve.
What I find particularly paradoxical is that a company so keen to recoup its alleged losses that it sues hundreds of motorist a week (in blatantly arbitrary numbers) for relatively small sums of money then wastes what is presumably a sizeable amount using an outside solicitor when it has a salaried one in-house to pursue someone for disclosing information that is already in the public domain courtesy of their own staff.
Methinks they have simply bought the letterhead and are hoping that no one will be able to hear the petulant stamping of feet.My very sincere apologies for those hoping to request off-board assistance but I am now so inundated with requests that in order to do justice to those "already in the system" I am no longer accepting PM's and am unlikely to do so for the foreseeable future (August 2016).
For those seeking more detailed advice and guidance regarding small claims cases arising from private parking issues I recommend that you visit the Private Parking forum on PePiPoo.com0 -
It's all very strange that they threaten to go legal over job titles when they take no action whatsoever about 'untrue and defamatory blog posts'.
That hasn't stopped them writing to judges in court cases where I have been providing witness statements outlining untrue statements [TEXT DELETED BY FORUM TEAM].FAO District Judge X
Mr Prankster has no interest in this case, was not the driver or registered keeper and has a history of making court appearances at County Court hearings which have nothing to do with him.
On his blog he consistently posts untrue and defamatory statements.
We do not believe that his presence at the hearing is required or that it will be beneficial or useful in any way.Hi, we’ve approved your signature. It's awesome. Please email the forum team if you want more praise - MSE ForumTeam0 -
on a side note, does anyone think we should send UKPC a PCN (Potato Crisp Notice) for this http://parking-prankster.blogspot.co.uk/
and as its not parked properly within those marked bays, do we send TWO notices ?
or do we send the driver on a retraining course at UK Prankster Coaching ?0 -

Shame Parking Eye aren't too well educated on the etiquette in legal matters.
The statements made by Jonathan Langham on his blogs were his own opinion and backed up with supporting evidence to show this was indeed factually researched.
The new Defamation Act came into effect on January 2014 and in fact has given a wider freedom of expression and a new threshhold regarding defamation brought by corporate bodies which must show a considerable damage to profit has occurred should the statements be true, and defamation proven. It is always the claimant that must show that harm has been done by the allegations made. In this case the statements were true so no wonder Parking Eye aren't too keen to pursue this.
Parking Eye aren't adverse to making up their own falsehoods - look at all these parking charges for alleged breaches not being a genuine pre-estimate of loss after all, but their tax deductible business running costs..
The BPA daren't back down on this though - as should they admit it is not GPEOL then this proves entirely where breach of contract is alleged that PPCs aren't abiding by COP - This would knock Parking Eye dead in the water with one fell swoop- it is a condition of their contract with their client that the BPA COP is adhered to.
Parking Prankster (PM sent) could even consider suing Parking Eye for making such an untrue statement that his blogs have been defamatory.:D
PS DID I MENTION THAT SHONA HEGARTY IS THE OPERATIONS CO-ORDINATOR FOR PARKING EYE0 -
Maybe the prankster could make friend with this newbie in the Shop, don't drop sub forum, to find out more inside info.

would that be this one, I have checked Linkedin and it's correct
And why does Parking Eye think it now has control of the internet? I would love to see that 'Land Owner' witness statement.
Oh, and how does one get 'confidential' information such as Job titles and rolls of its employees? I think you will find the source is called

My current role at ParkingEye Ltd has given me the opportunity to build a department within an already substantial and profitable Car Park Management company.
Initially recruited to the company to offer some insight into the procedures and legislation needed to implement their own infrastructure team.
Having observed the company utilise sub-contractors to meet client’s requirements and expectations, it was a challenge to implement a new resourceful department within an already fledged car park management sector.
Since my employment at ParkingEye, I have been able to improve working practices and develop new techniques to assist in the operational function of the business.
The opportunity to work at ParkingEye has given me great satisfaction, and whilst assisting in my own personal development, it has helped others around me.
As my responsibilities have grown it has become increasingly important for me to keep abreast of current legislation. I take a proactive approach through my continuing professional development, technical circulars, and trade journals.
Recent developments have focused my attention on Health and Safety, Risk Assessment and best practice and value engineering.
I believe given an opportunity, I would be a valuable asset within any organisation. I consider myself self-motivated with a leadership management style. My aim is to always strive for improvement, strengthen relationships and ensure the successful continuance of business operations within an organisation.

That took about 20 minutes, even a Parking Eye 'Enforcement Officer' could do it, it is hardly 'inaccessible and out of the public domain'0 -
Which means PE should have been booted out long ago. They frequently breach the CoP. And then the likes of ANPR Ltd breach it in absolutely every single action they take, yet they are still members and able to access the DVLA database, their lifeblood. The BPA is as bad as PE in turning a blind eye to dodgy and potentially unlawful activities.4consumerrights wrote: »This would knock Parking Eye dead in the water with one fell swoop- it is a condition of their contract with their client that the BPA COP is adhered to.0 -
Now I understand why prankster redacted the blog, if you notice the date of the solicitors letter it was from November last year. As someone who has received veiled threats from the other ATA in house scumbag solicitors on here it is a concern for people's ability to express themselves.
This is newsworthy and sending out solicitors letters as threats is pathetic, if you remember it was done with ukpc with nutsville, they had a massive dpa breach, they just laughed in their faces, and the blog is still there. Together with the threats of it being a criminal matter.
The whole so called industry is a lie, they are corrupt, they lie, and they have the backing of so called ATAs who do nothing beyond pretend to be impartial .When posting a parking issue on MSE do not reveal any information that may enable PPCs to identify you. They DO monitor the forum.
We don't need the following to help you.
Name, Address, PCN Number, Exact Date Of Incident, Date On Invoice, Reg Number, Vehicle Picture, The Time You Entered & Left Car Park, Or The Amount of Time You Overstayed.
