Hi everyone,
I have received a Charge Notice from Highview Parking as the registered keeper of my vehicle which was parked for 1 hour and 11 minutes at Urban Exchange, Manchester. This is a small retail and leisure development which used to offer 3 hours free parking, the driver saw the signs and noted it says 2 hours free parking instead of 3 (there was no other clear signage of these newer changes). Now just discovered this has AGAIN changed to 1 hour free parking and then you have to get a parking ticket or voucher from one of the shops after that? My mum and I purchased some items from Aldi but was not made aware of having to have a voucher upon checkout.
I am shocked at the attempt to get £95 or £55 if paid within 14 days for the sake of 11 minutes over the FREE hour??? Anyway, before research being carried out on the threads on here an appeal has already been made via the web link provided in the letter. Just wondering if this would still be able to be taken further? No response as of yet as the appeal was only sent a couple of hours ago.
Any advice would be appreciated, as stated I have looked through other posts but most other people had been through the numerous threads on here first (clever!).
TIA

Anyway, before doing my research on the threads on here I had already appealed via the web link provided in the letter.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.

Your best bet is to complain to Aldi.
Take the receipt for your purchases and point out that it's highly unlikely that you'll shop there again as parking is to expensive.
Have you already told the PPC who the driver is?
Who is the PPC?0 -
Throughout here you are advised never to reveal who was driving
You need to edit your op to remove details of who was driving
The ppcs monitor this forum and can use your posts against you0 -

More editing to post #1 needed.
The driver saw the signs...

Who is the PPC?
It was last month and it was paid for by cash, don't have the receipt unfortunately. Yes they have already been informed of the driver from the appeal response so I think the situation has already been tarnished! As in who is the company who issued it? If so it's Highview Parking0 -

Yes, much better.
As Quentin said, it's is to protect you - the keeper.
Highview should be easy at PoPLA.0 -

Unfortunately it's all to no point.
