Do any ABers have any experience with private car park operators and their scandalous procedures for charging people to park. Do we have any recourse when they decline an appeal
against their charge?
Once parked in an car park of a supermarket, pay £1, get ticket from machine and get refund from the supermarket.
Came out once to find someone had stuck 'ticket' on the windscreen, binned it when I got home.
Had letter from car park folk a few weeks later, binned it.
Haven't heard diddly-squit for 15 years.
As a non driver I have no personal experience obviously but parking charges are one of the most talked about topics on AB so am sure some will be along soon.
Time was when binning them was advised but some companies have made that harder now - hopefully advise will be along.
You could write to them and tell them that as you are not legally obliged to pay their invoice you won't be doing so and that no further correspondence will be entered into. That's exactly what I did and I never heard a sausage back from them.
I've had about four over the past couple of years and never acknowledged any of them. They keep sending letters which go in the bin then solicitors letters threatening court which also go in the bin. Then they get fed up and stop! They rely on you getting scared and paying up but if you don't give in they give up!
