Moosey Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 The chance of these jokers taking you to court is virtually Zero as they know the chances are they will lose ,and they also know they arnt very popular with Judges . Ive had many inovices from these cowboys ,and ive never once been taken to court. They try it on for a while with threatening ,official looking letters then normally go away when they realize you arnt going to pay. But ,of course you are right saying never ignore official court papers should the PPC be feeling brave enough to fancy annoying another Judge. Completely agree it's unlikely (very unlikely), but just warning the guy not to go down the whole "I'll not even turn up" routine. If he does, they'll win, and someone pretending not to be from the parking company will be on here saying "Ah but we won in this case!". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only cases these people win are the ones where the defendant dosnt turn up in court and they win by default. Thats the only way they can win.

Penistone999 Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Exactly what I'm saying I cant recall a case of them ever winning other than by default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Stark Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Of course, it’s easy to pop in and pick up your groceries and everyday essentials. But if you want to make a day of it, you’ll find the latest fashions, gifts, entertainment and more, with plenty of choice at the Food Hub too. This is copied from their website. We "made a day of it" a week and a half ago. We did have a very enjoyable day, without going into too much detail but this morning the postman delivered us a lovely reminder of our day out. £60 parking bill No mention of this on the website. If your going to go then this is a heads up for anyone driving there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixie824 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I've noticed the signs in the carpark but I have to be honest and say that I've never actually stopped to read them so have no idea how long you're allowed to park there. Don't think I've ever stayed longer than a couple of hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disabled parking spaces are situated near all entrances to the covered malls. There are also courtesy Parent & Child bays throughout the site.

Jim Stark Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I didn't check out the *Getting Here* section as I already know where it is. There should be a warning attached to the *Home Page* where I took my information from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
