sheffieldS8 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Hi, Has anyone any experience of dealing with a private parking company called Minster Baywatch? I specifically interested in anyone who has received a parking charge notice whilst parked in the Casino car park they control at Queens Road, Sheffield. I'm not after advice or the usual "ignore it" posts, but I am a consumer and I'm looking into the practices of the company. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheffieldS8 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 (edited) i did say in the appeal that i was the driver and in the letter it says that if i appeal to POPLA and lose i will have to pay the full amount of £100 instead of the discounted fine of £60. people say dont pay and people say pay i didnt think you could get a fine if you were in the car with the engine running and waiting for a space Hi, You've not actually parked, therefore in my opinion you didn't enter into any contract implied or otherwise and therefore do not owe any charges. It would be for the company to prove, albeit, only on the balance of probabilities, that you were info t parked and therefore agreed to the terms of the contract. Don't worry about Beavis case, that evolves around the issues of genuine loss amounts to the parking company and what is deemed to be proportionate. The Supreme Court judges who are salaried at well over £150k a year didnt believe £85 is excessive surprisingly.

MobileB Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 He was a scammer and scammed loads of people.

I was aware of many of the accusations against him for which he was later found guilty but knew there was no point in posting as firstly the post would have been taken down and secondly the abuse would not have worth it!

Paulstephens Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Hi all, I'm new to the site and was after a bit of advice. Today I thought I would do a bit of last minute xmas shopping at drake house retail park, and treat the kids to McDonald's for lunch, however the car park at McDonald's was full so I parked on the road outside. We had lunch and went back to the car, when I discovered I'd got a ticket from uk parking control ltd. it was only when I looked around that I saw the signs on the wall opposite telling me I couldn't park there. I have heard that these private parking companies can't enforce the fines, so just wanted to check before I start ignoring them. Anyone help???
