dan2802 Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 If you've parked there a dozen times then think of it as a £5 charge for each time you've parked there. Or start a possibly long and drawn out legal battle. Your choice. Dont park there again ! I'll give you one tip that's never failed me. If your rear number plate is on your boot lid and not on the rear bumper, drive out with your boot open that way the camera doesn't register you leaving 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest busdriver1 Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 So a shop kindly provides car parking for ITS CUSTOMERS to use and someone decides to park in it for other reasons then complains when they get caught. Only in Sheffield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

actionman Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 (edited) Its an invoice. Dont pay It happened to me in a private car park in town I recieved a few letters then QDR solicitors letters . I ignored the lot. That was 3 yrs ago.

dave_the_m Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 As was said earlier, the best advice is to go to the pepipoo or MSE forums where you'll get free expert advice. Don't pay initially, but don't ignore. They have six years in which to bring a claim against you in the county court, by which time you may have moved and the claim goes to the old address and you lose by default. That means your credit rating is wrecked for 6 years: no new mortgages, phone contracts etc. Many of these invoices can get cancelled if the right steps are taken.
