It's an invitation to pay. Refuse to pay and tell them to take you to court. Conservative government had a chance to stop all this but a year ago they dropped plans to do so :-(

Yup. You are 100% right. Invitation, which can be declined. I recently got a NPC. I'm a motorcycle courier with a big square pizza back box. The ticket is for "parking" 21:51:24 - 21:53:07, I literally left my motorcycle to deliver to a resident on the premises and they do me at that time of night for 2 minutes. No sticker, just got this through the post and they used the word "invited to pay". I also believe I was racially targeted because most riders that do food delivery don't speak English and would often just pay up. Unfortunately for them, targeted the wrong English chap who knows the definition of Parking and Unloading. I stated this in their adorable little "appeal" system I refuse to pay, based on all those reasons of unloading, timing, time of night, racial profiling and the invitation wording and poor signage during a dark night. I got a reply back stating my appeal was rejected and cannot appeal again, definitely not a fair system especially for the fact, they never actually read the appeal. Because if they did, they would of replied to my other reasons instead of just one which was poor signage. These guys are crooks and they will work late especially coming towards Christmas to get their bonuses. Anyhow I'm still waiting for them to take me to court, because they will be in for a surprise when I turn up.
Some expert ! Appeal ? To do this is acceptance of contract, you don't appeal and in fact you don't do anything until the notice of intent arrives (If ever) Then you simply dismiss the claim on the contract not being established for a multitude of reasons.
The Best advice is VOTE WITH YOUR MONEY. Don't visit businesses that use theses Scam parking companies to punish their customers for the crime of "spending your money" . Learn where these crooks do not operate and go spend your money there instead. People power ! See parking scam signs in the car park ? Don't be lazy, drive out, shop elsewhere. You have the power. Anyone about to say just follow the rules, you are terminally stupid, you have my pity.
I cut into the last 10 metres or so of a bus lane to filter left. It wasn't rush hour and there was only me and 1 other driver proceeding towards the lights. Guess what?
Yes you rarely see a bus in our local bus lane but because it takes up one lane of the dual carriageway it causes terrible congestion in rush hour. Funny thing though, I always speed along the bus lane on a Sunday because you can. Most of the other drivers don't understand the Monday to Saturday sign and look at me as if I'm mad when I go speeding past them.
@@truthseeker7794 I've noticed that too. If I am on my own time, I'll take the time derestricted lane. If I'm on the company clock, I err on the side of caution.
You must pay local authorities parking fines ,every time I get a ticket from a private parking rip off firm ( Kingston hospital,tescos car park pub car parks) I have sent the ticket back telling them ,I have a barrister friend that has told me I do not have too pay it and guess what!?I never hear from them again , they won’t take you to court it is not worth it for them , shame the guy you interviewed did not point this out he clearly knows
Sadly, our government does not understand the phrase ‘get a grip’. the time has come for a new, genuine political party to work for the people and the people’s future. Not for the futures of the individual politician.
you will hear from them before the 6 years are up statute barred the have to much of backlog too much money to catch up on lol lol lol oh for lol mmmmmmmmmmm
They are absolute criminals. I went to court as a witness and it was a long drive, my mum said to borrow her car as mine is quite old and she believed hers to be more reliable. I parked and paid the correct amount, but put my car registration in by mistake as that was the car I always drove. I received a fine, I immediately contacted them and explained the obvious mistake and that they had had their money and sent evidence. They never gave in and sent threatening letters and threatened court action.
In future, any letters you get just throw them in the bin. They can't do anything, and if they take you to court you don't have to attend as it's a civil matter and just an invitation from the court. If the court then upholds the fine just ignore it and do not make any contact with them, else you will go into a contract with them.
I'd refuse to pay! They can't do anything as it's not a crime. I've had two parking fines and just thrown the letters in the bin. It's all a money making scam!
Whay the parking company's are allowed have a profit up to sky and the farmers are not even left to survive with them business? Whay the minimum wage it is so small , Whay we are not allowed to have a decent life
@@jom5_ it does work because if they take you to court and they win they only get the overstayed period or price it was for the time so unless it's thousands don't bother with it because just like it would be for them as it is you it's not worth ££££££ it
It’s scandal 😅lol I appealed mine to the IAS or whatever they just backheeled it , now I get a letter from a debt agency telling me to pay £170 or I’m going to court 😮 … it was my dentist 🦷 for some reason you must enter your registration number when you have an appointment. I did this but they are saying on this day it wasn’t done ✔️ I’ve had 5 appointments and it’s only this one that is an issue 😢.

What is the best course of action to take to these unscrupulous dirty criminals?
I’m in a similar situation. If you don’t pay only 2 things can happen 1. They keep sending nasty letters then they stop and you hear nothing. 2. They take you to the small claims court. I’m not paying and going for the former but prepared for the latter. Remember they can’t demand via court that you pay them more than the original fine. So you’ve nothing to lose by ignoring them. It may not be worth them taking you to court, they are just hoping you pay up out of fear.
@@Coneman3is that right? They can’t demand more than the original fine? So they can’t add court costs etc? (Which I am being threatened with now) I also saw that in 2022 a law was passed only allowing them to charge a max of £50, not £100 and rising as most of them seem to still be doing. I’m wondering if they are not in breach of terms for that alone! In the past I’ve ignored and nothing has happened but apparently now a few of them are bulk processing ccjs through small claims court in Northampton…what scumbags they are!
I got one against me right now. I was a paying customer inside a shop with a 1 hour stay. I was gone within 50 mins and they fined me. Provided evidence and they refused it so frankly they can get fucked im not paying it and told them as much in the most professionally worded way, i flat out refused to provide my details to them
Please don’t pay ! They work on averages by trying to scare you. Saying it will affect your credit rating😂 I’ve had 4 tickets over last 5yrs and never paid one fine. I replied to one threatening letter with a quote from the film Taken …. GOOD LUCK !!😂
Going to send mine back, saying my solicitor advises me to do it and I wasn’t driving the car and I don’t have to pass on their details, so please leave me alone you are wasting your time.
I have never had a private 1 bit I have had a council 1 once for parking in a no loading area double yellow lines even though I was parked under a tree next to a phone box 15 feet away from the kerb and there was no signs saying I couldn't park there on a bike and the signs was placed at the next roundabout up towards where I was parked and it was small contested it and won and took at least 20 photos
I am put off driving as on top of fuel their is parking charges add to that the parking rules and places can be befuddling so getting a ticket is always a possibility as who knows it may be the third thursday of the month and you are not humming the yellow rose of Texas so its a fine.

Political system is fuvked. Needs a complete overhaul like most of society. No wonder Brits emigrate. Maybe as crap elsewhere.
They are not fines, only councils or police and courts can issue fines. With Private parking firms it's a it's a charge notice.
Ignore them .I have never paid one
