  1. Cheers - just wanted to make sure you made an informed judgement based on all the information. I've taken them down now! Thanks guys.
  2. They do correct themselves and say 'Date of Offence' on the second letter. That make any difference?
  3. Really? So I am 100% secure in that sense..... As Long as if it comes to it I have a legal foot to stand on then I will hold my ground....
  4. Thanks DD Wales. I feel more at ease but as you say it can feel worrying. Last thing I want are CCJs or even more expensive fines! Lucky I remembered about this site today - was just going to pay it. How would I go about posting something up on here though?? Just insert it as an image?
  5. DD Wales what happened with you? After you appealed did you pay up? Did you hear from them again??? It was just the fact it states PARKING CHARGE NOTICE rather than invoice but I guess this is them trying to be 'official'. As I said they do have picture evidence but it isn't very clear and you can barely see the number plate although they have zoomed in and blown it up below each pic.
  6. Thanks guys - great advice! I'll keep you updated. For some reason I'm still quite nervous about just leaving it......so long as you're sure? lol
  7. Hi everyone, I was looking for some help in relation to a Parking Charge Notice I received from a company called Parking Eye. The notice states that I was in the FREE Morrison's car park for 44 minutes longer than I should have been despite me not noticing any signs stating the maximum limit (but then I could have missed them). Despite being in a 1st class pre paid envelope I received the notice quite a while after the offence took place. The notice states that 'On the specified date, you were the registered owner, keeper or hirer of the vehicle of the vehicle in question. As such, you are responsible to ensure that the terms and conditions for parking, as set down and clearly displayed in the car park, are complied with.' Now I know that this is not the case as this responsibility falls to the driver. The company then sent me a letter stating that I would receive a discounted rate of £40 if I paid within '4 days of this notification' sent on the 19th of January 2009 but received on the 21st Jan - again I find this unfair. This second notice also included very blurry photos in which you cannot see the face of the driver clearly or even the number plate (although they included a close up of the num plate below the pic). I have read a few posts on various websites that state you should not pay these notices as they are unlawful, a [problem] and they tend to just go away if you ignore them. Is this true??? I am worried that if I dont pay and try this I will eventually be forced to pay an extortionate amount to these jokers. Can anybody offer me any advice please????? Today is the last day for the reduced fee of £40. Also if I do not pay and they do not proceed or follow up, does this effect my credit rating?? Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!
  8. Derekcat928 funny you should say that I have just come off the phone with them and they are excellent!! I strongly recommend them to anyone with DVLA queries or problems. I was contacted within an hour of my reply by email and phone. I missed the call, called back left a message and within five minutes they were on the phone!! Top notch!!!! They advised me of my legal right in this situation. Don't forget if you have a problem visit cherishedregistrations.net cherished number chat discussion forum
  9. Ha ha. O right - sounds like you had a rough time with it and must have been even worse for the person. You said investigating it - what type of investigator are you? Vehicle Finance Fraud Investigator? Police? Insurance? Sorry to be nosey but I am just curious at which side you were approaching this?
  10. At this stage I would just like to thank you all for your comments, please keep them coming - you can NEVER receive enough advice! I am still no closer to a decision either way but your advice is obviously helping me think about worse case scenario etc and making me question whether or not it is worth it. Fightback - I understand you seem to have had a bad experience and I really appreciate your advice on this. It definitely helps. I think to put my mind at rest both ways I will do what Oh Boy suggests (I have nothing to lose by doing that) and see if that settles my doubts. If not I agree that I should just walk away. Pat Davies it would be interesting to hear your experiences as well on the flip side. As we have Fightback with the bad experience and trouble and you with good experiences. Would be good to get an understanding of both sides.
  11. I see what you mean. But number (1) would have the V5 if he rented or leased the car not the person he leased it to, number (2). So number (2) would not be able to provide number (3) with a new keeper supplement?? Or would he, I don't know??
  12. So does having possesion of the actual car, two keys, having a clear Hpi check, receipts of both purchases, new keeper supplement from previous sale, mot and service history for the car mean nothing? So it is possible in this day and age for you to have all that information but yet it is not proof the car is yours? How would someone that was not the actual owner have all of that information - inparticular the service history?? What is the point of doing a Hpi check if it is meaningless? Because obviously the reason this purchase would be risky is to do with the fact that the car could be stolen? But then shouldn't it appear so on the Hpi??
  13. I hear what you are saying. However, due to the fact the previous owner failed to send off the V5 when he purchased the car, this guy will have to fill in a V62 as a new owner. The DVLA says it takes 4 weeks to then send out a V5 with him as the registered owner. I managed to knock money off the price but he is saying to me that if he does that he would want more money than we agreed. I am stuck really because I fell in love with the car but on the other hand you are right it does seem to be a bit of a risk. It is just frustrating that I have done all these checks, will be in possesion of a car with 2 keys, mots and service history, new keeper slip from previous purchase, receipt from previous purchase, my own receipt. I have also requested he provide 3 proofs of ID and I still can't gurantee I will be considered as the owner of the car.
