Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
This has got to be a record. My company has just received a £60 'fine' for entering a carpark and not displaying a recognised numberplate in a private carpark. The driver remembers that happened; he turned into a local pub car park, realised that he had made a wrong turn, and drove back out.
I have asked for CCTV images but nothing else, and these confirm the driver's story!
So, what would be for the best? The template 'we don't know the driver' letter? I know I should be keeping my cool, but what a waste of my time...
If they do that they are committing a criminal offence.
they claim SIA licences are held by all their operators so a stiff complaint NOW to the SIA is in order.
• do not pay
• do not contact them
• ignore any letters your receive, no matter how threatening
• they will go away after 5 or 6 letters
• ignore lies about CCJs or court costs in the letters. They are fabrications designed to scare you into coughing up.
Or do you have to give your registration number when you order food and drinks, along with your table number?
Actually, in a pub I use quite regularly, you do!
I don't mind cos I never park there unless I'm eating there but I think it's a growing culture. I got a £70 fine at work a couple of weeks ago cos I took the wife's car to work forgetting that she had a new car and it wasn't registered on the store database. Common sense prevailed and they didn't pursue it when I explained.
Back to the OP though, I'm with the ignore them vote. Even if they have the car on CCTV, he didn't actually park so what a load of cobblers!
If they had the car actually parking on the CCTV, how would they find out the name and address of who was driving at the time, and since you can only go to court to claim actual losses, how could they claim they've lost £60 by you parking in their car park?
£60 for driving through a Pub carpark...
