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.
ok so I have figured out how to post my own thread I just need a little advice.
I got a parking ticket on a single yellow line and I wanted to see if I could dispute it or if I have to pay up. I apparently rudely interrupted another thread and I apologise but as a "thread" virgin I have no idea hot this thing works LOL
I have received a parking ticket recently and I wanted to question it. I was parked outside one of my landladies house collecting some paints I lent her and had my car parked on a single yellow line for just over 10 mins. my ticket seems to have been filled out in all the right places from the research I have been doing however, I have e-mailed the enquiry address on the back asking for some answers but she is bloody useless!
I explained that I had my hazard lights on at the time and it was an over site on the wardens behalf not mine.
on the ticket it states that he clocked me at 10:45am and then 10:55am and that is it. now I was under the understanding that you were entitled to load and un load vehicles on single yellow lines for a reasonable length of time yes? well I think 10 mins is reasonable!
I have questioned it and all she did was say provide us with receipts for the paint (well they were mine not new) and a tenancy agreement (confidential so cant). I pushed the ball back into her court and asked her to prove to me that the warden had been correct in his judgment and she seems confused by this.
a further thing that seems to be going over my head is that I got the ticket on the 19th last month and it has clearly pashed the time limit to pay the min but she said on her e-mail I must pay the min by the 16th or face a £70 fine instead. ??????
can I get out of the ticket because he has not stated weather I had my hazards on or not because all my other tickets I have received (2 ever) they have stated. can you help??????
To clear up the dates first. The penalty was always £70. The initial discount period offered has been extended because you made an informal challenge. The new deadline is whenever they say - it's discretionary on their part.
If you choose to contest you will have to wait for the Notice to Owner and then make formal representations. By then the penalty will stand at the full amount of £70-
You can load for as long as it takes - but you have to load. Time for getting documents signed, finding the right person etc. is allowed - but it doesn't sound like that was the case.
The times on the pcn mean little. Actual observation times will have probably been made as notes.
You say the PCN is all ok? Really? Which Council?
