Hi unquietsoul,

I recently went on a business trip to Cambridge, popped into co-op for 7 minutes (to the second according to the notice ) to get some medicine on the 4th December, then today I received the charge notice.

The problem is, the hire car was in my boss' name, and the hire company have charged a £30 admin fee to HIS company credit card for transfer of his details to the parking control company for this notice. This makes me want to not just ignore it, but to try and seek compensation from them, as my company will now be £30 out of pocket from this [problem].

I am very far away from the car park in question too, and as a result I am unable to get there to get any evidence of my own. I am sorry if this comes across cheeky but should anything further come up with my situation, would I be able to use your picture evidence of the signs etc?

I hope all goes well with your situation.

Regards,

yes you can use the picture evidence as it is now in the public domain.

You need to speak to your boss and explain how he is been rooked over this and the car lease co have got it wrong as this is not a fine but an unlwaful (see why in this thread) demand. he should then get the card co to do a recharge for the fee and tell the lease co they should learn to read.

Yes, I know that I can use the photos, but asking permission was me being polite

The problem with the admin fee is it is mentioned in the terms of the hire car that the hirer is responsible for parking fines and charges, should they be required to transfer hirer details, so legally unless we claim compensation from the company, there is nothing we can do about the admin fee.

well, your boss doenst have to pay them and if they have already paid they should consider reclaiming the money. None of it is legal or binding even in the hire contract as it ISNT a fine or a charge so no admin fee can apply
