HI All Thanks for your helpful comments. The ticket was issued due to the the yellow zig zag line, not the dropped kerb. It is a dropped kerb for a private driveway. There is not another dropped kerb opposite. The TRO says the lines shouldnt extend accross my mums drive and she has this confirmed in the email (dated June 2007!!!) and did send a copy of this email with her appeal but they have just refused it seemingly ignoring this point. There has never been any complaints about the vans parked in the road as my mum feels it is a public road so at the end of the day if they are parked legally (which they do) then they are effectively doing nothing wrong. The problem that they present is that they take up all the space in the road which is not restricted parking! I shall be suggesting she contacts the local papers most definetly as the whole situation is just laughable. thanks again

my mum lives next to a school and there are restrictions in place between 2.30 and 3.30. When the zig zag lines were painted for these restrictions, the stupid line painters also extended the lines accross my mums drive. They have since been blacked out, but that paint has worn off and now they are yellow lines again. Mum has been in touch with the council who have confirmed 6 months ago that these lines are incorrect (obviously) and are to be removed but have not been to remove them yet. Mum parked accross her drive one lunchtime and she looked out the window at 2.29 (according to her watch) and saw a parking warden on his moped issuing her a ticket. She immediately went down with her keys to question the ticket and also move her vehicle. The parking warden claimed it was 2.31 by his watch and he could therefore issue the ticket My questions are: 1) I thought they had to see you parked illegally for 5 minutes before issuing a ticket, or is that a myth? 2) Mum has an email from the council confirming the lines should not even be over her drive, so on this basis should the council remove the ticket? They have declined her initial appeal. Just to add to the joke factor os this, my mum is the only person who lives in the road and she gets a ticket, but when all the mothers in the gas guzzlers turn up at 3 and park illegally, the traffic warden is no where to be seen! and she only had to park over her drive because her road seems to be a dumping ground for a builder in the next road to dump all his vans.

thanks gg, I will keep at them definetly, but what do I need to do, I've just stopped my standing orders to them so do I wait until they start harassing me before I do anything else, or should I be writing to follow up my CCA request?

thanks for your help so far. Do I need to send them any further letters to follow up the fact that they havent provided the agreement?

hi One is a loan and the other is a credit card. They were taken out 5-6 years ago. They are not adding any charges or interest since the time they were passed to BOS which is about 4 years ago I have been paying them and did so at the beginning of December although a very nominal sum as I am not working presently - can I stop now as they are in default of my request Thanks

Hi there Please be gentle with me, I am new to these forums. I have sent the following letter to Blair Oliver Scott with the £1 fee (which they have banked) for two debts which they are chasing me for Blair Oliver and Scott PO Box 66 Rosyth KY11 2WG (Via recorded delivery) 21 November 2008 Dear Sir, Re: Agreement reference xxxxxx I am presently striving to organise my personal information and can find no reference to the above agreement that I am presently paying money into. This letter is a formal request pursuant to s.77/78 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974. I require you to provide me with a true copy of the credit agreement relating to the above account, together with any other documentation the Act requires you to provide. I expect you to comply fully and properly with this request, within the statutory time limit. You are reminded that should you fail to comply with my request, the provisions of s.77(6) will apply. If it is your view that you are not the creditor, s.175 of the CCA 1974 applies in the case of a simple assignment, and places a duty upon you to pass this request to the creditor. In the case of an absolute assignment, you are a creditor as defined by s.189. If you contend that you purchased the rights but not the duties of any agreement, you are reminded that s.189 of the Act is clear that an assignment is of both rights and duties. Your attention is drawn to ss.5(2), 3(b),6 and 7 of the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 (CPUTR). I enclose a cheque for the sum of £1.00, which is the statutory fee. Note that these funds are not to be used for any other purpose. If you are unable to comply fully and properly with this request, you should confirm this in writing at the earliest opportunity, and certainly within the statutory time limit for compliance, and return the fee. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours faithfully xxxxx I have had no respose to them since 21st November, can anyone tell me what I should do next? Any help is much appreciated Thanks
