Thanks everyone for you advice on this matter. I have no qualms over the film as this would prove that my ticket was displayed I only wish I had thought to take a photo myself I will let you all know what happens, should anything else happen that is Again you have put my mind at rest thank you all for that Lol about the title, no you are right there is no fair parking notice... Parking should be free like it was !! After all this and many other car parks were already in place and working for free... Anyway Thanks again everyone Ruby

Hi Everyone I have just received my final warning from Michael Sobell/Graham White. It seems to be that same as most others that I have read out on the internet after searching for this solicitor, except that it states that I should seek independent legal advice :-0 And "Please be assured this matter will not go away without solution or resolution." And "If you do not wish to incur the consequences of Court Action, you must pay the amount claimed immediately." I re-read my initial PCN earlier and noticed that the box entitled "filmed" was ticked Although on re-entering the Roxburghe website and inputting my number, again, I still see no film/photo. I was hoping to see one so that I could save it off and scrutinise it to see why the man could not see the ticket displayed in the windscreen, but I cannot. I am unsure as to just ignore these letters or whether to ask the solicitor for the "Film" :-S As you understand I do not want to phone Michael S/Graham W as I do not have the facility to record this form of media Should I ignore or should I write to the (dodgy) solicitor? Please will you advise me again Thanks and best regards Ruby

Ok cool thanks guys I will just ignore this one as I have done the others Thanks for all your good advice Ruby

Hey Guys, Been a while, I stopped responding to Excel parking in April and yesterday I received a letter from Roxburghe Debt Collectors saying basically pay by any one of the mediums and " Please note that in the absence of payment or any valid dispute we will pursue this matter with or without your cooperation. If we do not hear from you within 7 days we will pass the matter to our solicitors, Graham White, who will review your case for potential legal action." I went to the website for Roxburghe and put in my details to find that there was no more information and no photo, which I know there wasn't as I had asked for this evidence earlier and Excel told me that all they needed was their guys statement. Anyway I am unsure if I should just ignore the Debt collectors letter or battle with them again? :-S I have searched for Graham White and it appears that the only time they managed to get someone to court they lost due to their bullying tactics, is this true? There is no email address to respond to Roxburghe debt collectors and I feel that snail mail would mysteriously never make it there, so again I am unsure what to do? please can you advise me again Thanks and best regards Ruby.

Thanks again guys These demand letters look so frightening :-S I have kept all communications so have a good start towards my defence should they actually follow through I believe that this will be chucked out as soon as it lands on their solicitors desk, if it will even go that far Thanks for easing my mind and for the offer of help I will let you know if I hear any more. Thanks again Joolz

Hey guys just thought I would pop in and give you an update on this excel parking unfair ticket issue. I am now the owner of two demand notices, the second arrived this morning and assures me that it is the final demand and if I do not pay the fine this time that this issue will go to court. :-S FAILURE TO PAY WILL RESULT IN COURT ACTION. Looks like I will be going to court on this issue. Hopefully I should get some justice from there but who knows in this mad world Anyway that is where I am up to on this.

Hi, I too have been subject to the incorrect address issue with DVLA and am in mail communication with them at present. The main difference here is that I received the V5 and having 2 cars registered with DVLA also thought the V5 that made it to my address must be correct. Erm now I have a £100 fine as DVLA did not send me a reminder for my motorcycle's tax. When I checked the fine letter, which made it to my address, thanks postie, I noticed that the address was 27 and not 26 no wonder I never got a reminder, again my house is not opposite 27 and I doubt if number 27 even know I exist . I have written to DVLA who amazingly send me another letter, addressed to 27 saying that they were dealing with my letter. Erm I mentioned in my letter that the address was incorrect why are they still sending my mail to 27? and is there anything I can do? I send photocopies of my new keeper green bit (says 26 on that), my drivers licence and their letter with my house number circled on them and still they sent the letter to the wrong address ??? are they all idiots? What can I do about this? as if I had had the reminder my bike would have been taxed. Also £100, the years tax for my bike is £66 the tax was out for 2 months, luckily my dad noticed and I taxed it online that very same evening. So being charged for noticing their error What can I do? Thanks Ruby

Thanks again And yes I will let you know what else happens:) Up to now nothing has moved yet... Joolz

Thanks again people it's all good sound advice I don't think I will be bothering with another letter I have logged the complaint with the BPA anyway as was mentioned if people don't bother then nothing will change I will also pass on to them a further email including the latest letter might as well keep them informed Thanks also for the links I will check 'em out now ... just wanted to say thanks and that I appreciate everyone's help with this

Thanks everyone for you lovely suggestions I particularly like the Martian Gettleflapper pass I wonder where I can get one :-S I was hoping that you would all confirm that this was a [problem] and that they had no legal leg to stand on Which you have thanks :) I think I will just send them one more letter Somit along the lines of: "Thank you for you communication I have passed this on the the BPA as I have done with the rest and I am sure that they are enjoying your story telling as much as I am, all communication has now been filed under fiction - for the Alice in wonderland queen of hearts court" I can't thank you all enough for putting my mind at rest

Hi I wonder if anyone can give me advice on this one. I parked in Cholton Manchester I believe it to be private parking as it appears to be governed by Excel parking. I bought a ticket for £1 and put my reg number into the machine. When I came back to my car I found I had a parking notice attached to my side window. I immediately checked my front screen for my ticket which was still attached inside. I opened the notice to find that it had been put on my car half an hour before my ticket expired. I removed the ticket from the inside right hand top of my windscreen and went to consult the parking officer who said that there was nothing he could do about it at the time and to get a photo copy of the ticket and send it to Excel parking, all this I did and have had numerous email and mail interactions with Excel parking who say that I had failed to display my ticket. I am annoyed to be called a liar as I did everything as stated. The letter I received this morning basically reiterates their previous statement that I failed to display Excel parking say that the statement that they got from their parking attendant is all the evidence that they need in this instance, as I had asked for photographic proof. Which they do not have. Again they would be obliged if I would forward the balance of £60 to them by 11th april or it will increase to £100 or go to court. Can someone advise me on what I can do? I have the original ticket and the parking penalty notice. I had returned to the car 10 mins after they notice was attached to my car and that was 20 mins before the ticket expired. Thanks in advance Ruby
