My friend's BF has just had a bailiff appear on his doorstep, asking for £450 for a ASDA (colchester) parking fine or they will take his car. The parking fine apparently occurred in march, no fine , notification was ever received by the BF, but my friend suspect's it relates to this time in march. the bailiff mentioned this had gone to court, but also the BF had no notification of this (the BF had never had any notification of any parking fine). The BF is unemployed and couldn't pay the £450, so in the moment he got his mum to pay the £450 which she did. At the moment i am trying to ascertain whether this was on a Credit Card or Debit card. My question is this 1. if the payment was on a Credit Card, can this payment be disputed and withheld , as technically the CC issuer at this point has made the payment. The disputed payment being based on further investigation into the charge. 2. By definition , the BF has had no documentation, is there a way to find out from the Court about any judgement 3. £450 seem's excessive I suspect this is a Bailiff [problem], that there was no court judgement, and being on a Private car park , they are trying there luck and well it worked. I've asked my friend to photograph the Car Park signage and determine whether it was a Credit Card as i feel as the charge has been paid, the only practical way to get this back would be via the CC disputed payment. thanks
