Every time I say that they (and the chargeback team at Santander) just revert to "Yeah, but it looks like a fine. It says violation on it so it's that type of charge so that's our protocol - to pay it". That's why they then put it through to the fraud team. Should I inform Zipcar that my bank has refunded the money and the fraud team is looking into it now? And reinforce the whole private company/invoice argument again?

So it looks like the bank has refunded me the £60 + £15 that Zipcar had taken. I have received the following email from Zipcar, so they still believe they are in the right. Should I reply to them or should I just hope that the bank agrees with me and won't change their mind (as I believe the investigation is still ongoing and if they decide I am in the wrong then the bank themselves will take the money back - again)?

Thanks for all the replies, much appreciated. 1. I've attached the 'violation notice' that Zipcar sent back to me with this email: Hi Thomas, Thanks for contacting us. Please see attached a copy of the violation notice which has been attributed to your account. Kind Regards, Zipcar 2. I've attached the reply from MET too. Thanks Dave, I think this might be the only solution, although I'm not overly confident the bank will agree or help out here. It seems like everyone just turns a blind eye to these companies as if they're just and correct . How the hell do they get away with it? Zipcar Violation Notifice.pdf MET Appeal Reply.pdf

Hello guys, Long story short I was using a Zipcar (hire car) to go and pick my partner up from the airport. I was early so I stopped for a coffee. I parked in what they consider the Starbucks bit but Starbucks was closed, so I did the classic thing and walked across to McDonald's. I was there for 40 odd minutes then I left. A week or so later I got charged about £75 on my Zipcar account because they automatically paid the PCN issued by MET parking. After reading a few threads here I've contacted the CEO of Starbucks and the support team has suggested I contact Euro Garages as it's their land etc. I've also written to MET parking to complain. Question 1: As Zipcar automatically paid the charge on my behalf is it hopeless for me to try and get the money back? Question 2: If not then which is the best route to take? This has become more of a principle thing now than anything else because I know so many people who have been caught by this trap. Thanks in advance
