CPN from CAR PARKING PARTNERSHIP

[bitemarx]

I had borrowed a friend's car a couple of weeks ago and parked it at my workplace using the temporary car parking permit

that had been issued (for my car).

 

 

I parked there and only realised my mistake around lunch time, when I ran back to the car park, sadly to see the car parking fine notice stuck to the car.

 

I have a CIVIL PARKING NOTICE from CAR PARKING PARTNERSHIP for £75 which is reduced to £45 if paid within 14 days.

 

 

I have tried to make the payment on a couple of occasions over the last two weeks both through their website and the telephone,

 

 

but the system has returned an error message and I have been unable to make this payment.

 

I'm not keen on paying the £75 fee now, because I think its unreasonably high.

 

Could someone please advice what my options are in this situation?

 

I have been told on other forums that I can simply ignore the notices and that they will eventually give up. IS this true?

 

 

My concern here is not just the possibility that they may take me to court,

 

 

but also that the car is registered to my friend who doesnt even live in Nottingham!

 

 

Will this affect her credit rating or anything else?

 

Many thanks for any advice!

read the threads above

 

 

it is NOT A FINE

 

 

its a speculative invoice.

 

 

so its not a debt

and can never harm a CRA file.

write to them and identify yourself as the driver at the time and tell them that you put your parking permit on the vehicle so no breach of contract has occurred as your authority to park is supreme to their offer of a contract.

They should have a proper address on their demand for payment, anything that is online only or a PO box number isnt lawful so ultimately they cant take anyone to court and win.
