G24 period of appeal expired?

[Deamer]

Hi

I have been trying to fight a PCN i received after parking in Wickes in June this year.

 

 

I wrote a letter downloaded from another forum, and then appealed directly to Wickes

who emailed G24 to say we were in the store and to cancel the fine.

I thought that would be the end but received another letter with an increased fine for £100.

 

 

I wrote again and included a print out of the email

have just received another letter stating the appeal was too late.

 

 

The letter gives me two options,

pay the fine

or debt recovery (or court proceedings)

 

 

The letter concludes by saying G24 may engage with IAS alternative dispute resolution scheme at their discretion.

 

 

I have tried to appeal with them but keep getting an automated message telling me to contact G24,

but so far my emails have bounced back.

 

The email from Wickes was later then the deadline but i thought it showed clearly we were not at fault

 

 

. I cannot afford this fine and am very worried

 

 

. Do i have any options?

Do i have any options?

 

Yes.

 

Sit back and relax, do absolutely nothing, but keep that email from Wickes and any paperwork relating to the ticket safe.

 

 

If G24 are really stupid enough to take you to court, you have the proof that their client told them to cancel the ticket, and yet they've still taken you to court wasting everyone's, especially the courts time, the judge will love that! For some strange reason, judges seem to have an inherent dislike of people that waste their time with vexatious claims. Can't imagine why

 

Don't forget to take a breakdown of your own costs to court with you so that the judge can award costs against G24!

and read the letters carefully

 

 

it does not use the word FINE anywhere

its a speculative invoice

 

 

it also does not say WILL anything anywhere

 

 

just may might could instruct.

 

 

as its gone on this long

you can safely now ignore them.

You have it in writing from the principal that the charge must be cancelled.

 

G24 do not do court anyway...
