Defence Systems Ltd T/a Park Watch Court Claim

[ericsbrother]

Gladstones are the IPC and they invent their own rules.

 

 

The main point is that their kangaroo court, the IAS ignores the law and makes decisions that are just nonsense legally speaking but always on the side of their clients. T

 

 

hat is why parking companies sign up to them rather than the BPA

but this rash of court claims will cause them to rethink when they go along with Gladdys and then lose

because they have believed what they were told at the earlier stages.

 

 

I also believe that many of these claims are not funded by the parking co's but the up front fees claimed are non-existent or paid by Gladstones on a contingency fee type basis.

 

 

This is sailing close to the wind as it could be argued to be Champerty.

 

 

Certainly the dubious claim for £54 legal costs as a pre action claim is very suspect,

I would love to see the invoices, accounts and bank statements of the companies involved but we never will.

In 2 weeks I am due to go to court with this same issue

 

 

Have you got any further or will I be in court prior to you ?

 

 

I will post how it goes

Hi Mandak,

I've not been given a hearing date yet, so it looks like you will be in court before me!

 

What I have found out so far, after a freedom of information request, is,

' The signage at Perry Barr One Stop in relation to traffic signs is excluded from Birmingham City Councils (BCC) direct control and therefore are permitted and do not require planning consent'.

And,

'There is no Traffic Regulations Order issued by BCC' currently in place.

 

I've got my fingers crossed for you and hope you have taken the advise given by the guys on here, looking forward to hearing you won!

 

Hi Ericsbrother, Dx,

What's your thoughts on their response,

as it seems to me that they have evaded my question regarding advertising and the planning permission required for that?.

[ericsbrother]

the council is wrong in its assertion that signage is not a planning issue.

 

 

These statements are made by people employed in customer service roles and not qualified to make such assertions.

 

 

Read the law

but what you do have from this is a statement from the council that they do not have planning permission.

 

 

There are plenty of threads here where the exact part of the Act is quoted so look at them.

Hi

 

The same thing is happening to me with regard to Defence Systems and DRP. But I've paid £100 for PCN and now they're asking for more because it wasn't paid in time (apparently). DRP are chasing me with harrassment letters, saying I still owe £160.

 

I'm stressed to bits over it - They keep sending me letters and text messages. I've rang them loads but they just keep on saying it's outstanding and that they will consider court.

 

Surely if they've issued a PCN for £100 and I've paid £100, they can't go for further costs???

Help please.
