We can confirm the below Parking Charge has been cancelled.

No reply from Met yet

 

I must admit a little bit of me wanted to get to court to teach Met a lesson.

Why do you say that?

Have you contacted them?

If not, it is probably a good idea to do so.

An assurance from a third party (euro garages) doesn't really mean much...

[Honda Z50M]

I haven't, euro garages would have so awaiting met to confirm

Shouldn't really be assuming things.... but, as you say, no harm waiting a couple of days.

 

Any bets on whether MET get in touch guys?

This is excellent news - well done.

Make sure you keep the mail from Euro Garages though, MET are perfectly capable of "forgetting" to cancel.

I received another email today from Starbucks area manager saying they will contact Met to get charge cancelled BUT guess what it was from a euro garages email address so who do you think owns the franchise for that Starbucks...........

So still waiting for Met to confirm but area manager will contact them again.

[Honda Z50M]

Still no response from MET so sent email this morning

Dear sir/madam,

 

Please be aware this parking charge has now been cancelled by Euro Garages for which you will have correspondence from them for.

 

I do have confirmation email from Euro Garages.

 

I also request you delete ALL data you have stored pertaining to this charge, me and my vehicle.

Very pro active. Keep up the pressure...

Might be useful to post that email addy for future victims... I'm sure there will be plenty!

That is  good news. It is always better and quicker and less stressful  to get the land owner to cancel rather than waiting for a Court hearing.

[FTMDave]

I don't think it's a big deal if MET are sulking and are refusing to confirm cancellation.

They have at least crawled back under their stone.

Just make damn sure to keep all these communications in case they later try to resurrect the claim.

[Honda Z50M]

Still nothing from MET so they must have a proper sulk on!

[FTMDave]

Just make sure you keep the Starbucks/Euro Garages' e-mail

Also,

Don't know whether you want to annoy/pester MET. (I'm bloody minded!)

You do actually have the RIGHT to demand that they erase your data.

There are a number of reasons, but yours is probably

 

"The organisation no longer needs your data for the original reason they collected or used it for."

 

Take a look here...

Do let us know if you have any fun with them...
