Parking eye fine

A question about : Parking eye fine

My wife has recieved a parking fine from Parking Eye. It is for an overstay in an retail park on a Sunday at 1800! The paperwork does not give the full address of the retail park, and we were with friends of ours who stayed the same length of time but have not recieved fines. Does anyone think I have grounds for an appeal? I ask because we have just recieved the final notice for payment and I'm unsure what to do next.

Thanks, Ozzy

Best answers:

• There is no fine, private parking companies can't fine anyone. All you have is an invoice for an alleged breach of a presumed contract.
  There is no appeal process with PPCs, they just want your money.
  Ignore all correspondence, never contact them, and don't pay them a penny. They'll give up after a few scary looking letters, and go after some other mug who falls for their scam.
• The so called ticket you've got is not enforceable in law, they won't take you to court, they are scammers, and they will write to you pleading for your money, then a bogus debt collecting company will contact you, and finally a bogus solicitors will write saying that they will send the boys around to collect money that they legally are not entitled too. All in all you should ignore the scammers, and tell friends and family the same, the tickets you must deal with come from a council or the police.
• Parking Eye are a joke even by PPC standards, they give up very easily.
  You can see the letters you will be ignoring in this thread.
• this is an old thread - did you not notice the date on the posts above?
  Important - the advice has changed and in england/wales is no longer 'ignore'!!!!
  Instead we beat these scumbags at appeal (popla etc). No-one pays but no-one ignores due to parking eye going for court now re ignorers.

  PARKING EYE NOW SUE IGNORERS ROUTINELY, EVERY DAY, SO DO NOT IGNORE A PARKING EYE FAKE PCN IN ENGLAND/WALES.
• Hi Guys
  Its my turn to be panicking (about what I was going to call a parking fine, but will after reading your posts, will refer to it as a PCN) from ParkingEye ! When it is your 'first time' it is quite scarey, especially receiving the very official looking document through the post, I did wonder how they got my address but have since learned today from reading your wealth of information, was obtained from DVLA, how dare they? Anyway, I guess I am just after some advice and reassurance for myself. I admit, I'd never heard of 'parkinggeye' and didnt see any signs re this in the service station, not that that would do me any good, or the fact I was with someone that followed me in, they didnt get 'eye'd'. Can someone just tell ME to not panick and to ignore the letters, I'm dreading receiving the following 4 or so, and think, knowing my luck, will be the one that DOES end up with CCJ's, bailiffs and bieng made an example of, sorry if I sound a little wet around the ears! Thanks for reading even though you have heard it all before :-)

• Thank you for your reply, have you really had lots of them and not paid? sorry just after more reassurance I guess !
• I have had over 80 from a good variety of these companies, I have not paid anyone a penny and nothing has ever happened except that they ALL without exception gave up and went away. That is what will happen to you too.
  You will not go anywhere near a Court unless you are a fan of Wimbledon fortnight. Parking Eye tried it only the one time (they like to give the impression it's their second home- in their dreams!)- and they got stuffed so badly they have never been back since.
  So just relax my friend, ignore all their bumph, and nothing will happen except that they will get tired and go away.
  Do start a new thread of your own though if you want to come back and report how you are doing- please do.
• How do I start my own thread?

• He is unable to even spell the word bailiff. Par for the course for a disinformation troll.
• Hi, I wondered if anyone had any advice for me...
  I received a parking fine from parking eye for staying in a service station for more than two hours. As I was genuinely ill I appealed against this, however from reading others advice I arealise I may have been better to just ignore.
  By appealing I have, in a sense, admitted that it was me driving the car.
  I will be away during the qualifying period and they have not replied to my appeal. What should I do? Thanks in advance
• Nothing!, ignore from now on
• heres what to, listen carefully,,IGNORE,,,there you go, jobs a good innit,nothing will/can happen to you as a result of your FAKE ticket/invoice.parking spy are well known on here.ignore everything on or on behalf of them you recieve, as they are all part of the SCAM.
• Welcome to MSE
  It may help to start a new thread for each case
  It makes absolutly no difference who was driving the car, and in my opinion the "I wont tell them who was driving" is a poor excuse, unless you genuinly were not the driver, lying gets you no where.
  more importantly as said above it makes absolutly no difference who was driving, why? because the whole thing is un enforcable, and they have absolutly no grounds to go after you.
• Thanks guys, so by responding I haven't affected the situation? I wondered if that would make a difference?
  NOt looking forward to the scary letters even if they are fake...!
