Hi everyone
I parked in a car park in Manchester back in 2012 and bought and displayed a ticket. A few weeks later I got a letter from excel Parking saying I hadn't done either and they were going to fine me (I don't have a copy of the 2012 letter). I then photocopied and sent them the ticket. They then claimed I had taken too long to purchase the ticket and still tried to fine me. I told them to get stuffed. Then they "as a gesture of goodwill" reduced the fine to £10 which I refused to pay. They then said it was going back up to £154 because I hadn't paid if (even though they'd totally conceded I had paid and displayed!!). It all went really quiet until Dec 2016 when they wrote to me again and said I owed them a load of money. I replied and asked for copy of all the documents (I'd binned them all years ago). 8 months later they reply with only half of the letters and not s copy of the original PCN or the copy of the Parking ticket! I've pointed this out to them and yet they insist I'm saying I owe them money because I wouldn't pay the £10 goodwill gesture!!! I have done nothing wrong and I've told them this. In one letter they say I took 17 minutes to buy a ticket and in another letter they say 29 minutes. I swore at them in an email and they wrote back to complain about my bad language, and it would be shown in court if their clients instructs them to take me to court. I've told them to stop harassing me or take me to court. It was also pre November 2012 an I d never told them I was driving, so they can't prove anything. But it's like the more I provide them with facts, they just ignore the facts and keep saying they'll take me to Court! I'm tempted to go to court if it happens, they haven't got a leg to stand on. What do you think? It's stressing me out a lot to be honest :-(
