Re: Asda parking

Can you post up a redacted copy of the fine or letter you have received?
[MENTION=5354]mystery1[/MENTION] is one of the resident parking guru's, they will hopefully be along soon to help.

Re: Asda parking

Speak to Asda (manager if possible). Evidence of spending on the day and regularly in the past would help. Don't tell them i'm never shopping here again even if true or there is no incentive to help. Of course if it MIGHT put you off and they think you spend loads they may be more inclined to help.

Failing that get on facebook and twitter because they don't like publicity.




Also appeal to Smart.

Dear Sirs,


I, as registered keeper, wish to invoke your appeals procedure. The driver was a genuine customer and did not see any signs. In any event your charges are penal in nature and not a genuine pre estimate of loss.


I am under no statutory obligation to name the driver and will not do so.


If you reject my appeal please supply a popla code.


Yours etc.
