I have done a search and browsed threads but not found anything with a similar claim.
4/5 years ago UK Parking Control issued a PCN on my partners Vehicle for parking without a permit. Time has passed so I do not completely remember the case but I never left anything unsettled. I can only assume that I had appealed this through their web portal at the time and because I didn't get any further letters I assumed the matter settled. 2021 comes I see lots of people have been targeted with old debts and them trying to claim and this is where I am.
I have a court claim form of which I will be responding shortly completing the Acknowledgement of service section and then preparing my defence. Am I correct in thinking that 42 secs of images are not a sufficient amount of time to allow my partner the opportunity to read the signs for the terms of the parking in the area?
She was looking to open up a store and went to enquire at the store front (parking was at the rear) about rates etc and had a viewing for the property, since then the managing agents have changed and are not able to step in to assist in this matter either. I would be willing to and am going to be prepared to go to court and maybe even counter claim for loss of earnings on 2 days (preparation for court and the actual court day plus travel expense to get there).
Am I missing anything here and or is the counterclaim amount going to be reasonable in a court?
Any and all help here would be greatly appreciated
12:56:43 is the time stamp on the first image
12:57:25 is the time stamp on the last image of my car
12:57:37 is the very last image (a sign on a wall)
(Obtained via a SARS request)
Total Court Claim Amount = £313.44
