Hi, all. Newbie posting here so bear with me! I received a parking charge in Dec 2014 of £100 for an 11min 31sec overstay that apparently occurred in August 2014. There were signs containing small print high up but no tickets are issued at this car park. I countered this at the time with the following arguments (this was in 2014!):
1. No POPLA process application form
2. No contract was entered into
3. 65 days between incident and receipt invoice beyond what would be expected.
4. £100 disproportionate to the overstay
I heard nothing from the parking company until 17 Oct 2016 when I received a 'letter before action' demanding £140 within 14 days and stating that they would be relying on the 'Beavis' ruling should I not pay. Has Beavis stuffed me too?! Thanks!
