Hello all,
As the title says I have just returned to my family home from a 2 month holiday, to find out my vehicle has been 'In breach of parking conditions' at Haven Marina. The car park is operated by Total Car Parks, and in order to park there, you have to display a permit.
On the 27/03/19, according to the operator, the driver didn't display my permit. No ticket was left on my car that day, instead a letter received on the 02/04/19 saying the driver had 'parked without a valid ticket or permit'. I was on holiday at this point so wasn't aware of this contravention.
Then on the 18/04/19 a second letter was sent calling for 'Action Required Now' and it being the 'final warning before further action is taken' (see pictures), again I was on holiday at this point, unaware of these letters.
On the 03/05/19 I received a letter from Dept Recovery Plus (see pictures), I was still on holiday when this letter arrived at my house. Finally on 23/05/19 another letter was received by Debt Recovery Plus saying if I haven't replied by 06/06/19 they will refer the charge back to Total Car Parks with a recommendation that they take court action against you (see pictures).
Today is 29/05/19 and this is the first time I've seen these letters. What should I do? I left home with no knowledge of breaking any rules and have returned home to what seems like a chain of events fairly far down the chain.
Any advice is much appreciated, thank you.
