Hello everyone and thanks for letting me join this site,
Ive posted this on another thread (before posting my welcome thread- sorry )
I'm new to the forum so not sure if this has previously been discussed. i have recieved in the post a claim form from Parking-eye Ltd (for Northampton CCBC) about abreach of parking on private land in Newquay (Fistral Beach) in Nov 2013.
I first recieved a letter/fine from these people in December 13 but thought it was spam as neither my wife nor myself were in Newquay at the date mentioned (we were both at work and can get written proof from our employers), so we ignored it. I am the registered keeper of the vehicle, however,at the time of the so called 'offence' I have now found out it was my son and his girlfriend (who were visiting from Australia) that had parked there for several minutes (but never left the car). They have since returned to Australia(at the end of december). I have not supplied any info to parkingeye as i cant contact them by phone or email as there is no contact details on their website except a number to pay.
Am I liable for the now £165 costs they are claiming?
Should I ignore this claim? or should I fill in the defence section on the claim form and send it Northampton CCBC ?
Also do I have to supply my sons address in Australia ( he is currently living with his girlfriends parents & I honestly dont know their address but should I contact him to find out ?).
Sorry if this is long winded it's just that they have given me 14 days to reply.
Many thanks
