Hi hope you knowledgable guys are able to help me.
Today I have received a court claim from AM Parking Services claiming £217.83 stating the driver of the vehicle reg number incurred the parking charges on 19/09/15 for breaching the terms of parking on an address.
The address is a block of flats where I was a named tenant with a valid parking permit for that address, I was given the permit with no permit holder and I can only guess that it wasn't on the windscreen at the time due to it moving from its place on the dashboard, as I say guess as no ticket was left on the screen.
No notice to keeper was received, the first I knew of this alleged parking contravention was when I received a letter from a solicitor in August 2016 demanding payment but no evidence was supplied.
I wrote back (first class unfortunately) stating that this was the first I knew of any parking contravention and that I was a tenant at the address with a valid permit and supplied a photocopy of the permit saying I hope that puts an end to this. I heard no more from them.
i have since moved house and today received the claim form as above.
Obviously I wish to defend their claim do I have a good enough defence to do so?
Thank you
