MET parking charge

[RebA]

An electrician working outside my flat was issued with a £100 parking charge.

However, he came on a Saturday morning when the concierge office for the block of flats was closed, so he couldn't get a parking permit. It is a private road and there were no other cars parked there, so he wasn't in anyone's way.

I appealed, showing them that the concierge office was closed and there was no way he could have got a permit to park for the hour he was there.

They rejected the appeal but reduced it to £30 as a "goodwill" gesture.

I am loathe to pay it though - any advice?

Thank you

Speak to the concierge/management and check your lease. It won't be good for you and is a huge safety issue if tradesman will not come to your house, a point you should stress to them.

Thank you! I actually own the flat so I don't know why someone can't park outside for an hour while he sorts out some electrics. Madness!
