Hi,
this is my first post on a forum, so apologies if the below is too lengthy to ready But I would I appreciate some advice on my current situation with Premier Parkiging Logistics?
I have 3 outstanding PCN 2 at debt collection stage with DCBL (from the TV show 'Can't pay take it away' ) and one still within the 14 days appeal for reduce amount stage.
I parked in the usual car park but on 3 occasions was running late and forgot to call to buy a parking ticket. My car is registered to my dad but so all the parking notices and debt collection letter are in his name. I have not responded back to any of the letters tickets at all.
I wanted advice on possible defences.
I have been parking in this car park for about a year but unfortunately was running late and genuinely forgot to pay. It is a car park where yiu can only pay by phone/online.
The car park I was parked is basically land of a broken building. There are two car parks on the same land separated by a broken wall in the middle. Both car parks use the same location code when registering car reg to buy a ticket. Signs in both car park state 'pay and display' but there is on one 'Pay and display' ticket meachine which is out of order with a small sticker from Parkonomy giving instructions of how to pay on the phone/online.
There is one sign board in each car park stating 'pay by phone only' and other signs stating 'pay and display' . The signboards state 24hr parking for £3.20 but when you call to buy a ticket for 24 hours the charge is £3.40 including 20p booking fee as its done over the phone/online.
My fear is that I am receiving all the letters in my fathers name and I saw a lot of comments online stating not to respond back or give any names but I am worried if this did go to court it would be my dad going as its in his name. Could I give correct name before going court or could I turn up and say I'm the driver?
My defense was going to be around the sign boards not being clear and the charges being misleading as signs state £3.20 for 24hr but really its £3.40 for 12hrs not 24hrs. Also with the latest ticket I received when I parked in the smaller car park where there is no 'pay and display machine' but signs saying pay and display and a little sign on The back wall which is a little covered by leaves stating 'pay by phone only'
What are your thoughts? And am I putting my father at risk of being in court by not owning up?
I appreciate your comments and assistance.
