Premier Parking Solutions

I've recently received a letter from Debt recovery Plus about an unpaid parking fine issued by Premier Parking Solutions. Advice online was that these parking companies have no legal right to ask me for £160 in unpaid charges. Has that now changed? Should I pay the charge?

Re: Premier Parking Solutions

The law changed some 2 1/2 years ago in that they can claim from the keeper IF certain conditions are met. However claiming and and getting paid are different matters. You should be paying £0 if you play it correctly.

Okay, thanks. There were signs at the car park stating charges, etc. I was late getting back to the car. Any advice on how to play this correctly?

Re: Premier Parking Solutions

Advice to ignore is ok in certain situations if there is/was no keeper liability in play. One problem is that people do not understand why or what will happen if they do.

On a very basic level, ignoring has worked for you, so far. If you didn't understand that you'd get plenty letters when ignoring then you've totally misunderstood the advice. At present there are no appeal options open to you so either continue to ignore all but a letter before claim & court papers or pay up.

This matter is not dead until the statute of limitations applies (6 years in E&W).
