Grumpy Git Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 1 hour ago, CornwallRam said: My understanding is that to enforce a parking charge through the courts, they have to be able to show that they have materially lost out by you parking there. That actually makes most of these things unenforceable. The problem is though, unauthorised match day parking could easily prevent customers parking there and thus affect Costco's footfall. Costco could show that they have lost out quite easily, so I reckon they (Parking Eye) would win these cases. Your understanding is wrong, (as has already been pointed out up-thread). If you have received a 'Parking Charge' from one of these firms and believe you have been unfairly treated, your only true recourse to get it cancelled is to directly approach the landowner and put your case to them. The parking enforcement firms exist only to extract as much revenue from you as possible, (as well as being paid by Costco to run the enforcement). The best way to stop these cowboys, is to park in accordance with their rules. Ram-Alf, GB SPORTS and Woodley Ram 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may not be true, Parking Eye will actually pay the landowner for looking after the car park in some instances, This is why Parking Eye will chase you till the ends of the earth to get that parking charge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By using the car park you are agreeing to the terms posted up and you will lose in court if you ignore any charge imposed. Yes it will be a civil court not a criminal court .. but not something you would want either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mucker1884 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Surely, if it's a matter of Derby Fans parking in Costco on a matchday, couldn't Parking Eye just by-pass the courts (bethat civil or criminal), and just get The EFL to arrange an independent tribunal, with no chance of appeal? That's gotta be the fairest way! ? CornwallRam and Boycie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was also going to ask you a members email related question, but your post above appears to suggest (*rightly or wrongly?) that your 20 year membership trumps my mere 12 year membership, to the point that my comments here aren't welcome. That, coupled with your first line above, suggests I'd be wasting my time... and that of the reader... by doing so, so I'll refrain from asking, and seek such advice elsewhere. I'll repeat my thanks for your kind warning to those this may affect, and add my apologies for my part in any causation in the aforementioned (assumed, rightly or wrongly!*) anger/frustration. *I appreciate you won't be responding, so I guess we'll never know, now. UTR, an' all that. ?? Anybody trump my 25 years (not at the Derby location I know it’s not been open that long) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
