Just ignore everything they send to you. They have to prove a loss. As the car park was free there is no loss. The letters will demand you say who was driving etc.  Ignore the lot. As said before the bin is the only place.

Yes mate, thats the place.
I have to say though...I did not know the lower section of the car park was in different ownership. I'll have a check this week to see if they have a restriction :y
Thanks for the post :y

I got similar for staying 4 hours in a 3 hour limit car park, just ignore the letters, don't respond to them, don't right to them. It will cost them to take you to court and for what? No loss of earnings as its a free car park.

They will try and scare you with all kinds of bull, just ignore  :y

Yeah, I've had one too. Cannot remember the company name but they were on Watchdog. The advice there was to bin the letters. Apparently they even have a fake debt-collecting company who will try to scare you into paying the money.

As long as you caused no damage to the property the most they can ask for is a percentage of £0 = £0. Not got a leg to stand on so no chance of going to court.

From memory I think you get 6 letters, then the fake debt-collectors and then they give up.

Cheshire services just send out 3 letters before they give up!  ;D ;D ;D

More intelligent up there, perhaps? Well, away from the footballer belt.  :)

If I don't respond after 3 I'm hardly likely to, am I? Should guess the game is up!

Can you not send them a cheque which has been covered in Doggie doo? I bet they never cash it  ::) ::)

Nice idea.  :)

I think you avoid any kind of contact as otherwise you might be implying they have a case.
