DS parked in a hotel car park when he was working overnight elsewhere.
Today he has had a demand from Parking Eye for £100 (£60 if paid within 14 working days).
He parked in the car park. He didn't buy a ticket. Surely he hasn't got an excuse.
He is adamant that he doesn't have to pay private 'charges' and has emailed them telling them he will pay the cost of the 4 hour stay.
We went down this route before with Napier Parking and they were just really unpleasant and we ended up paying anyway to avoid the stress (which is of course what they want).
This one is Parking Eye and they have shots of him going in and out.
He is convinced that these 'charges' don't have to be paid, but all I can find on the internet suggests that they do, and that pleading 'excessive charges' is unlikely to be successful, even though the charge is very high compared with the cost of buying a ticket in the first place.
He has very little money and the £60 wipes out everything he earnt that night. Forgot to mention that he has Aspergers and is very stubborn.
I know there have been threads about this before.
Anyone with accurate up to date knowledge?
