Title: Re: Horizon Parking Charge - Oldings Corner Retail Park / Tesco Hatfield

Thanks so much.

It was received within time, unfortunately.

Guessing that means nothing to be done?

Thanks!

Yes, but that assumes it was actually posted on the date on the form. They're supposed to keep a record of this, so if it arrived well outside of the required date, worth a poke to check they actually did what they are supposed to. Without identifying the driver of course!

It will be “deemed delivered” on 17 June which is well within 14 days. Trying to make out any later date was Horizon’s fault will be hard.

Signs in the carpark on Street View appear to say 15 mins outside of store opening.

What date did you receive this notice?   It appears to be compliant with POFA, so potential for keeper liability - but it would need to have been delivered within 14 days of the incident.

Hello,
I'd be very grateful for assistance with a parking charge notice received from Horizon.
The driver stopped in the car park on a journey from Cambridge to London. Tesco's was closed and the carpark was effectively deserted. They did not see any signs regarding time limits for parking - though cannot go back to check as they live a long way away. They have a disabled badge, which was displayed throughout.
