Private parking tickets / Re: Gemini Parking Solutions - St Margaret's Hospital Windsor

« on: November 18, 2024, 06:59:05 pm »

Ok, huge error on my side. No the vehicle is registered with my company, I received the notice to keeper through my company who received it through the post.

I did not try PALS is that also the case for private hospitals?

I am the day keeper of the vehicle, it is a fleet car.

So there are no real options available to me now? If I let it roll on to court, does the fact I paid initially destroy my fairly good defence in this instance?

Private parking tickets / Gemini Parking Solutions - St Margaret's Hospital Windsor

Hi All,

I received a private parking ticket, which as I have a fleet car didn't get to me for some time. I arrived at the car park for a hospital appointment at 14.47pm and left at 15.36pm, my appointment of which I have proof of was at 15.15. The hospital had one of the touch screen enter your registration type terminals. I can only assume that I must have typed in my registration incorrectly at this point.

A few weeks later my firm passed the fine on to me. I went on their online portal and paid the £60 fine, it lets you enter the amount yourself I must add. As I just wanted the matter over and couldn't be bothered with the flurry of letters you usually get.

Today my company has passed me a letter from debt recovery plus. They are demanding £125 for failure to pay. When I called them they told me I had paid the £60 too late and the increased amount of £100 was applicable at the time I paid. So now they are asking me to pay in total £185 for a ticket which I think was dubious to begin with.

What are the next steps I should take? Let me know if you need any more information?

Thanks,

Private parking tickets / Successfully had CCJ set aside. No what do I do?

I recently had a CCJ set aside. The judgement was sent to an old address, so I had no idea about it until I checked my credit report. The original claim was for 2 parking tickets. One of which i was in my own space in our apartment complex, but the parking pass had slid down my dash and what partially out of view. I disputed this with them proving it was my right to park in the space by sending them a copy of my pass. The second, I was parked in a loading bay at the front of our flats at the height of the Covid lockdowns. I was in the process of moving out over a number of weeks and it was far easier to load goods here rather than the car park which was quite a walk away.

My questions is now that I have had it set aside. The judge has ordered that I submit a defence by a certain date. It was my understanding that the claimant would have to reapply for the CCJ? So do I need to wait for the CCJ letter to come through? As it may be they have retracted their application based on it being set aside. Also if anyone can give any advice on how to structure a defence that would be really helpful? Or general advice. Thanks for reading.
