Parking ticket.

[c_dug]

Ive posted this on pepipoo but just incase you guys can help at all.

[Rockhopper]

Failure to display a current excise licence is an absolute offence so you are screwed on that account.

Didn't know parking wardens could ticket becasue of it though!

If its a private car park which it sounds to be as its ran by premier parking solutions it will be their wardens running it, so if thats the case which id guess is quite likely they cant ticket you for no tax, real traffic wardens can tho now i think.

Before I say a thing I need to see a copy of the ticket.

[The Disapproving Brit]

Ignore it. Tickets issued by private companies like that aren't fines, just invoices. They might send a dodgy letter or two, but they won't take it any further.

My nan's disability badge fell off the windscreen and we told them the charges were dropped

[Courageous T]

do you study at Fal?
I'm second yuear broadcasting, and i've left my car up there for an hour later than the ticket let me and nothing hapened. Thought they were fairly lax compared to last year's owners.

[MattEMulsion]

I would say that its bordering on a scam and that they have no legal right to issue you a ticket at all. Just ignore it or tell them to go to hell.

Completely unenforcable. Bin it.

(by unenforcable, I mean they'd have to take you to court, and they ain't gonna cos if they lose they'd pretty much destroy the entire scam parking industry)

It looks rather unenforceable.

As it looks like it was issued on private land where there is no requirement to actually have let alone display VED and it appears to be a University I would be inclined to write to the Bursar and ask exactly when the University was authorised by Customs and Excise to collect penalty charges on behalf of the Crown as that is what they are 'suggesting' they are doing and that would be fraud without the correct authorisation. I would also point out that I would be reporting it to the Police as a possible fraud.

While private parking attendants cannot issue fines for non-display of VED, (they don't have the authorisation) that ticket isn't signed properly anyway.

Feck them off. Tickets issued by private parking companies are only worth the paper they are printed on to the company issuing them.

Other than that, what sickpup said.

Just thought, as well as the Police I would report it to Customs and Excise. C&E have such ridiculous powers these days they could cause the University and the Parking company some real problems.

As Pup says, in addition there is a period of discretion nowadays to take into account people ordering tax through the internet, as this would be within this period should your friend done so for the start of the month then "failure to display" would not apply.
