£10,000 Parking Charge *Resolved*

[Toccs]

I called up today and spoke to the lady in question, turns out because my bike looked ragged, old and i had used the same bike parking spot it looked like my bike had been there over 6 months (with out taking it home, which is not true.

Apparently they had someone check the bikes everyday at 7:30am and my bike was always there... I said yeah because i come in at 7:00am you can check the cameras that i leave at 3pm everyday.

Anyway she said don't worry about the letter, the £10,000 charge is only to scare people into calling up and not ignoring the letter.

Apparently they have tons of expensive cars and bikes people have left for months and they want to get rid of them as they are taking up parking spaces.

no its never good advice to ignore letters like that... Because in the rare chance you do get taken to court. You have to pay all fees fines and legal charges. Its hardly worth ignoring over when you end up with a bill that could be in the tens of thousands...

Judging by the level of potato involved in checking the bikes at 7:30am etc.. I strongly suggest you get something in writing to show you are off of the hook. As soon as possible.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

ACR is a bitch and every so often when there's been an Android update, it only records what I'm saying and not what the other person is saying.

Plus I get bored every so often and delete everything it's recorded cos there won't be anything important in that load of recordings which I can't be bothered to sift through.

Mine used to do that years ago, but has worked fine recently.

And soooo glad I didn't delete the ones from years ago!
Also meant that the hour plus I was on the phone moaning to a supervisor at the Bailiff-company was their time entirely wasted . (I had it on a hands free and was doing my own thing.)

Ah, resolved... fantastic

You're supposed to notify people that calls are recorded. Note that replying to the automated recording saying the call is being recorded by saying you are as well for the purposes of verifying and archiving the coversation is entirely adequate.

Hearing people flip out when you remind them that the call is being recorded is hillarious. Particularly when you've caught them lying to you or doing something that's going to get them fired.

It's easier to assume that all calls are being recorded.

Most calls are recorded, aren't they?

[Lo-Fi]

Purely for ‘training purposes’ of course.

Further, I believe the 'admissible in court' thing only applies to companies - not to the other way around.

But yes, always amusing when someone that won't speak to you when they hear the call is being recorded. "So, what WERE you going to tell me before you realised I would have proof you said it?"
