right a fue of you know ive been having probs wid the car the end is in sight for that. so.. thats left me in the unique situation of low funds, yey. so im at colleage 1day a week doing plubmbing i go to leave coleage and ive got a parking ticket from some indipendent ticket company (co*ks), i have a valid permit that was on display on my dash. the fine came through and showed a pic of my windscreen when the permit was displayed on the dash. i appealed and they sent a letter back explaining no you have to pay £40.00 fine. ive written back asking them to provide sufficient proof!

as if the day cant get worse i was short changed at the cash machine in strood nationwide by £40 quid, is this a sign the (£40) keeps reappering so currently the bank are trying to sort that out, so im £40 down and some Co*ks i mean traffic company are trying to get another £40 out of me. i h8 people taking the michel. tillle frustrated i am probably one of the unluckyest people i know when it comes to money. (gay) not impressed they dont even have an office you can complain at

Bl00dy 'ell mate you haven't had it easy

At least when you're a plumber you can just add £40 quid on to the bill to replace things like a '9step recoil flange' or a 'blunt-tipped axial beef whistle"

Just ask Prodrive Tony how he does it...

Good luck

PS Don't park near me :brickwall:

With regards to the ticket - only the police and local council can force you to pay a fine. i.e. take you to court etc.

All the other companies do is write to the registered owner of the vehicle and frighten them into paying. Of course it need not have been the registered owner who was driving the vehicle that day! Hint.

They just get the information from the DVLA database and hound people into paying and the majority of the time they will do. If it's not police or council issued, tell them where to go. They will get the message eventually.

Sorry to hear this Matt, yes it does sound like you feel like a Turkey and that you just caught Bernard Mathew's grinning at you,

We have all been through this before at some stage, so you are not alone.

Dunks has lots of cash ask him for £40 :D

I'm sure Matt and TWS (Nathan) must be related, or from another planet.

Or is it that I'm old?

I cannot understand either of them?

Old :D
