A lot of people are too scared or just do not have time to actually fight a parking or a Road traffic fine received in the post.

There are lots of laws that do protect you, as with receiving the ticket on time, the pictures or video taken that can actually cancel a ticket. However on that is more usual than the normal council is that of private firms at the Supermarkets.

Well let me tell you if you receive a fine on private ground such as supermarkets, they are not fines, they are invoices, and cannot be enforced by law at all. The companies that are subcontracted by they supermarkets may put a ticket on your car, but have no rights in law to collect the money.

They use methods that are really scary, by using debt collector, who again have no rights, and if they overstep their mark can be actually shut down.

These parking companies use the ignorance of the people to intimidate until payment is received.

The only way any of these tickets can be valid is, if these companies take you to court at a cost with their solicitors, and if you have proof you shopped in the store, you can only be charged ?2.00 if nothing at all.

The company knows this, and will intimidate you, but will never take you to court as the costs outweigh what they would receive.

Never ever pay these tickets which are in a fact an invoice. They are not LAW.

    • What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.
    • Sometimes a shed or other installation has to have written approval from the freeholder i.e. Southwark, Southwark has (or did have) a Leaseholder Association.   Could also come under Anti Social Behaviour Unit.
    • Love Dulwich is great but has a large step in front. We have only been weekdays at Lunch time. Maria's next to Picture House is disabled friendly. Also can reserve table in advance. We did a Sunday lunch catch up with family - there were 8 of us.
    • Hi, Thinking about  going with some friends and was just wondering if folk might like to report back please. Most importantly sound level when busy & is it disabled friendly.  Thinking on a Sunday lunchtime but don’t want a busy busy environment or loud chatter - a couple of friends could not cope. Time can be flexible, if that helps - say 2 ish to avoid above.. Thanks…
