Parking Eye and County Court Business Centre.
Discussion
It is not possible for anyone to help you if you do not supply a single fact about the case other than that Parking Eye may be about to sue you or have sued you. If you list in a clear and unemotive way the circumstances that led to you receiving a parking ticket from Parking Eye (this is a type of invoice - it may or may not be enforceable), then people may be able to offer you some advice as to whether you should pay the invoice or contest it.
Hi guys, sorry ive been a bit all over the shop today, ive been driving my Mx5 all day with one eye on the phone, dominating the fast lane and throwing red bulls at powerfully built directors in the land rovers while giving my Seiko timemaster some wrist time. So here I am.
Yeah, basically I parked there and I probably shouldnt and I ignored previous correspondence.
Parking charge was issued on 22/04/2020 at a fitness centre (By the park) in Maidstone. I was walking the dog at the park, and the car park was empty (Cos Covid)
Offence was 19/04 - overstaying max stay period in spite of signage
I have 14 days from day of service to respond (Day of service is 5 days after the date of issue, which is the 26th)
It has various options, agree with all the claim, pay now, agree with claim, want more time to pay, admit only part of the claim, or disagree with claim/ counterclaim
If I pay now, am I a big pussy and will it affect my credit record? Frozen sausages dont buy themselves!

Date of issue shown on invoice
Date you received it
Have you pictures of the parking notice? It could be of a forbidding nature
on the invoice do is the wording we INVITE you to tell us eho was driving. This phrase is a must as per POFA 2012
Does it show the length of alleged parking.. bear inmind that a picture of you enterinmg and one leaving is NOT proof of parking inly that you were on the premises during those times noted eg you could have been driving around looking for a spot to park
Have you admitted to them who was driving?
You may be able to fight this IF touy give ALL the facts and answer all questions TRUTHFULLY if you get onto pepipoo
Buit you musr do sas they say

How much is being claimed?
Work out how many hours of your time fit into that amount (include at least a day for trial). Let's say it's £200 claimed and you value your time at £20 an hour. It wont take long for your defence to become a principled one over a pragmatic one.
Unless you believe you're innocent, paying up is possibly the best course of action.

No sensible lawyer would say that to a client. Following advice is always optional. Your cult like adoration of that rather strange website seems odd, but I suppose that everyone needs a hobby.

OP, in very broad summary (please note the words very broad summary)-
1. There are some statutory hoops that the parking company has to jump through in order to make its claim valid.
2. If it has jumped through those hoops, then the question becomes one of whether you by your conduct made a contract with the parking company.
3. An important question is whether the parking company had communicated its parking conditions sufficiently by putting up notices that you could reasonably have seen.
4. Ignoring the earlier correspondence was a bit silly, but you are where you are now. You might have a good defence to the claim or you might not. As noted above, you have to take a view on whether the hassle of fighting the claim is worthwhile. Some posters here get very excitable about these cases, and seem to regard private parking tickets as the greatest evil in the history of humanity, but dull and pragmatic reality may inform your decisions.

Your only saving grace is that you like Dolomites lol
It isnt cult like >they are a good bunch of lads who help motorists out
Whether they take up their advice/assistance is up to them
Everytime someone mentions MSE/Peipoo you come in with the same old song
Yet you never offer anything, you occupation should be a poiltician in opposition Bad mouths everything and never giving any alternatives

Read the thread above. Real world advice from me, but none of your absurd YOU MUST OBEY!!!! cultery. The OP can make his or her own mind up whether to stay here and get advice from people who inhabit Planet Earth, or go to your fave cult website and worship at the altar of one of the most bizarre of modern obsessions.
Nothing, most likely, but the "war on motorists" paranoia is never far away in the fruityloopier bits of S,P&L.
BTW, it can be fun to read the ranty letters pages in car magazines from the 50s, 60s, and 70s, which tend to proclaim the death of motoring in much the same way as PH threads do. Those characters running the war on motoring seem pretty rubbish at winning it.
