Hi there,
Basically i need help on fighting back to a company named ZZPS who are debt collectors which have taken control of my original fine from my college (Chichester college). They are trying to fine me £150 which i just cannot pay as i am a student. I ignored the original fines from my college as i knew it was private land and there wasn't much they could do, but now they have taken it to ZZPS should i be worried? i have been threatened with this quote "a recent supreme court ruling (ParkingEye -v- Beavis) has confirmed that parking charge issued on private land is enforceable and the parking charge does not breach the unfair terms in consumer contract regulations". What can i do to stop these guys from taking this any further and trying get a larger sum of money out of me?!? Thanks |

Always ignore ZZPS
There is nothing you can write that will change the letter chain Some background to the charge will help - ZZPS normally adds about £60 and a £90 original charge sounds very high for a college unless it's employed a parking contractor Does your contract with the college say that it can with-hold degrees if there are outstanding charges |

ZZPS haven't 'taken control' they are collecting on behalf of the original creditor. To clarify they are debt collectors, that's a very different animal to a Bailiff.
It's an invoice for parking not a fine. The original creditor can take you to court (civil claim) for the amount owed, I'm not sure that's "Not much they can do". What can you do? Start by understanding where you are, the true and full legal situation etc. Currently your like a sailor in the middle of an ocean asking the heading for a port but not actually knowing where you're starting from!

Please post the PCN, redacted of identifying information but leave the dates. Use TinyPic or imgur and post the [img] tags to this thread.

Are you an "Authorised" user? Not that i know of, please define authorised user? Read the signs you posted! Fourth condition Stop identifying the driver Every Single thread you've seen and read tells you not the identify the driver. |

First line of the first sign you posted up.
Parking is for authorised users only, there is no offer of parking to unauthorised users therefore there can be no contract and therefore no breach and therefore no charge. The only claimant is the landholder and then only for trespass. This post has been edited by ostell: Thu, 14 Feb 2019 - 22:27 |

The only claimant is the landholder and then only for trespass. As i am a student of the college do you think this makes me an authorised user of the car park. I can't find anything relating to what defines an authorised user of the car park. I have managed to get a hold of the PCN they gave me back when i was charged, i will reattached when i have redacted sensitive data This post has been edited by jolley101: Tue, 19 Feb 2019 - 06:22 |

You've hinted at the driver.
If you don't know who is authorised then I'm darn sure we don't. Ask the college? |
