Thanks for the reply. Yes i have all the tickets etc. I could not see the point of complaining to Trainline because obviously it is there on my booking form that the dates were wrong, is there any precedent in them getting it wrong etc? Also would anybody know the number/email address to contact for the train operator it was 'National Express East Coast'. Thanks

Hi Just wondering if there is any point in appealing a an extra ticket i needed to buy while on a recent journey. Would like your thoughts please. Scenario I had a work trip to York for two nights. I booked the tickets on trainline.com for (what i thought was) outgoing on 2nd and return on 4th. I picked up tickets from station and did outgoing journey without trouble. On the return journey two days later, the conductor guy asked for tickets and noticed that i had the wrong date (date on the tickets were for the same day the 2nd). I was gobsmacked, but he was right, the wrong date was on my ticket and my confirmation letter. I obviously fluffed it up while booking. He suggested to me that i give him my, ID he would then pass info on, and the rail company would contact me. But as i didnt have ID there was no way to prove my address so i needed to buy an extra ticket there on the spot!!! My initial ticket was only £42 booked in advance. But this ticket for just the return was £51!!!!! Do you think i have a chance of getting this money back, if i can prove i did not try to cheat them etc Thanks for slogging through this question, any help would be great.

I have checked my Lease, and can see no mention of any Parking rights etc. I will have to just wait and see, whether this parking company accept my appeal. Ill let you know what happens. Thanks for help.

Lamma - Thats a good question, i have signed a lease for the flat, i shall have to check it when i get home. I know that there is a sign in the car park (cannot remember the exact wording) stating that a permit must be shown in the cars at all times. But surely the fact that my permit was locked away in a garage so i could not retrieve it has to mean something.

Hi Thanks for your help. I rent the flat, and with it comes two parking spaces, i just parked my hire car in their as i do every day. So is the reccomendation to just ignore any potential letters etc? They have no power to go ahead with any possible actions? Cheers

Hi People I have only just spotted this site, and it has eased my mind somewhat, but i would still like your input. I received a CPEA (County Parking Enforcement Agency Notice) on the 04/11/08. It was in a yellow wallet attached to my windscreen. I was parked in my flats allocated parking space in the underground parking. But i didnt have my parking permit displayed in my window. I was actually in a Courtesy Car while my own car (with the permit) was being fixed in a garage. I had actually only picked up the vehicle the day before. They are saying i need to pay the £40 fine in 14 days or it doubles. I immediately sent an appeal letter through with proof of my hire car etc advising that i could not get my permit cos it was locked in a garage somewhere overnight. I have not heard back yet whether my appeal was successful. I have since looked at this site and EVERYONE says not to reply back etc and admit anything I have of course now admitted that it was me etc and gave them my address. If i get a letter through saying i still need to pay, do you think its in my rights to ignore it because . 1. it is not my actual vehicle 2. it was MY Bloody parking space in the first place. I would really appreciate any input you may have. Thanks
