Hi All,
A month ago, I traded up an old car which had a personalised plate (Let's call it A12 OLD).
The new one came with a standard one (XY65 NEW).
It took about 5 days from the day I drove away the new car,
to get the DVLA red tape sorted (documents received etc)
so the garage could put A12 OLD on the new car.
At the block of flats where I live is a car park,
and each vehicle that "lives" there gets a permit,
which bears the registration of the vehicle.
It's managed by a company called Euro Parking Services Ltd.
We put a note on the dashboard explaining the situation,
and put the permit on the dashboard as always.
But still, on the 3rd Day, we got a parking ticket.
I've appealed this to the company (showing them the letter from the DVLA which explains
that "A12 OLD can now be put on XY65 NEW") and they have rejected it.
I have also gone through the IAS (Independent Appeals Service), and they have rejected the appeal.
I've got all the documents since day 1, and I'll happily answer any questions.
As an aside,
the company's address is just up the road,
is there any value in walking up there and having a face-to-face conversation with someone?
Or should I just ignore it?
