I hate these companies so so much

They’re all so corrupt. Go look at Zoe Bread tiktok for Manchester SIPs and that some are known to not pay business rates for over 6 years and yet nothing is done by the council.
There will be someone in derby making a very small bit of money out of these excel car parks

Rogue parking companies aside, I really like how this article tells you the current situation, then goes on to summarise the whole case history in plain English, including the back and forth of legal arguments in the original court case.

It really feels like the parking model for large operators is to set conditions that some nonzero proportion of drivers will inevitably fail to meet, then try to extort them for as much as possible. It’s shocking that it’s legal to run a national business in that way. Some credit also needs to go to the businesses commissioning operators to run their parking then turning a blind eye to how they have facilitated these pirates in extorting their own customers.

Excel still insist they are in the right!
Fortuntately, because so many private parking companies behave so badly and their trade associations are unable or unwilling to enforce guidance, the government is in the process of establishing mandatory regulations for all private parking companies.
Currently a consultation is under way, so give your thoughts here:

Why should the charity get the money. She incurred a ton of stress through this situation and deserves compensation as well.
Sounds like Excel Parking isn’t getting the massage…
Hey Judge, I think an extra 0 on the end each time they appeal would be a good idea.
I hope they took no longer than 5 minutes to pay the fine
