| I'm lost for words. Islington Parking Services bites back [message #772471] |
Mi, 07 Juni 2006 19:14 |
|
I'm not sure what to say, really.
There was a letter waiting at home from Islington Parking Services
addressed to me.
<sigh>
Those of you unfamilar with my Islington Parking Services complaint of
January or February are probably quite fortunate.
I have in my hands a *new* parking ticket.
<http://hayn.gotadsl.co.uk/ukrm/islington.jpg>
Evidently I parked my Vauxhall/Blue with registration EO02 MYK in
Eburne Road, N7 at 12:50 on 9th May '06.
I got straight on the blower to IPS who pulled up the Penalty Charge
Notice and verified that they have a high resolution photo of the
front of the car displaying the registration EU02 MYK, the rear of the
car displaying the registration EU02 MYK and the tax disc of the car
displaying the registration EU02 MYK. Evidently it's a blue Vauxhall
estate car with ladders on the roof.
Mrs. IPS verified that it's exactly the same car my motorcycle (EO02
MYK) was ticketed for earlier in the year She checked which traffic
officer issued the ticket on both occasions and they are two different
people.
Mrs. IPS wants me to write a covering letter enclosing a copy of my
motorcycle registration document to them so they can present their
case to see if they can get the ticket written off. Evidently if I
don't then I'm liable to pay it.
When I'm in a better frame of mind I'm going to write the shittiest of
shitty shit letters to that bitch who runs the Council asking her to
explain why my bike has been incorrectly charged for a parking
violation not once, but twice. I may well post a lump of shit to IPS
in place of a CC.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember BGN <nickmooney [at] spamcop.net> saying
something like:

The usual bullshit. I trust you bit her head off with logic.

Keep the shit for later and smear it all over the doorhandles of the
Borough limousine.

I would write a simple letter pointing out that the same error has been
made on two separate occasions. I would then state that this clearly
demonstrates that the council and their contractor are incompetent and
that you are referring the matter to the District Auditor (or whoever is
responsible for assessing the management competence / efficiency of
local authorities). I'd also state that you are not going to waste any
more time sending anything to the council by way of evidence and that
you are not paying them a penny for anything and have no liability to
them in respect of this latest farce.
A quick letter to the editor of a national newspaper might also be fun
if they need one of those nice "barking mad loony council parking fuck
up" articles to fill some space on a slow news day.

Tell her, impolitely, to fuck off and refer her to previous
correspondence. Remind her that last time it cost the council £25.
Don't waste any more time on the cunts. Simply say that if they want to
see you in court, they can, and it will cost them thousands.

A missed opportunity. You should have told him what a great fuck she was
too, then hung up.

I'm on the second draft of Shitty Letter #1 and have incorporated
elements of both Paul and your own suggestions. It's a bit longer
than I like and got a bit repetitive in places but it's quoted below:
Dear Helen Bailey,
This letter is in reference to Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) IS1111
which has been mistakenly issued to the incorrect vehicle registration
number on 9th May '06. I am again writing about the inadequacy of
procedures used by Islington Parking Services (IPS) when transcribing
information onto parking tickets.
You have heard from me previously and awarded me a 'good will' gesture
in relation to PCN IS0000 which was incorrectly issued on 5th November
'05. I'm sure you've got my details on file and hope you will
investigate this matter further as nothing appears to have been learnt
since last year.
In summary, (IS0000) I was mistakenly issued with a parking ticket due
to one of your traffic wardens writing down a registration plate
incorrectly from a blue Vauxhall car (Registration EU02 MYK) and
registering the ticket against my black Kawasaki motorcycle
(Registration EO02 MYK) and the case carrying on until late February
or early March this year until I contacted you to settle the complete
farce IPS had created when they threatened to take me to court as they
said I was responsible for the charge as the reasons for my appeal
were rejected due to some huge admin error.
Today I was shocked and saddened to find yet another "Notice to Owner"
from Islington Parking Services had been delivered to my home with PCN
IS1111. Evidently a "Vauxhall/Blue" with the registration EO02 MYK
(my motorcycle registration) had been recorded as being parked without
displaying a pay & display ticket in Eburne Road, N7 [at] 12:50 on 9th
May '06. Yet again I phoned IPS who took the new PCN details and
verified that they have a photograph of the front of a blue Vauxhall
estate car with ladders on top displaying the registration EU02 MYK, a
photo of the rear of the car displaying the registration EU02 MYK and
a photo of the tax disc displaying the registration EU02 MYK. However,
the warden put EO02 MYK down on the ticket.
The agent at your IPS office looked at the previous PCN from last year
and has verified the car is the same as the last time. I asked her to
check which warden issued the ticket and both were issued by different
people.
When this happened in November it was very, very annoying and took a
long time to put straight. It happening once would have been just a
minor inconvenience if IPS hadn't threatened to take me to court but I
see absolutely no reason why I should be subjected to the same
treatment again. Can you please explain why this not only happened to
me last year, but has happened to me again this year?
In your last letter from the old PCN you assured me you felt your
Council had not behaved in a negligent manner in relation to the
ticket before you awarded me with a monetary gesture. It's happened
again in an identical situation by the same Council - is this not
negligence? I'm at a loss to describe it in any other way. You have
provided a disservice to me. I don't even live in London and I
haven't been to Islington for years but yet again here I am, writing
another complaint and I'm having to pay Special Delivery costs on top
as I don't even have faith in your post room to get this letter to
you.
It's becoming increasingly difficult not to take this personally. How
many more times am I going to have to do this? The odds of this
happening to the same car and being billed to me twice by two
different wardens must be astronomical would you not agree?
This same error has now been made to my determent on two separate
occasions. I think this clearly demonstrates that Islington Council
and their contractor are incompetent and if it carries on for much
longer I will refer it to your District Auditor (or whoever is
responsible for assessing the management competence and efficiency of
your Council.)
I also wish to make clear that I do not wish to waste any more of my
time sending anything to the council by way of evidence as you appear
to have the photographs on file already and that I am not going to pay
a penny to you for anything and have no liability to you in respect of
the next chapter of this sham your Coulcil have chosen to write.
I feel that it's reasonable to demand that you should investigate this
matter fully as a matter of urgency and respond to my queries. Please
provide me with the contact details of your District Auditor or
similar body so I may contact them if this matter isn't resolved to my
satisfaction swiftly. If it's going to take months like before I
would gladly argue the case in court (I would win - it would cost you
thousands) and it would certainly provide an excellent filler article
on a slow day for a newspaper.
Yours Sincerely,
Nicholas Mooney.

As a former council employee, I doubt that(a) Helen wasserface will ever see
the letter and (b) the person tasked with reading it and replying to it will
be cannon fodder stuck there to take the flak whoi'll then just get pissed
off with you.
I'd go with TOGs suggestion or, in a similar vein, send the penalty notice
back with a piece of A4 with huge capirtals reading:
"PLEASE CHECK WITH DVLA AS TO THE CORRECT IDENTITY FOR THE VEHICLE WITH THIS
REGISTRATION"
And, in tiny type
"and then fuck off and leave me alone. Thank you.
Love,
Nick Mooney"
at the bottom.
That should get the message across whilst showing you still have a sense of
humour.

How old was he when he turned up at his first *OSM and I had to put his tent
up?
IIRC (and I probably don't) that was the infamous Derek and Clive/settee

Just don't pay it and wait for the court date. Then go to court with the
most expensive solicitor you can find and get damages and costs.

I wouldn't bother, Nick. Just send a very short letter pointing out the
difference in the registrations and then wait for them to invite you to

I work for a large company and know that letters to the MD are read

The thing is, the correct identity of the person on the PCN is me,
because they wrote down my registration mark.

Draft 1 (sadly never sent) of my reply to the first PCN last year
looked something like:
""
Yes, my dear, the DVLA may well have given you the details of who uses
EO02 MYK - my plate - but if actually look at the fucking photo
through your four semi-evolved beady little eyes you'll notice the
registration mark of the cunting car in question is EU02 MYK you dried
up barren shadow of an old buck-toothed hag.
I wish you a lifetime of unhappiness and hope you die of a chronic
swelling seeping fanny disorder.
Kindest Regards,
Nick Mooney D.D.

Ah, yes. Noted approximately 10 seconds before you posted this reply.....
try changing it to "ARE YOU *SURE* YOU'VE GOT THE REG. NUMBER RIGHT?" and
get that solicitor who's always getting people off speeding on the case -
I'm sure he'll be up for a non win/no fee case what with the extra publicity

Way too long and too much bile.
Below is a subbed version:
Dear Ms. Bailey,
This letter is in reference to Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) IS1111
which has been mistakenly issued to the incorrect vehicle registration
number on 9th May '06.
You have already incorrectly accused me of parking illegally in your
borough f and awarded me a goodwill'gesture in relation to PCN IS0000.
Check your files
Now you have done it again. I suggest you look at the paperwork relating
to this ticket and learn the difference between the registration numbers
EU02 MYK and EO02 MYK.
It's becoming increasingly difficult not to take this personally. What
are the odds of this happening to the same car and being billed to me
twice by two different wardens?
This is absolutely my last correspondence on this matter. Should you be
unwise enough to pursue me for this fine, I shall gladly see you in
court. It will cost you thousands. Should you have been additionally
unwise enough to call in the bailiffs, I shall initiate a defamation
action against you, and I assure you - I will win and it will cost you
many more thousands.
Now, please find enclosed my invoice for £25 for my time and trouble
(this being the sum you last paid me as a goodwill gesture). I expect
speedy settlement, or I shall take this matter up personally with XXXX,
who agreed my previous settlement.

I'd agree, except that I'd give them *one* chance to redeem themselves.

I see where you're coming from, but AFAICT they had their chance to deal
with it over the phone. Definitely no more than one chance, though.

You really ought to think about writing this up for one of the bike rags.
And when it happens again (as it surely will), write it up again. This
could be a nice regular income.

Tell her to look at /her/ photograph, and /her/ ticket, and decide for
herself if there's any discrepancy, and then decide for herself if she wants
to take further action. If she still wants to proceed, you'll see her in
court, and the court will explain things to her. And she'll be named as a
material witness by your solicitor.

I particularly like these two paragraphs. However I'd up the £25
"charge" as we are now in "beyond a joke" territory.
The letter should be short and to the point. It should also not be
overly emotional or personal - no matter how fucking angry the author
feels.

No, Nick's reg is EO02MYK.
The cunt who's causing him grief has EU02MYK.
The error is the blind cunts looking at the photos in IPS's archives
and whathaveyou.

Have you considered becoming a parking attendent for Islington Council?
You appear to have all the necessary qualifications.

I dunno, he appears able to read a number plate accurately and write it
down as well, this would suggest he is grossly overqualified.

That's the same rag that trotted out the same bile about the TT
marshalls this week, then. Gosh, they've been busy putting people
'undercover' 2 years on the run to find exactly the same problems.
No wonder I stopped buying it years ago, bloody sensationalist shite.
