Parking by Sainsbury's Great West Local

Anyone else received a ticket for parking just by Sainsbury's local? Mine was there for ten minutes whilst shopping. PCM have now sent a bill and a threat of debt collectors. I'm not paying. There was no sign to be seen and it looks like Sainsbury's parking. Annoying to say the least.

If it's a private company, ignore it.

The true guru on parking matters is Richard Jennings who posts regularly on Chiswick W4

Thanks Jim. Very helpful. I'll let you know what happens.

Parking to nip to the Sainsburys there? You must be joking!

Agreed it's a headache parking near there and when the 235 buses are arriving or leaving at the same time a bit of chaos occurs.I visited once ..but never again. Even the shoppers looked dodgy. I now get Sainsburys jumbo porridge oats from another branch!Regarding the parking fine... I don't think it's enforceable according to press reports and Google searches.http://www.justanswer.com/uk-traffic-law/7oavy-hi-i-recieved-parking-ticket-parking-control-management.html

Who are the people weho have "unhealthy links"  with local politicans and who are the local politicans with the "unhealthy links"  ?

We were threatened with that by a nasty attendant. Never been back since.

Mentioned on this site many times, I'm afraid.They have even ticketed and ambulance and a bus!If you think that's bad you should hear about the way some of the leaseholders are treated by the property management.An organisation that has unhealthy links with some local politicians
