A list of weak points in a parking company's evidence, plus letters you can send back.

Steps

1. Photograph the car park signs and machines yourself, and keep your payment receipt or app record.
2. Upload every letter and evidence bundle from the parking company and ask the assistant to find inconsistencies.
3. Have it draft replies that point to each weakness, for example a floor plan instead of photos of the signs.
4. If the company drops a court claim, ask whether you can claim your costs as a litigant in person, then draft that claim.
