The parking co. quickly accepted a copy of my hotel bill and

Why didn't you just tell them to get ****ed?

That's what I did but politely. If they had persued it I'd have
happily gone to court and got costs etc...

It was my understanding you can just ignore them and not pay, you
don't even have to reply to them.


You can. It is sometimes easier to just write a nice polite letter.
I would imagine if such a matter ended in court and it was shown
that your first line of defence was a letter to the car parking
company telling them to get ****ed then you may not get your full
costs awarded.


As far as I know, they aren't allowed to fine you anyway? So just
ignoring them completely should work fine.
When the ex gf was reported for letting her dog foul the pavement
it was much more fun to send a nice polite letter explaining that
she did not have a dog and that she totally agreed with the
councils views on dog fouling as she had a young child who she
would not want to step in dog ****.


I was banned from a running club after I was seen running along with
my dog and tripping everyone up.


You should have bought a dog and called it Zola Budd.
