       [venting-ON] The time taken to research and provide the advice
       is free. What is not appreciated is when that advice is
       completely disregarded and and someone pays the scammers, thus
       becoming part of the problem rather than the solution. I
       specifically told you not to pay.
       It is not and never was a "fine". I blame our shitty education
       system for not enlightening people at an early age to some very
       basic facts about their rights and the civil justice system.
       That "ignorance" is precisely what these rip-off firms rely on
       and it is an uphill struggle to just educate tiny fraction of
       recipients of these speculative invoices that they mistakenly
       consider as "fines" as though they are in breach of some
       criminal statute and so poop their pants and just pay.
       These firms issue well over 42,000 PCNs a day! Yes, you read
       that right... every single day. We get to deal with a minuscule
       fraction of that number and in over 99.9% of cases where our
       advice is followed, not a penny is paid to fund these scamming
       companies.
       So, yes, it is disappointing to hear that yet another victim has
       succumbed to their ignorance of the system and how to stand up
       for their rights, especially after time and effort is expended
       trying to assist them and save them their hard earned money. Now
       that it has been paid, you will be marked as a "mug" by these
       companies and you are likely to be scammed again, not
       necessarily with a PCN although they have your name, address and
       VRM.
       The gullible tree is ripe with low-hanging fruit.[venting-OFF]

       This probably isn’t the place to discuss this, but I agree with
       [member=26]b789[/member] about the lack of “life skills” taught
       in schools; I was lucky in that one ‘humanities’ class taught me
       the difference between civil and criminal law and the standard
       of proof required in each.
       Most of what we advise is common sense coupled with a process
       which makes sense when you understand its purpose.
       The efforts to educate people who come here are laudable, but
       still people are terrified of a ‘CCJ’ and refuse to understand
       it’s under their control. So the parking companies prey on their
       ignorance, gullibilty and fear.
