Gregg Van De Mark Attorney at Law

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to respond to this dispute. Unfortunately our records are accessed by notice number and parking company. Since neither has been provided here, I am unable to respond

As you know, Central Parking operates private parking lots in the Denver areaThe surface lot which is the subject of the above complaint is operated on an honor system; this lot is not manned, but is set up with a payment machine, and parking customers are expected to pay if they park in this
lotUnfortunately, many parking customers do not payIn addition, some parking customers even attempt to defraud the parking companies by creating paid receipts and bank statements, monthly parking permits, and sharing payment receipts and monthly permitsThis is a significant and substantial problem for Central Parking as it is for all parking companies who operate surface parking lotsCentral Parking has retained our office's services to assist them with their collections
As you also know, property owners have the right to protect their property from trespassersSpecifically, Central Parking, as the authorized manager of these private parking lots, has the right to establish terms and conditions under which a customer is permitted to park their vehicle or use the parking lotA customer is permitted to use the parking lot only if they fully comply with the terms and conditions established by the parking companyIf a parking customer does not fully comply with the terms and conditions, they are trespassingIssuing parking notices is one way for the parking company to enforce their property rightsTowing or booting vehicles would be alternative ways for a parking company to enforce their property rightsCentral Parking has signage posted on their parking lots detailing the terms and conditions of using their lots, including payment rates, rules and general guidelines (pre-paying for the space utilized, displaying paid receipt face up on dash, etc.)
On 6/19/15, a vehicle registered to this consumer was parked at the Central Parking lot located at California StreetThis particular parking lot is a prepay for the space your vehicle will occupyThis is the only way the lot attendant will be able to verify that the parking space has been prepaidWhen Central's lot attendant checked the lot, he went to the pay station and pulled a space report to determine which space numbers had paidThis consumer's space number was not on the report so a notice was issuedWe believe the notice is valid and cannot be dismissed
The consumer has days to dispute a notice directly with Central ParkingAfter days, any unpaid, uncollected notices are referred to our office for collectionOn 9/5/15, our attorney Gregg Van De Mark sent a reminder letter to the registered owner of this vehicleThis consumer contacted our office via fax with a copy of a payment to Park MobileOur office contacted Park Mobile and determined that the space this payment was for was not the space this consumer's vehicle was parked inIn addition, our office shows numerous other parking notices with three of them being open and unpaidWe consider this consumer a habitual offenderOur agent sent this consumer a letter with copies of the other parking notices and a statement that she owes $in outstanding notices
As a one time courtesy, our office is willing to accept $to settle all three notices if received by 12/5/

On 7/17/15, a white Toyota door vehicle with Michigan license plates was parked at the Milwaukee Redevelopment lotThis particular parking lot is a pay and display lot which requires the user to prepay for their parking space, get a receipt from the pay station and display that receipt on the dashWhen the lot attendant checked this vehicle, there was no receipt on the dash so payment could not be verified so the attendant wrote a notice for NO TICKET ON DASH and placed it on the vehicleIn addition, he noted the color, make and model of the vehicle and also took photos of the vehicleWe believe the notice is valid and cannot be dismissed
This consumer has stated she has paid this notice but as of just a few minutes ago, it was still unpaid and due
After days when the notice was not disputed or paid, it was sent to our office and our attorney sent a reminder letter for the registered owner to pay the noticeThat is why this consumer received the letterAt this time the $fine is still due

The response shows the is still dueThe amount was paid to PRRS (whomever that is) 09/18/ch *** and it cleared the bankThere was a paper on the vehicle that couldn't be read clearlyA phone number was able to be made out, but when messages were left, there was no return call to have questions answeredSo the $was paid

I have already received frthe attorney that the plate didn't match the type of car

Our client, ABM Parking has a parking lot located in downtown Cincinnati. The ABM lot attendant determined that a vehicle with license plate *** had not paid to park. A parking notice was issued and placed on the vehicle. Unfortunately the lot attendant made a typo when recording the plate and recorded ***. After days when the notice was not paid or disputed it was referred to our office. Our agent retrieved DMV records for the owner of plate and *** and sent a reminder notice to the address on file in DMV recordsUnfortunately, The ***'s plate was the one tagged. I have attached a copy of the information our office received for your reviewOur office received an email disputing this letter but no notice number or plate was sent so we were unable to assist them. We received a second email on 4/18/disputing the attorney letter. Our agent retrieved the notice information and immediately recognized the problem and voided the notice and removed the ***'s information from our database. She sent them an email explaining what had happened and that their problem was taken care of. I want to sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this cause the ***'s and they will not hear from our office again

On 5/1/this consumer's vehicle was parked at a *** lot in downtown DallasThis particular parking lot requires the user to prepay for their parking space then display the receipt FACEUP on the dashThere are several signs stating this requirement and the pay station advises to display the receipt FACEUPWhen the attendant checked this vehicle, there was a piece of paper on the dash but he was unable to view the payment information so a notice was issued for TICKET FACE DOWNWe believe the notice is valid and cannot be dismissed
I have attached a photo the attendant took on 5/1/and as you can see it would be impossible for anyone to be able to read what was underneath
Our office records all contact made by email, phone, mail or faxWhen I retrieved this account I did not show any contact from this consumer so I'm not sure what happenedIf she can send me the dates of any phone messages, I'd be happy to retrieve our records and see if and why her calls were not returnedWhen anyone sends us an email, we have an auto attendant sent back an email saying that the email has been received and when we will respondDid she get that response?
If this consumer would have paid the notice within the first days she would have received a $discountSince this has been so confusing and we are not clear where the glitches occurred, I have requested and received authorization to reduce this notice to $if paid by 7/17/

As you know, Central Parking operates private parking lots in the chicago, IL area. The surface lot which is the subject of the above complaint is operated on an honor system; this lot is not manned, but is set up with a payment machine, and parking customers are expected to pay if they
park in this lot. Unfortunately, many parking customers do not payIn addition, some parking customers even attempt to defraud the parking companies by creating paid receipts and bank statements, monthly parking permits, and sharing payment receipts and monthly permits.

Central Parking has signage posted on their parking lots detailing the terms and conditions of using their lots, including payment rates, rules and general guidelines (pre-paying for the space utilized, displaying paid receipt face up on dash, etc.)On 9/2/a vehicle registered to this consumer was parked at Central's *** *Sheridan Rd parking lot. This parking lot is a pay and display lot which requires the user to prepay for their parking space and display it on the dash. When the attendant checked this vehicle, there was no receipt or pass displayed so a notice was issued and placed on the vehicle. We believe the notice is valid. After days, when the notice was not disputed or paid, it was sent to our office. Our office retrieved the owner's address and sent out a reminder letter. This consumer contacted our office and stated that he had a pass. Our office requested proof of payment or the pass and he has never sent it to our office. He has in fact paid the notice in full. We consider this matter paid and closed. MrVan De Mark's office did nothing to attempt to "exort" money from this consumer. We merely sent him a letter reminding him of his notice and he paid it of his free will

This consumer's statement is not trueOur office sent ONE reminder letter to herShe has contacted our office several times and our agents have responded to herThis needed to be resolved by Ampco which it eventually wasOn 10/9/15, this manager did contact our office and requested this notice be voidedOur office did void the notice and closed the accountI do not believe we sent her any additional "threatening" letters and would like her to produce them if we didIf she would have paid to park and/or taken my advice to file this complaint against *** this would have been resolved a month ago

*** ***, our client sent this uncollected notice to our office. Our attorney's office retrieved DMV records and located who we believed to be the owner of this license plate. This consumer did contact our office to dispute the notice. Our agent double checked DMV records and discovered that during the period when this notice was issued another owner had this *** license plate. She sent an email to this consumer advising her the notice would be dismissed. I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused this consumer. WE believe this matter has already been resolved

On 8/19/15, a vehicle registered to this consumer was parked at ***'s 17th and Platte parking lot. This lot has numerous signs which direct the user to either download a pay by phone app or call an number to pay. When our lot checkers enter the lot, they immediately log into a phone app and display the license plates of each vehicle that has paid. When the lot checker checked this consumer's plate, it was not on the paid list so a notice was written and placed on the vehicle. This consumer has stated the he received a receipt and placed it on his dash. This is not possible because there is no machine that would provide a paper receipt on that parking lot. We believe this notice is valid and due
On 8/20/this consumer emailed our office disputing this parking notice. On 9/3/our agent responded and asked for proof of payment. We did not hear back from this consumer
After days when the notice was not paid, our MrVan De Mark's office sent a collection letter to this consumer. On 1/20/this consumer sent another dispute and a credit card statement showing a charge of $Canadian dollars for the day in question. First of all, the fee for parking on this parking lot is $USD with a cent service fee. We do not know what happen but this consumer did NOT pay for parking at this parking lot and the notice is valid. It may have been possible that this consumer mistyped in the lot number and selected a parking lot in Canada and that is where he paid. Since there is a possibility that he did try and pay the correct lot I have requested and received authorization from *** *** to reduce this notice to $if paid by 2/15/
We do not believe anyone in our office made any threats or harassed this consumer. It appears that this whole issue may have been an error committed by this consumer. Our office would have no way of knowing what he did on the night in question, all our office knows is that our client was not paid for parking and the notice is due. If this consumer has spent hours of his time it is his fault. If he did speak with one of our agents, she would have no way of knowing what this consumer had done, all she knows is that our records do not reflect a payment from him

We received the attachment sent by this consumer however the date he received the parking notice is 10/27/and while he does show a screenshot from his phone, it encompasses other dates in November etc and does not show a 10/payment

This particular parking lot is a pay and display lot which requires the user to prepay for the parking space their vehicle will occupy and to display the prepaid receipt FACEUP on the dash. This is the only way the lot attendant will be able to verify that the parking space has been prepaid. When Central's lot attendant checked the lot, there was no paid receipt on the dash. He was unable to verify payment for parking so he issued a parking notice for NO TICKET ON DASH and placed it on the vehicle. Central Parking has numerous signage directing the user to prepay and display the receipt face up on the dash, the payment machine also gives this instruction. I have attached a copy of the photo the Central lot attendant took of this consumer's vehicle showing there was not a receipt on the dash of his carWe believe this notice is valid. The violator has days to dispute a notice directly with Central Parking. After days , any unpaid, uncollected notices are referred to our office for collection. Since this notice was not paid, CPS sent it to our office and our attorney Gregg Van De Mark sent a reminder letter to this consumer. On 12/22/this consumer sent an email to our office and our agent emailed him back a verification of the debtThis notice remains open and dueI have requested and received authorization from the parking company to reduce this to $if paid by 2/28/I don't know what this consumer is implying by saying that he checked the Colorado Bar Association and MrVan De Mark is not a member. We already know he is not. This group is an optional membership for attorney's and MrVan De Mark has chosen not to subscribe. This has no bearing on whether this debt is valid or notRegards, ***

Unfortunately the lot attendants do not have discretion to cancel a notice. There should not have been any receipt on the dash which could cause confusion with the lot attendant. Please submit your a copy of any text confirmation from Park Mobile or some kind of receipt so
we can attempt to verify payment

Thank you for the opportunity to respond to this consumer's complaintI have reviewed the notice and I can tell where the error occuredAll the information this consumer has provided is correct and on this parking notice, the attendant
recorded the vehicle type as a FORD with Texas plate CFX XXXX which belongs to this consumer's wifeThe vehicle / plate in the photo taken by the lot attendant is really a CEX XXXXThe E and F have been transposedI have dismissed this notice in this consumer's wife's nameI apologize profusely that this has happened and for any inconvenience caused to this consumerHad he made a quick phone call to our office or sent an email, our agents could have quickly and easily recognized the error also and immediately rectified the problem
We will let the lot attendant know also in an effort to eliminate these issues in the future
We consider this matter resolved and the notice closed

(The consumer indicated he/she ACCEPTED the response from the business.)

This consumer has provided numerous new documentation which we do not have access to records forI have reached out to Central Parking but have not received a response yetThis complaint should have been filed against Central Parking instead of our office as all our office has done is sent a letter to this consumer reminding them of the debt owed to Central ParkingThis business of trying to resolve her payments when she has not been proactive in handling her parking ticket should not be oursI'm willing to try and resolve this for her but I'm depending on other people to provide me with information so I cannot be given a deadline

Initial Business Response /* (1000, 7, 2015/11/23) */
This consumer received a parking at Central Parking's [redacted] on 9/4/15. The lot attendant checked his plate report and since this consumer's vehicle was not on the report he determined she had not paid to park. This consumer had 30 days to...

dispute or pay this notice with Central Parking. After the 30 days had passed with no communication, this account was referred to our office. On 10/20/15 our office sent a reminder letter to this consumer regarding this notice.
On 11/11, this consumer contacted our office. Our agent returned her call and requested proof of payment. On 11/12/15, this consumer called again and our agent returned her call. Our process is that we send the proof of payment to the Central Parking manager to request permission to void the notice. We were able to verify that this consumer had paid for her parking space less than 15 minutes before the notice was issued. Since this was an issue with cross-over time, we received authorization to void this notice which I have done today.

Our office accesses all records by notice number and parking company.  SInce the notice number has not been provided, we are unable to respond to this complaint.

As you know, Platinum Parking operates private parking lots in the Dallas area.  The surface lot which is the subject of the above complaint is operated on an honor system; this lot is not manned, but is set up with a payment machine, and parking customers are expected to pay if they park in...

this lot.  Unfortunately, many parking customers do not pay. In addition, some parking customers even attempt to defraud the parking companies by creating false paid receipts and bank statements, false monthly parking permits, and sharing payment receipts and monthly permits.  This is a significant and substantial problem for Platinum Parking, as it is for all parking companies who operate surface parking lots. Platinum Parking has retained our office's services to assist them with monitoring their parking lot and their collections. As you may also know, property owners have the right to protect their property from trespassers.   Specifically, private parking companies, as the owners/authorized managers of these private parking lots, have the right to establish terms and conditions under which a customer is permitted to park their vehicle or use the parking lot.  A customer is permitted to use the parking lot only if they fully comply with the terms and conditions established by the parking company.  If a parking customer does not fully comply with the terms and conditions, they are trespassing. Platinum Parking has signage posted at the Elm Street parking lot detailing the terms and conditions of using their lots, including payment rates, rules and general guidelines (pre-paying for the space utilized, prepaying for the amount of time they will park, displaying paid receipt face up on dash, etc.)  Issuing parking notices is one way for Platinum Parking to enforce their property rights.  Towing or booting vehicles would be alternative ways for a parking company to enforce their property rights. On 1/9/16, the lot attendant pulled on to the Elm Street lot and pulled a payment report from the machine.  He then checked the vehicles and when he got to this consumer's vehicle parked in space 106, there was no payment recorded for this space so a parking notice was issued.  This consumer has submitted a receipt but it is not for space 106 so we have no idea where she got this receipt and it is not valid for this notice.  She would need to have a receipt for space #108 to dismiss this notice.  We believe the notice was validly written for non payment and the fine is due.  As a one time courtesy I am able to reduce this notice to $55.00 if paid by 2/15/16.
