<p>Thanks for coming back to give is the outcome. So it seems evident that there has been no new traffic management order withdrawing het refund provision. In which case they're beg outrageously dishonest in their dealings. </p>

<p>Right, so I've heard back and they're now saying exactly what they said to you Hugh back in 2017 - that if I post them back I will get a refund. Which is really disingenuous - they say one thing on the site knowing it will put most people off, and then capitulate if you push them. </p>
<p>One final issue I'd be grateful for views on, to help solve a dispute at home! We have a few ancient 'weekend passes' which cover a car from midday Friday to to midday on a Monday. They have no year on them…</p>

<p>One final issue I'd be grateful for views on, to help solve a dispute at home! We have a few ancient 'weekend passes' which cover a car from midday Friday to to midday on a Monday. They have no year on them so technically should still be valid but I'm pretty sure that if we used one we'd get a ticket as no attendant will have seen one in the near past. Has anyone used a ticket like this recently with (or without) problems? </p> I loathe these examples of Ha…tag:harringayonline.com,2018-12-31:844301:Comment:11420792018-12-31T00:00:43.054ZAlan Stantonhttps://harringayonline.com/profile/AlanStanton

<p>I loathe these examples of Haringey's apparent attempt to wriggle out of its stated obligations.<br/><br/>In my view there are fundamental principles at stake here. One is doing the right thing. They must know what it is.<br/>Second, is acting as if an elected local council exists to serve local people. And not simply to shake as much money as possible out of our pockets. <br/>Fourth: these sorts of transactions all have a small part to play in building confidence and trust between residents as citizens, local councillors, and the Council.<br/><br/>Also perhaps, that if people have the now widely held religious belief in the all-powerful market and worship Mammon, they should still pay attention to how the best-run, widely trusted businesses treat their customers.<br/><br/>In March 2009 I emailed Haringey's then Chief Executive Dr Ita O'Donovan suggesting:<br/><em>"let’s behave like a reputable business instead of someone flogging dodgy DVDs at a car-boot sale"</em>. <br/>She never responded to my suggestion. But eighty-four thousand people have since glanced at - or perhaps read - my email correspondence with Dr O'Donovan which I posted online. Plainly in some parts of the Council the advice is still relevant.</p> It's also worth referring to…tag:harringayonline.com,2018-12-30:844301:Comment:11419962018-12-30T22:27:08.336ZHughhttps://harringayonline.com/profile/hjuk
<p>It's also worth referring to the Traffic Management Order (see page 2 of this thread) which confirms that refunds <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>should</strong></span> be paid (that was the authority they cited to me mistakenly as the reason for refusing repayment) - only if that has been legally superseded can they refuse a refund. If they say it has been superseded, ask for a copy of whatever has replaced it.</p>
