Hello all
I found this helpful website and wondered if someone could advise me. I have just received a private parking charge notice for £60 for parking on private land for 13 minutes.
This is correct and I whilst I was not aware it was a private car park or penalties were involved, but I did see it was a pay and display. I was attending a conference and got lost. I don't know Leicester and so I did park up there for 13 minutes whilst phoning someone for directions. There is no excuse for not buying a ticket. I was very stressed due to driving round Leicester lost in peak traffic and pulled over to a safe place to calm down and find out where I was.
Do I just pay the £60 and put this down to experience? Not sure I really can argue against it.
Thanks
