Unfair parking fine - help!
Comments
-
I received a letter from APCOA stating that I had spent 37 minutes in a 10 minute zone. This was untrue as I had entered the zone and immediately left (paying £1 at the barrier) to go to the midterm car park and returned to the zone when my friend was ready to be picked up. I then paid a second £1 and left. Neither time did I over stay. They obviously registered my first entry and second exit without acknowledging that I left in between these two times! When I received the letter, I responded explaining the situation, wrongly assuming that would be the end of the matter as they would be able to see the error on the cameras!
They then wrote a second letter still demanding payment as they could not find evidence of my outlined situation!!!
What should I do now? Write another letter? Ignore it? I have the 14 days to pay the reduced fine, but if I do that, it is like admitting I have done something wrong!!!
All help appreciated - thanks!
Ignore them and all there contact.
They extort money from people who least expect it!0
