Are you sure this is a council and not a private car-park. It's not in Walsall is it? That used to be council run, but is now privately owned.What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?0 -
it says privately operated car park at the moor centre brierley hill, has a pcn no. ??0

It's definitely a private car-park and nothing to do with the council. So can just ignore Excel and do not contact them.What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?0

thanks for that, i was in the process of getting change for the machine but left after apparently 14 mins cause cash point was broken !! can do without any hassle !!0

There won't be any hassle. Just relax.What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?0

And finally, how about seeing how common your thread is, did you know the entire board is full of people like you ignoring this scam? All these threads on this next link below are about private tickets (apart from the odd Council case) and every single person is ignoring a series of letters, which isn't too hard to do. It's just like deleting a series of phishing emails. Read some other threads here:

Have a read of threads, watch the Watchdog clip. You get that it's all a scam now I hope? Spread the word, make sure your friends and family are NEVER taken in by such a con. You only have to ignore a series of letters, that's all.
PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
