    Is this like a drive through penalty?

    Whilst on holiday in Perranporth very recently, I pulled off the road into what I immediately realised was a "Private" car park. Upon realising this, and deeming it not safe to reverse back out on to the road, due to pedestrians and traffic, I used the car park to turn around and pull back out onto the main road.

    The private car parking company Premier Park have sent me "PCN" for alleged contravention of "Unauthorised Entry / Parking".

    What's the best way to deal with this?



    Despite your thread title you were not fined and as others have said, this is easily dealt with just by ignoring the fake PCN and the other letters that will follow.

    No need to worry....just play snap with the letters against the second-to-top thread here 'PPC letters/threats'. See my signature which tells you where to click in the breadcrumb link at the top of the page, to get back to the forum thread list. Read the one currently second to top and you will see what letters are in store for you!

    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
