    Completely wrong advice and what a shame to just say 'pay up' and then explain wrongly about the 14 day period. If you appeal in the first 14 days then the discount period is almost always RE-OFFERED (bargain, not!!) when they reject. And the appeal procedure - if wanting to win - is a long game not a 14 day rush.
    Point taken and accepted. I am by no means familiar with how the rules of parking tickets work, but that how I thought it might have worked.

    My apologies both to yourself, the OP and anybody else.

    If it says PENALTY CHARGE NOTICE -Appeal.

    If it says PARKING CHARGE NOTICE -Ignore,they will send further demands, just ignore these too.

    The advise depends on if it's a Private or Council parking ticket

    The giveaway is normally in whoever has issued the ticket, where to send payment & appeals (if it gives a PO Box in some random part of the country chances are it's private).

    I would put 10p on it being a private car-park for "permit" holders only, which will be safe to ignore as the most the landowner can sue the driver for is the damages suffered by trespassing onto his/her land, in most cases is a big fat Zero.
