LDK parking fine

I parked at Durham hospital and appt ran over time. Got back to my car 6 minutes late and had a parking fine. Pay £60 within 14 days or £90 thereafter.
After reading lots on the Internet about this company and seeing as this fine is totally unjustified with only being 6 minutes late, should I appeal to this or totally ignore it? Appreciate any comments or advice given. Thanks.

    Ignore, and please stop calling it a FINE!. It's nothing of the sort. It's just an invoice.
    What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?

    Its not a fine so you are fine to ignore
    For everthing else there's mastercard.
    For clampers there's Barclaycard.

    Even if you were 60 minutes late back it would be totally unjustified and unjustifiable. It amounts to a penalty which this ppc has not the statutory authority to give or enforce. Its as simple as that. So ignore it as you would some piece of litter the wind blew your way, you then picked up and threw in a bin.
