Hi,
Last week i got a letter "PCN" from excel parking for £60. It was Saturday night, i was going nando's in peel centre in stockport and it was dark so i just didnt see the pay and display. If i would have i would of payed what ever it was. The letter has 2 pictures on it, one of my car entering and one leaving.
Anyway im reluctant to give them £60 of my money and ive had a few people advise just to ignore it, receive the letters but dont do anything! What does everyone think?

Do Exel now have such good computer systems that they can integrate p&d with anpr and have a picture of a car arriving and leaving which proves it did not pay?I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.0

My exact thought, Mr PiperOne important thing to remember is that when you get to the end of this sentence, you'll realise it's just my sig.0

Perhaps you need to input the plate number into the machine ??When posting a parking issue on MSE do not reveal any information that may enable PPCs to identify you. They DO monitor the forum.
We don't need the following to help you.
Name, Address, PCN Number, Exact Date Of Incident, Date On Invoice, Reg Number, Vehicle Picture, The Time You Entered & Left Car Park, Or The Amount of Time You Overstayed.

Possible but if you paid but forgot to put number in how does a camera shot prove you did not pay? Anyway it does not change the OP's options of ignore or go to popla.I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.0

Okay i don't usually like to ignore fines and things like that but it seems that's probably best i reckon. I hope it doesn't come back to bite me!!0

If you think this is a "fine", you are going have a very hard life of getting scammed.Be happy...;)0

Jay, Spacey is just making the point that this isnt a fine, its just designed to look like one!!0
