PCN Ticket from Britannia McDonalds Car Park Quayside Southampton

Hi
Don't know if anyone will read this but unfortunately I have picked up one of these parking tickets yesterday after parking outside McDonalds in the West Quay Car Park in Southampton. Apparently it's a private car park (administered by Britannia Parking) but signs indicating this are quite frankly pathetic and not at all obvious and I've never had to pay to park at a McDonalds ever!!
I see in the earlier threads it says to ignore the ticket but doesn't make it clear whether it's for a private car or a company car. It's just that I was driving a company car - does it make any difference and if so why?
Writing in Hope!!
Dave
Getting conflicting advice now!!
I was issued with a PCN ticket placed on my windscreen by a company called Britannia.
Some are saying appeal using a template letter requesting a POPLA code as it is a company car.
Some are saying just ignore it and eventually they'll just drop it.
Thanks for all help so far
Kind Regards
Dave
