EPM Shoreham Airport Question

Options
My friend parked at Shoreham Airport a few days ago and didn't notice that it has now changed to a pay and display system. When he returned to his car he found a ticket from Ethical Parking on the windscreen stating it was a 'Contractual Breach Charge'.
As this was a pay and display carpark and not a free one, is he in the same position i.e. just throw the ticket away?

    Throw it away???!

    We have NEVER SAID THAT, not even when we used to say 'ignore it'!

    Also the current advice is to appeal and win at POPLA.

    I have no time now, but just read every other thread on page one and you will see your 'ignore' idea is in the past. Challenge like on the other threads, not saying who was driving.

    I am local to Shoreham as I am in West Sussex too, but cannot help further right now so read other threads and send a challenge like these:

    Post again when your friend gets a 'POPLA code' (formal appeal stage where he can win with our help) and tell him to act quickly, as it is timebound.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
