Hi guys,

I'm kind of new here and need some advice here's my story.

So the other day me and as friend decide to go to the cinema in Leigh which is located in the loom leisure park Leigh. So I go pick him up and get to the park at around 4pm we go in buy our tickets but the film doesn't start for 45mins so we decide to have a walk through tescos and get a coffee in their cafe.

We then go to watch our film and afterwards decide itsd early so why not watch another so we buy tickets for a second film which starts at 8 so we go next door yo Frankie and Benny's we eat up and go watch our second film we leave at about 11pm after enjoying our day.

So today I get a nice letter from civil enforcement which states I broke the contract with regards to exceeding parking times and if I pay their charge within 14days its £75 if not its £150 I have 28 days to pay or further action will be taken.

Now I have been back and a admittedly the signs says free parking for 4hours but surly if I use the facilities there I shouldn't be charged.

Can someone help me what should I do should I just pay it or should I do something else???
