private parking ticket

I received a parking ticket from a private company - PEA Parking

http://www.paymypcn.net/ - their website

wondering what to do ? it was at 8pm and the car park was EMPTY ! except maybe 2 or 3 cars. I didn't see a sign clearly saying it was a 24hr carp park, so i didn't even pay for a ticket. I was there about an hour.

they want me to pay 50 pounds or 100 pounds if i dont pay within a few days.

Start by reading the guide that coupon mad wrote for NEWBIES at the head of this forum in the sticky pinned threads.

A lot of effort went into that to help initial queries like yours.

Then come back if you need further help.

Welcome to the parking forum but it seems you haven't read it yet! A few months back, we got soooo busy with new threads, all the same, that to ensure no-one missed out on advice I spent hours writing a sticky (info) thread for the top of the forum, giving it capital letters saying:

NEWBIES!! PRIVATE PARKING TICKET? EVEN AN OLD ONE? ***READ THIS FIRST*** Thankyou!

and making sure it covers in simple terms what all the acronyms mean, how to appeal with a DOZEN linked examples...how to win at POPLA stage...what to do if you miss the appeal deadline & get to debt collector letters stage...and yet every day, new posters here don't read it.

But please don't disappear, we do want you to win at POPLA so please post any questions...AFTER reading the stickies (info threads 'stuck' on the board at the top, sorry if stating the obvious).

No it's not, that's their payment site (which you won't be using!). This is their website:

http://www.peaparking.eu/ (not that it's worth reading at all!).

Course they do - that's how their scam works, an 'urgent' invoice with a 'discount offer'(!!), impersonating a parking ticket. But if this was a windscreen ticket, you will learn from the newbies thread to do nothing yet (unless yours is a company or hire car). Please do read the NEWBIES thread in full even if you need to check it again a couple of times while awaiting the postal Notice to Keeper.
