Hi All,


I apologise if I'm asking old questions here but I have had a quick look through the forum....
We parked in a 'free 2 hour' car park today at a retail centre and left it to go to a hosp app.
We returned after an hour and shopped at the retail centre but we found a £90 fine attached to the window of our car from 'Total Parking Solutions LTD' because we 'were observed leaving the car park'
It does say on the signs not to leave the car park but we didn't notice that before we left.
Should I wait for a letter through the door from them or send a letter to them now?


Thanks in advance

Wait and then send the template from the NEWBIES sticky thread at the start of August when the letter arrives.

Thank you :-)

If you happen to be in the car park again before the NTK arrives, take a photo of the sign. Always useful in case you need to refer to it later.

Welcome to the game of "appeal your parking charge"

Exactly the same has happened to me today - it was in Kettering, maybe same car park? I was gone 20 minutes and then went in the shops on my return. Didn't seen anything on the signs about not leaving the site, only that you must be a customer, which I was. Appeal gone in, will see what happens next.

Can't believe how sneaky these people are getting, actually observing the car park to see if people leave it! !!!!!!!

Surely you have to leave the car park to go to the shops anyway!

Read the sticky at the top of the page, you'll win at POPLA as I did with mine today, as the PC cancelled the invoice as it wasn't worth their time or effort defending it presumably!

Yes it was in Kettering, Northfield Avenue Retail Park :-(

Got your NTK letter yet? Could be later in August if not - could even be later than that if they are not bothered about keeper liability (which then plays into your hands!).
