Lidl Car Park fine...

Sticky: **NEWBIES!! PRIVATE PARKING TICKET? OLD OR NEW? **READ THESE FAQS FIRST!** Thankyou!
...and maybe the poster who thought it was a 'penalty charge' with no way out, will learn something too if they follow your thread.To clear up this unhelpful arguing of where I shopped, I parked in Lidl to shop at lidl. I wasn't intending to stay there as had other errands to run in town which were within walking distance so as I had no change I kept the car in the car park. There were lots of other spaces available for other shoppers. I don't know why you feel the need to argue the point. I understand that I can appeal any invoice that may come through the door and I will be doing. £90 is not a justifiable amount for a car park that doesn't even have a ticket machine. They've lost nothing.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

What are the chances of winning an appeal? I'd rather pay £45 than £90 if there's a chance I'm going to end up losing.0

Wow, I've just read someone's letter and its all so complex. It really isn't as simple as "hey you guys, this fine is a joke and you're not legally allowed to take it so I won't be paying, goodbye" you have to list all the legal spiel. Is it worth it for £45? When u may lose them end up paying £900

OMG you really haven't grasped it yet have you? You simply send the template first appeal followed by the template second appeal then you win. 100% win rate for 18 months on here.

OK, I'll give it a go. All the legal jargon just looks off putting, didn't realise you just copied and pasted.0

It's as easy as that for the first stage appeal and for the second one you may need to a little replacing here and there to get right PPC in, in this case Athena if you really need to. Probably dozens of good Athena appeals on forum though with a search.Newbie thread: go to the top of this page and find these words: Main site > MoneySavingExpert.com Forums > Household & Travel > Motoring > Parking Tickets, Fines & Parking.

I'm just worried if I don't win. I understand my main argument is for the over priced charges when there was no geopl but what if they say oh but there were signs.0

You really do need to do a lot more reading of the NEWBIES sticky which will save you asking questions that are already covered.
