PCN Parking Eye Morrisons Reigate

omzig

Received a PCN yesterday for the above car park. Apparently we were 35mins over the 2hr limit and receive an £85 fine (reduced to £50 if paid within 28 days of issue - although a week of that has gone because it only came through the post yesterday).

What I would like to know is what I admit in the letter?

- I didn't realise it was 2hrs. It's not my regular Morrisons, my local store has a 3hr time limit.

- The letter is asking for proof of purchase from Morrisons. I paid cash (for lunch in the cafe and for a few bits of shopping) and I don't tend to keep the receipts for food!

- The store is situated next to a park, which I took my toddler to after shopping. Unfortunately my lo refused to leave the park and it took a while to get her out!

It seems a bit excessive for a 35 min overstay :mad:

I can assure you its not a "fine" , it wont say that word anywhere on the paperwork either , its an invoice

read and follow the NEWBIES sticky thread ( why have you not read it yet ?) , appeal using the template letter , add any redacted receipts or bank statements that prove patronage of the shop

complain to Morrissons too, if necessary, their head office (ceo is David Potts) , add any redacted receipts or bank statements that prove patronage of the shop (or of the same retailer, anywhere in the country)

Not a fine, it's an inviatation to pay! Which i wouldn't. I would only ever pay a PCN if from a council operative, not one of these silly little firms.
