threatening debt collectors for parking fine

MissTigger

Hi,
This is my first ever debt at age 25, not quite sure how to deal with it at this stage.

i received a parking fine from Euro Car parks for overstaying in a free car park, which I didn't reply to or appeal in time. I intended on appealing as my reason for overstaying included me being a stressed out new mother who was breastfeeding her baby for AGES on-site at the car park. I was advised by CAB and BPA that my appeal would get me nowhere anyway.

Now I have got to the point where my fee is passed onto DRP debt collection agency and they are threatening to take me to court and give me a Court Judgement if I don't pay the reduced amount soon.

They are now asking for £110 even though it was a free car park and they are at no loss of earnings, what would you recommend that I do now? Shall I just do as they say and pay up?

thanks
