In June I received a parking ticket for been parked in a free car park. However the maximum time you can park is 2hrs and I went over by 20mins as it was torrential rain and I waiting for the rain to ease off from a cafe across the road.
Any as it wasn't a council car Parking fine , I did a bit of research and read advise on the list forum and other sites. He advise was not to pay it as it was a free car park . So I have done this had 2 reminders but Inhave just ignored. Anyway today I have received a letter from bw legal advising me that the fine is now £100 for the pcn plus £54 for the clients legal cost. It states I need to pay in full within 16 days from the date of this letter 14th September they will seek their clients instructions to commence legal proceedings against me in the form of a county court claim for in the county court. Can they do this ? I was told to keep ignoring the letters but this has me worried
