Parking Charge Notice Advice

Options
Hi,

I have received a PCN for £85 from euro car parks. I overstayed the car park by 210 minutes and saw the signs but I didn't think anything of it as there are similar signs at my local supermarket and I've never had any issues there. Just looking for some advice as I've read on other threads to ignore it but I don't want it to effect me negatively in regards to the dvla. I used the particular car park 3 times and I'm worried that i'll be fined for all 3 times which will amount to a lot of money!

  • As I said there's the same sign's in my local supermarket but I've never had any issues so I presumed it would be the same as it was also a supermarket

    Ignoring has not been generally advised since 2012. Please read some current threads and the Newbies Sticky to inform yourself properly.

    No, do not ignore it that's the worst thing you can do
    Tis better to be thought a fool and remain silent
    than to open ones mouth and remove all doubt

    Have a look like pogofish suggests in the Newbies Sticky section there is lots of very good advice to help you.
