Parkming Ticket Advice

Got a parking ticket charge through the post with a charge in it that was as per a lot of advice ignored and have now had one from debt recovery plus with the pay it and it will go away or call them to discuss it
I am looking for info as there is that much on here with stuff to do and stuff not to and would rather get the info relevant to me rather than guess
Parking wise I did get a ticket for the car park but it was half an hour after I parked there (Train station) as the machine wouldn't take my money and I had kids in tow and after getting to a bank then getting change etc the ticket was purchased and I left the car park with more or less the same amount on the ticket that I had overstayed by
If this helps then I am in Scotland and the car park was run by smart parking
Thanks in advance

Ignore them completely because it is Scotland (in England we'd say appeal as POPLA is offered and we can get these cancelled easily against this firm). In Scotland it is best to stay silent because the last thing you want is to accidentally tell them who was driving.
Seeing as, in Scotland, only drivers can be possibly 'liable' and Smart do not know who that was, not from the ANPR camera. It is not CCTv, shows no names/faces!PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
