    UPDATE: After contacting the leisure centre, I received a call from the manager the next day. He requested I send the copy of the fine to him. He has stated that this should never have been sent as already mentioned here, the 10 minute grace period should have been added.

    PE have now cancelled the fine, obviously with no apology, but good news anyway.

    Leisure centre can not be faulted as they made the effort to help.

    Thanks to all on this forum who assisted. Thankfully I have not been required to take any further action.

    Well Done!

    You could always sue PE for obtaining your data without reasonable cause and causing you distress (DPA breach). If so, start with an online simple complaint to the ICO and see what response you get.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Have you got it in writing, they have been known to renege.
    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.
