Parking Charge Notice

Pleas can any one tell me if I need to respond or pay this parking charge notice issued by Horizon Parking
My car has been picked up by a camera entering McDonalds at Boston on 4th April at 09:40 and says I left at 14:10.(you have to access the drive thru via a car park) On this day I did go in at said time before dropping my child off at school at 10:00 and I admit I went back in the afternoon and got a drink when I picked her up at 14:00 . It appears not to have noticed me leaving in the morning and entering again in the afternoon.
Probably should not have gone twice in one day !
Any help is gratefully received
Thanks

    We need to see what the contract signs say.

    However, learn and learn well, Mcdonalds are in my opinion making it very clear they do not want your business by subjecting you to this harassment.
    I do Contracts, all day every day.
  • I have just phoned McDonalds it must be a common occurrence as they have told me to take the parking notice in and they will write to the company to have it removed :-)

    Yes, exactly as per the advice in the NEWBIES FAQS thread. Always complain to the landowner/retailer first.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
