PCN - Premier Park - Solihull

I'm a member at Fitness first Solihull and use this car park. I use the gym on a daily basis and enter the car registration into the system in reception.


On 5/8/18, I totally forgot to do this and realised halfway through my workout. I went back to reception to enter the details. Yesterday I received a PCN with the reason - 'whole period of parking not paid for' and a image of the car entering & leaving the car park.


my question is, what will happen if I totally ignore it? court action? bailiffs? I intend on speaking to the gym tomorrow but I doubt they'll be able to do much.

    Why would you ignore it, seeing as I bet the sign at the Gym does NOT say the VRN has to be input within a certain time, and you can get the Gym Manager to cancel it anyway?

    And PP are in the BPA = POPLA is available.

    And PP are not very litigious even if you lose at POPLA.

    Why would ANYONE on this forum ignore a scam that can be beaten by compaint?
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
