I was only nipping in to grab it quickly but ended up be half a hour and now Ive been invoiced a parking charge of £70 what shall I do because I see it as unfair.

    Have a look on the Motoring forum main page ... you'll find a link to the Parking forum there. The NEWBIES thread is clearly identified when you get there (as long as you open your eyes). ;)

    DO NOT post your question in the NEWBIES thread!
  • Can you link me to it I’m struggling using this site ngl 😂

    Ypu mean you're struggling to find the text Parking Tickets, Fines & Parking on the main Motoring forum page? (You know - the page where you actually created this thread).

    Well at least we can guess how they ended up with a parking ticket.

    You parked without paying, and are now facing the consequences.. Why do you think that is unfair?

    Now your thread is in the correct forum you need to read up on this to get an understanding of the game you are now caught up in


    Study the Newbies FAQ thread near the top of the forum


    #1 there advises on the 2 pronged process at this stage


    1) Send the template appeal there at the appropriate time


    2) Complain to the surgery to get this cancelled, (assuming it was their car park)
