Night time parking fine

drcjkc

Hi - i parked in Pease Cottage (M23) service station at 02:45 and left at 06:15 (fell asleep unfortunately), not realising there was parking fines to think about - I've got a Charge Notice from CP Plus - as it was very dark and misty nothing was obvious regarding signs - couldn't see anything clearly at all - because it was very early morning, very dark and it was a little misty would i have any reasons here for an appeal on this charge?
Another thing, i have only just got back from the EU and find i have today only (24th Oct) to pay a reduced rate
Many thanks
David

EDIT YOUR POST - *the driver* parked at Pease Cottage service station. No I, He, She

You do realise that the "reduced rate" is just a scam to get you to mess your self, pay up, and shut up, with the least fuss don't you?


You have been invoiced for contravening their T&C's you have not been fined.


No one on here would pay CP Plus why are your even considering it?


You have grounds for appeal, and these muppets rarely enter a court anyway.


But you need to study the newbies start here thread to get a handle on this.



Your post needs altering to remove some identifying markers, including defined times, and hints to the driver's identity.

Well, sorry to be blunt but you need to practice your surfing and researching if you are going to fight this.


Quite simply; this morning as of most mornings, it's the third thread down stuck to the top of page one of this forum!;)
