APCOA parking charge help needed

Hello I need some help as I am stressed out.
I travel to stoke mandeville station 5 days a week but don’t have a weekly ticket, I buy daily.
I have been issued with a penalty saying I went in 1 day and left the other, despite the fact I’ve left and come back!
I also have my ticket from the first day and on the second annoyingly I only have the ticket issued from the machine saying I purchased my train ticket and car park. Annoyingly I don’t have the acrual ticket from the second day! I also have proof to show I was elsewhere that day before heading back to the station.
How can the car park system be so wrong? I always pay and this has upset me. I can’t afford their fine and shouldn’t have to pay. Anyone else had issues who use car parks regularly?

    Welcome,

    Did you miss reading NEWBIES PLEASE READ THESE FAQS FIRST (2 clicks back, see my signature)?

    Don't stress about a hilariously easy to beat APCOA PCN, always beatable at POPLA!

    :D
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    bylaws apply at a train station

    use the blue text template and appeal as keeper, no blabbing about who was driving

    when you get your popla code, find and read recent APCOA RAILWAY STATION popla appeal threads and plagiarise your popla appeal by using the ones you see

    a KEEPER isnt liable for these penalty notices and APCO have no authority to issue them

    if you dont understand why, read the RAILWAY STATION threads like INDIGO etc, until you understand the sc@m

    its blabbing about who is the driver or who is the owner that means a winner loses, so no blabbing

    this isnt about what happened on the day

    its about the laws , rules and technicalities , and railway stations are not the same as normal private car parks but APCO havent a clue as to the reasons why
