Parking Charge and PCN

Hello all, this may sound like a stupid question but please humour me.

I've paid for a parking ticket with Indigo which is done online. On the receipt and on the T&Cs it states that I'm allowed to park from 00:00hrs to 23:59hrs on the same day. Now if I parked at 7am but didn't buy my ticket until 9am and got a PCN inbetween that time, should I be charged? If yes, then shouldn't they refund me the money that I paid for the ticket, as that is their acceptance of a contract? Any advice?


Thanks!

    Is this a railway station car park?

    Have you read the NEWBIES FAQ sticky thread yet?
  • Yes, it's a railway car park and I've just read through the specific part about Indigo. I'm assuming the information is still up to date and relevant there?

    Yes, I edited it last night... look at the date edited under the post.

    Also one of the first Q&A there says ''is this thread still up to date?'' and the answer is YES.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
