horizon parking sent me a fine for visiting sainsbury's twice in one day

Recieved a fine today for £70.00, they say I parked there for 5 hours 29 minutes. I did not - went to the shop once in my lunch break and then after work. Obviously, I won't be paying as I didn't do anything wrong but how do I appeal this?

    They didn't send you any kind of fine..!

    Please get yourself properly informed by having a good read of the Newbies Sticky - it also fully explains what you need to do next.

    Pay particular attention to "double-dipping".

    Typical case of double dipping from dodgy ANPR cameras

    Complain to the CEO about this scam and request cancellation.
    You simply cannot shop with companies who employ scammers in their car park
