    sometimes Umkomaas posts the breakdown of the charges for a loss , I suggest you read his posts (but there are a lot of them)
    Save you searching @OP.

    £100 - original parking charge
    £25 - court filing fee
    £50 - solicitor costs for preparing case papers (maximum, capped)
    £25 - hearing fee, if it gets that far
    £7 or £8 interest.

    So not much more than £200 - IF YOU LOSE!

    Anything else they try to add will be spurious and must be challenged with the Judge.

    IF YOU WIN - none of the above will be payable by you. But you could claim:

    £95 capped maximum for loss of earnings/annual leave for half a day (take pay slips for proof)
    Travel costs - public transport or mileage x 45p per mile
    Parking costs.

    If the PPC has been wholly unreasonable in dealing with the court, then costs awarded against them could be considerably more, but the bar is set very high. We would advise nearer the time if we think this is worth you pursuing.

    That’s about it. No one will come out of this much richer or much poorer. :)
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

    And this is not usually awarded, and can be argued against:
    £50 - solicitor costs for preparing case papers (maximum, capped)
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    LGCP Ltd operate a single car park next to, but not within the grounds of, the QMC hospital in Nottingham. The car park is known as Leen Gate Car Park. I do not believe they own the land but they pay the business rates and so a likely the lawful occupants.

    I took some photos for another thread at the same car park which might be useful if they decide to try a claim.
