Euro Car Parks

In search of help, please.
The company I work for have just recieved a final notification letter from Euro Car Parks, claiming a sum of £85.
It says that we parked in a Miller and Carter car park and the discounted amount no longer applies. We have NOT received any previous correspondences.
The notice states that my car was observed at 10.56am., so the restaurant wouldn't be open. We fully intend to fight this charge as the notice states the car was there for only 15mins and that a parking charge of £85 is far too excessive.
Has anyone experienced anything similar with this company and can anyone offer advice on how they fought this rip-off?
Thanks all.

    even if I was there for 15mins that a parking charge of £85 is far too excessive.

    Unfortunately, the Supreme court has ruled that it is not, read Beavis v Parking Eye.

    Several thousand a year, some of them on here.

    Have you read the stickies/FAQs they tell you in detail how to confound the scammers.

    You can ignore ECP if they say the appeal is too late.

    Throughout here you advised never to reveal who was driving

    You need to edit your post to remove details of who was driving
