Ticket for littering help

Posts: 8 Forumite
Hi everyone,
I received a ticket for dropping a cigarette and I am still within the 14 days to pay, I have emailed them to request an extension as I'm currently unemployed but due to start a new job and I am not entitled to any benefits at this moment in time, I have received no reply to the email and I have phoned their office about 30 times in the last 2 hours but it just keeps on going to mailbox, the 14 days will be up at the end of tomorrow, I really dont know what to do as I have tried to contact them so many times but cannot get to speak to anyone.
The officer did tell me to contact the office for an extension if I cant pay within 14 days but i cannot get through, does this mean I will now go to court even though I've done everything i can to try and contact them?
Thanks

This forum deals with private parking tickets, not littering tickets. Try the Consumer Rights forum on MSE.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.

Stop smoking for 14 days and use that money to pay the fine.
Probably won’t need the full 14 days the price of them nowadays0 -
No paying it. This was already answered the other day:
