I have received a CCJ on my credit score

I called up and the lady said if I pay £185.00 and then request to have it removed that is the only way to proceed

Who did you call?

Dont even think about your MP yet. You have a far more pressing timeline.
But it really isn't difficult to find out. Google. 
You must. must. MUST go through the newbies thread. You must read up about set asides. You must work out a suitable defence. 

send the link to the NEWBIES  section, the Irony a NEWBIE that can not find the NEWBIES FORUM. maybe there is something in that.

These people do not give fair chances.  Get into your head they ruin peoples lives.

I called up the number to pay it at the CCBC with the reference 08709195577. she just wanted me to pay and then said you can't be sure they will remove it off your record after, sounds like a scam, if they are going to destroy my credit they can sing for the money.

I would remove that reference number if I were you, especially if it is a genuine one.  You never know what malicious people get up to.  Secondly, I believe you should pay the claimant and get a receipt, do you actually have the judgment letter because that would tell you who and how to pay - get a receipt. Then you send the receipt to the court.

its the phone number I called, you think I should pay the claimant? before challenging that I never got the fine in the first place?

That looks like a prohibited premium rate 'phone number. It's not the sort of number a government establishment would use.

You need to find out which court gave the judgement and possibly contact them. Remember that this is a parking forum not a legal help forum.

Sheila at https://bailiffadviceonline.co.uk/ might be able to help. She posts here as Herbie21 and has a good reputation on MSE.
The Legal Beagles website might be another place you could find help.

It's one of CEL's numbers.
