2 car parks!

I parked and paid by phone app last Friday. Yesterday received a parking charge with photos. 
Turns out this area is 2 car parks and I paid for the wrong one. I have proof that I paid. There is a sign stating that it’s no longer an “Iceland” car park. I just assumed it was all one car park. 
£100 or £60 if paid soon. 
HEEEELLLLPPPPP!!!

    Please read the NEWBIES FAQ Announcement, first post, which will get you started. 

    Which parking firm?

    This is likely to depend on the clarity of the signage, have you complained to your MP?

    A BPA AOS operator so potential to take to POPLA. Follow the NEWBIES FAQ Announcement, first post instructions for landowner complaint and initial appeal within the POC 28-day window - then we can take it from there.
