Blackpool Council Reversed Parking P&D Fee

I went for a day out in Blackpool a week past Saturday, parked in central car park and paid for a pay&display ticket at the machine with contactless payment. No problems all good. However this morning I get a notification from my bank saying that Blackpool Council have reversed the payment for the pay&display ticket. Why would they do this? Am I due a fine in the post or something? I parked correctly in a bay and displayed the p&d ticket and there was no penalty charge notice on my car when I returned. Even then they still wouldn't know who I am as I didn't get asked for a reg number at the machine, it was just a bog standard pay&display ticket.

    I don't have the number plus it's Sunday. I live 200 miles away from Blackpool. Blackpool is not my council.

    Tomorrow is Monday.

    I understand that nowadays telephone conversations can be had over 200 miles - amazingly, one can even phone Australia. Whatever next?

    Why not take advantage of this?...

    Tomorrow is Monday, when Blackpool Council offices are likely to be open.

    Perhaps your bank can explain why the charge was reversed.
