When is a 10-minutes parking limit not a 10-minute limit? When it’s in the Hill House car park, Kendal Road, Totland.

https://iwobserver.co.uk/clocked-and-shocked-at-hill-house-car-park/

David Morey parked on the property of Southern Housing between 9.38pm and 9.48pm. He was shocked to receive a letter issuing him with a £100 pcn as there's a 10-minute limit for unregistered vehicles before CPM issue a pcn.

The Isle of Wight Observer asked if 9.38pm to 9.48pm counted as 10 or 11 minutes, but Southern Housing declined to elaborate.

10 minutes, 1 second and beyond is more than 10 minutes.

But the grace period is a minimum and the MHCLG will restore consideration periods.

You'll see. All in good time.

Why does the industry think this treatment of consumers is socially acceptable? I wouldn't be able to do what these aggressive greedy thugs do to people.

But has become acceptable by default.
....... just as the maximum admin charge of £20 for a minor keying error (really a software designed error) has become the default charge.
A well briefed MP is needed to argue the consumers case, hopefully one who's been stung by the process. 
How many more days left to influence the consultation?

09.38.55 to 09.48.05 would be 9 mins 10 seconds, so how do you know it was over 10 minutes from the data available - or are you just so prejudiced in your thinking you can't contemplate aPPC being wrong? And as regulars have seen so many times before, clocks on entry and exit cameras can be very misaligned.
