    Sorry, it was all correct on the notice and I had contravened so I paid but that one was a Parking Notice not a reminder. And its the Range who are not known for their "community spirit"

    The Range do cancel PEye ones.

    You aren't meant to pay parking charge notices.

    Sorry, I say cut off because that's when it goes up to 100 as per the notice.

    Ahh... that's when the 'mug's discount' expires.

    OK... a tough decision is needed...
    Do you accept their discount and pay them some money, or do you perhaps fight them and pay absolutely nothing to anyone?

    It's a tough call, and it's your call.

    As it says in the opening post of the NEWBIES thread...

    OK, but this is not something im very familiar  with so not sure what I can and can't do, sorry. I cannot find the Newbies thread as this is not a familiar forum for me. What actually  happens if I ignore it, I know its my call but I would like to have some idea of what would happen before I make that choice?

    You seem to have missed my signature which tells everyone how to click to the NEWBIES thread.
