    As it should be.  There was no 'fine' but why did they even get your DVLA data at all?  They had the images to show it was a double dip.

    What a scam PCN this appears to be.

    See you back here in August for the final push to het the new law over the line for 2024!
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    As you predicted Coupon-mad I got the solicitors letter (on behalf of apcoa etc) saying i need to pay £145.
    This was for a Jan 26th parking fine, just ignoring at this point of course. 

    Unfortunately I had two braindead visits when i COMPLETELY forgot to pay on my app... since this original ticket in Jan i received 2 more! (but they are legit just my fault)....

    I probably shouldn't no... should probably post the standard blue text you have in the forum to start the process and waste their time. Feels only slightly worse as I was totally at fault because I just forgot!

    The main point is £100 is a rip-off and only numpties would pay that.

    No one on here pays APCOA unless they have been picked off the gullible tree as low-hanging fruit!

    If a driver forgot to pay then the signage to instruct them to pay must have been inadequate.

    I don't have a sister. :D

    its the classic downside of ANPR cameras, they encourage you to wait until youve left to ensure you pay the most efficient amount.... knowing you are going to forget 50% of the time  :'(
