received a parking fine demand for "exceeded maximum stay period"
entry time of 7.52am and exit time of 8.15am
parking sign says
"10 minutes maximum stay" between 8pm to 8am
"2 hours maximum stay" between 8am to 8pm
assuming the parking fine company will not cancel this fine then can I dispute the fine & win if I need to go to court ? (on the basis I only parked for 8 minutes between 8pm to 8am )
entry time of 7.52am and exit time of 8.15am

Go to whatever business you were visiting and ask them to cancel it for you.
It's unlikely that it is a fine but rather an invoice for parking and yes you can dispute it in court and win.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Debt Free Wannabe, Old Style Money Saving and Pensions boards.

The car park is a retail area rather than a council car park
I will try visting a couple of the stores to see if they are willing to help (B&M & Halfords) - they both open at 8am so hopefully they will understand its not a fair demand as I only arrived 8 minutes before they open - I dont have a receipt I can show them for any purchase but hopefully that wont matter0 -
Remember that it will be the vehicle keeper who complaints without naming the driver. The keeper should complain to their MP as well.I married my cousin. I had to...I don't have a sister.All my screwdrivers are cordless."You're Safety Is My Primary Concern Dear" - Laks1
