Spoke to SABA/ZZPS before finding this forum

Hi there,
Total newbie here. I received a Debt Collection Notic from ZZPS for failure to park at Berkhamsted station SABA car park, with a 170 pound fine (100 plus 70 charge), which was a shock as I hadn;t received an initial notice. I wasn't aware of this forum, and hadn't read the Newbies page, so I called them up to complain. Unsurprisingly they said I had to pay. I have just read the enwbies page and am regretting calling them. I don't remember if I said I was the driver, but I did say I would have been happy to pay the inital fine, which I now know I ought not have done.
Have I shot myself in the foot, or should I continue to ingnore the letter until just before the 6 months (or have i misread the newbies page)?
I'm a total noob at this and ovelry rules following, so find it difficult not to pay up!
Thanks!

Apologies for the questions that I'm sure are aalready answred, I'm stressed by this. I probably ought to have bought a ticket, it;s not like I bought the wrong ticket or similar. I apparently simply forgot to use the SABA parking app. There are ANPR camera at the sation. The probelm is that I did not recvieve the first notice. Shoud I still resist paying?

Yes definitely, never pay a debt collector. Are SABA showing this as a Penalty charge, or a Parking charge - will show on their first letter to you.Bass_Base_ said:Apologies for the questions that I'm sure are aalready answred, I'm stressed by this.
