Just double checking - I have read through Newbies guides etc

I will keep it brief, I just need somebody to confirm I can appeal.  I did read through all information but I may be in the wrong.

I recieved a Parking notice from Alliance for Trsistram carpark in cornwall.  We have been going for years (10+) using same carpark, only year we did not go was last year. Always been a pay when you leave car park.

This year it's now a pay and display, we saw no immediate signage, although I did look after and there is very small signage on entry that can easily be missed. 

Tried to pay on exit, got confused when it kept saying £2.00, it should of been a lot more as we stayed over 6 hours.  Went to the other machine and it said the same thing.  Paid the £2 (still have receipt) then when we walked by on another day read very small print on signs and saw that it had changed to pay and display.  Tried to pay by Justpark app but you can't back date.

So in theory they are within their rights to fine me, should the onis be on me to check signs? Should I just pay or shall I send the first template letter regarding the Keeper and not paying? 

I am angry as they have kept everything in tiny print and no obviously big signs saying pay and display when it's been a pay on leave for years.

No, the onus is on them to make their signage and any restrictions clear.

They can't fine you, only invite you to pay a sum dependent on the contract they alleged you entered into.

If everything was crystal clear they wouldn't be able to charge anyone and would go out of business. Your description sounds like it was anything but.

Thanks Carl,

I will send them the standard first keeper letter that is recommended and see what happens...

Can you get dated photos of the signs?  You'll need them should this go further.
