ParkingEye tickets - told I am allowed to park in the spot by staff.

Posts: 1 Newbie
I have been visiting family in hospital, I asked a nurse about the time limited parking spots near the entrance I was told I am okay to park here and if I receive a ticket I don’t need to pay. I have parked here multiple times believing it is okay as I never seen a ticket on my car. I have since received a ticket in the mail from Parkingeye and expect to receive more.
Do I need to pay this considering I was told by staff I can park here and I won’t have to pay?

No, complain to PALS to step in and cancel the charge, but don't park there again.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Sorry but a nurse is unlikely to give authoritative advice on parking.2 -

A representative of the site staff...1 -
Interesting situation. If it was the receptionist you'd assume more authority than a nurse strangely.
And what if it had been a member of the Estates staff?
They're all employees of the landowner.
All I'm saying is, how do know if it was a nurse? :-)1
