MET Mcdonalds parking fine - left premises but friend ordered something

£100 fine, reduced to £60

tried to speak to manager but because i actually did leave premises he cant overturn. 

On what grounds can i appeal? I must’ve misread the signage but if my mate has the bank statement of what he ordered does that help?

    There is no fine it's an invoice from private parking company trying a scam, they do this all the time at McDonald's.
    You certainly do not say you left site, they are unlikely to have any evidence, they even pretend to have knocked on the doors of the toilets, it's laughable!
    Is there a plan of "the site" is there a line telling not to cross, did they send a video of the event or photos?
    You should have told the manager you were bona fide customers being harassed by their profit hungry scamming parking company and to get it cancelled.
