    It's not a fine - it's an invoice.

    The car park in question looks like it's 2 hours free, but I guess it may be for customers only.

    Have you appealed?
    Did you get an original windscreen ticket?
    Have you had any previous communications?

    It looks like an ANPR car park - could it be that you visited twice in the same day?

    If you stayed less than 2 hours it seems they're relying on "unauthorised parking", which is meaningless without times and is overridden by the prominent 2 hours clause anyway.

    Ignore DCBL and the DCB Legal letters that will follow, but look out for a claim form from the county court and then come back here for help.

    DCB Legal/Highview will discontinue anyway, but I don't see how those shoddy signs are clear enough anyway. 

    Make sure your vehicle V5 document is up to date with your correct address.
