ParkingEye Appeal

Hi, first time poster - please go easy!

I recently parked at Worcester Country Cricket Club car park with is also the car park for the Premier Inn Hotel where I was staying over night.

I noticed the signage for parking fees and on exiting the hotel in the morning I paid £7.50.

The signage says £3.50 for overnight parking which finishes at 8am.

I paid my £7.50 at 8:07am and was photographed leaving the car park at 8:11am (I had to walk to the car, put my stuff in the boot, set my satNav to where I was going etc).

I sent a picture of the ticket within my appeal.

Received an email this morning to say that my appeal was unsuccessful as I hadn't paid the correct amount. I realise I was a tiny bit over 8am but I paid additional to "cover" it.

Any help on what I should do next? Should I just pay that £60 (discounted rate) due to being slightly over the time?

    And show us the back. It's important, unless you already blew that potential winning point by ticking 'driver'…?

    Of course you won't be paying this! Not even if you lose at POPLA, which isn't binding on you and nor is it independent.

    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
