Hi, Thanks for getting back, yes it is a free car park and it doesn't say fine on the ticket anywhere (just scoured it thoroughly) but "A CIVIL PENALTY CHARGE' or "THE CIVIL PENALTY CHARGE' all over the ticket. If ignoring is the best option rather than replying and arguing with them then I will take that route. I'm going to go down today and check for any signs and take a photo of it too. Also just read on the back that if I want to appeal it has to include a full payment or will be ignored!? I've never heard of having to pay the charge before appealing before, sounds like i'd never see my money again if I did that!

Hi, Yes sorry the company name is Corporate Services Ltd and then has (Hereford) in brackets like that after which is where I'm from. It has a registered number 5752123. This is on a sticker stuck on the back of the parking ticket over other information which I can't see, I don't want to rip the sticker off in case I damage the ticket. The sticker also has the payment amount on.

Hi, I'm a new young driver and have received a Civil Penalty Charge Notice for parking at a KFC car park when it was not open. I'm a bit worried about the parking ticket as there is no website or phone number on the ticket and when I googled the company name (that is in tiny small print on the ticket) it came up with a website under construction. The only contact details is a PO Box address to send the fine too. The fine is £60 if I pay in 14 days and £80 after that, a bit steep i think!! The only way to pay is cash or cheque too, i don't own a cheque book and really do not want to send cash through the post to a company i can't even find details of online! I think it very unprofessional that I can't ring up and pay by debit card. They say they saw my car on CCTV and have photographic evidence. The fine got put on my car 5 minutes after I parked there. The reason for the fine as stated on the ticket was they had checked the 'other' box and written not using venue at time of parking. It was 9am and KFC doesn't open until 11am for all they know i could have been waiting for it to open at that time! I have parked there at this time before and never received a fine before. I want to know my rights as a driver and if this is a reason to issue such a heavy penalty? I noticed there were 3 cars in the car park including mine and they all had tickets on. For a young woman this amount is petrol and food shopping for a week for me. I thought parking tickets were £20-£30 if paid in 14 days!? I haven't been down to check if there is a sign or what it says (I sure didn't notice one) and I just wanted to know what my next actions should be? It's been 5 days since I got the fine so I don't know whether to go to the police for help or write to this PO Box address? And if so what would I say? Any help would be very much appreciated I am new to things like this.
