Hi there!
I've just been to a Sainburys Car Park run by Euro Car parks. I overstayed by 1 hour. They have some barriers there so when I went to exit, I was told I would need to pay £50!!
I spoke to the attendant and told him, I don't have £50, and I would be happy to pay the £3.50 they have in their car park for all visitors on the 1st floor. He told me that wouldn't be possible and I would get a ticket, and he took my registration number.
I then said I would not be willing to pay £50, and he said he could do me a "special" offer and just take £5.00. I said no, I would only be willing to pay £3.50 and I then spoke to their customer services explaining that I didn't know the sainsburys area was for 2 hours only, and that I should have parked in the other area.
Again, she didn't want to budge.
In the end, I told the attendant, I'll take the ticket but won't pay.
Unlike other cases, I have interacted with them, and I am wondering what to do now. I am not willing to pay - should I just ignore the ticket?
Many thanks!
