Try writing to the company stating your case.
My Dad did so and they gave him his money back.

Seems that they can listen to reason.
It's just a pity they hand and out the fines and then ask questions later.

All is not lost..... give it a try!

Town: Stubshaw Cross

I have written two letters and sent a e-mail but the company did not even reply to them it looks to me that it is just a money making scheme for whoever owns the car park .I don`t think I will be parking on there again.

Town: Ashton

I finaly got a reply from the company saying they had looked into my case said they would cancel the ticket had to phone them up to get my money back .I had to send a few letters to get through to them but got there in the end so it seems they do listen eventually.

Your persistence has paid off David. Seems that they do make mistakes but they do , eventually, admit to them.

Hope you feel better.
