Can anyone please offer advice - just received a pcn from a MET parking services re a shopping centre car park. I bought a ticket which expired at 8.27pm and was issued with PCN at 8.35pm and now required to pay £100 within 28 days or £50 in 14 days - is there any way to challenge due to the short amount of time overstayed ?? Thanks

This ticket may have something to do with bollox and chancers maybe.

You must understand that this is a private parking company managing private land and that there is no provision in law for them to issue penalties as there is for the Police/Local Authorities. You do not have to challenge this ticket, simply ignore. However, you could calculate the cost of the 8 min in parking fees and send them that amount of money - that would be fair reimbursement for the loss they encountered through your breach of contract. So 5p would probably do lol - they will threaten you with all sorts but all you have to know is that the threats have no legal basis, are empty and often lies.
If you get a proper parking penalty from an LA/Police always appeal or pay it, if you get one from a PPC ignore it - its hot air.
Hope that helps,
