I’ve noticed that some kind folks on this site have provided advice to people who have been sent extortionate parking charge notices. I have received such a notice, and will be very grateful for any advice on whether I am likely to be able to avoid the charge, and how to go about doing so. The specifics relating to my case are: The car park attached to our local Lidl store used to allow one hour’s free parking (I believe ostensibly for customers, but actually used by non-customers also); this allowance has evidently been changed without my noticing it as I have received from Athena ANPR Ltd. a “Civil Parking Charge Notice” demanding £90, subject to a discount of £45 if paid within 14 days. I parked in the car park on 16th September (but did not purchase anything in Lidl), and received the notice today, 20th September. I returned to the car park today to check signage (picture attached); the period of free parking for non-customers is now 10 minutes, which period I exceeded by 21 minutes. While I accept I was daft to miss the new signs, and am quite happy to pay reasonable parking charges, I believe that this kind of charge is completely unacceptable. My question for anyone knowledgeable on this subject is whether I have a good case to fight this charge as a non-customer of Lidl, and if so, how best to go about it. Many thanks in advance to anyone prepared to help. -
Hello I have just joined this interesting looking forum. I noticed there are some posts from a few years ago about parking charge notices from the company Athena ANPR Ltd. I have just received a Parking Charge Notice for £90 for overstaying at a Lidl supermarket car park (£45 if I pay within 14 days) . To be honest, I just forgot about the time so I don't have a valid reason for appealing. I think the amount is excessive, particularly as currently the local council-controlled parking area behind the Lidl car park is blocked off due to building works so there was nowhere else to park. I wondered whether this notice has any legal standing or whether it is OK to ignore it. I am concerned that this company were able to get my 'registered keeper' details so quickly from the DVLA. Any advice would be welcome!
