Hi, yesterday I parked in a disabled bay by the charity shop in my supermarket car park, so as to be close enough to carry the heavy goods into the shop. In the ten seconds I was gone, I was issued a parking ticket from the private firm who are now operating there. I didn't even know they were employing these people. I knew I would only be there less than a minute.
The ticket he issued me with says the make model and colour of my car, but he has typed the wrong reg into his computer. I have gone not the company's website, to appeal, and that also has the wrong reg on. Surely that means they cannot chase me for the £70. Or am I wrong?
Wait to see if you get a follow up letter. They trace you through the reg number so if they have the wrong one they can't find you to send the letter.
If this is a private parking company then the ticket is not legally enforceable anyway. What is the EXACT wording on the ticket you got ?
