i parked my car at the train station and forgot to pay - only realised 5 mins after getting on the train! i phoned the station but they said it was a different company that does fines so there was nothing they could do. I cam back and had a £25 fine!!! I'm a new driver - could i use this? any tips?! thanks:)

Bad luck

Whatever you do DO NOT phone the police and say the car is stolen. That is probably the stupidest possible suggestion - hope it was intended as a joke.

Just put it down to experience, accept that you made a mistake, pay up and move on. It happens to us all

i does not pay it. I comprehend what in basic terms yet another person has written in words of moral duty yet i imagine that the cost for overstaying interior the food market motor vehicle park will really be a disproportionate quantity to the wear and tear led to to the landowner and that the deceptive and aggressive recommendations employed by skill of ParkingEye and its linked debt sequence organizations/ 'solicitors' get rid of any claims to morality that they could otherwise have. the purely disagreement I have with carswood's otherwise precise submit is that i does not complication writing to them - I used to learn from the letter and telephone ping pong which arises from those circumstances yet now I respond to the first letter pretending to come back from a respected solicitor putting ahead that any more suitable contact, keep the service of criminal documents, will be reported to the SRA and paying for and promoting criteria and go away it at that. And that is not a very good, that is an bill.

Unfortunately when you park in any car park you enter a contract to pay their fee, albeit the fee for parking or the penalty fee for breaching their rules.

Thus you will have to pay, otherwise they will probably try taking you to court, adding in the court fees and then if you do not pay they would seek enforcement, probably with balliffs the £40 fee becomes an extortionate sum once balliffs are involved.

Some parking meters now accept payment by mobile, but even then you would have breach the "display" element of their rules and be liable.

Call the company that does the fines and make arrangements to pay it. You can't, and shouldn't, try to get away with cheating the company out of its ability to survive. Someone's salary is paid by those parking fees.

It's highly impossible to have the situation in YOUR favour, since getting money out of these company is like getting blood out of the stone.

Unless, you can prove that you're genuinely suffering from AMNESIA, there's almost a snowball's chance in hell that you'll get away from not paying.
