I've been informed that my Dh has not been paying parking fees when parking my car to go to work. He enters car park during the day and doesn't leave until the small hours of the morning (night shift). Barrier is down during the day and you have to put in your reg no and pay before you leave. It's free to park after 6 and barrier is up from about 10pm for the rest of the night. Due to the fact that the barrier is up when he leaves he for some reason thought it was fine to just leave. I didn't know this was happening, so got a fright today to be told that we are now getting a legal letter and bill for the amount owed in parking and a fine.
I'm really angry at him because it's a lot of money and it was so avoidable!
I'm going to pay it obviously, but just wanted to check first if there's any legal reason that we shouldn't? He leaves at the time when it's free and the barrier is up. He says he genuinely didn't think therefore that they were expecting payment. They've also waited until this has happened 200 times before telling me. No one's fault of course, but if I'd know earlier I'd have stopped him.
We have to pay it, don't we?
