Hi - hoping someone can give me some advice. We parked in a private car park for a few minutes back in october. Didn't realise it was private, it's behind a parade of shops, left engine running whilst I ran into the bank (H in car with DCs).
To be honest this car park has been covered in the local press so for ease of story I am posting the link here www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/10865615.Car_park_turn_for_a_sandwich_cost_family___60/ - I hasten to add it is not me mentioned in here, but clearly this is a car park with attitude!
I had emailed the debt enforcer for the car park owner - Debt Recovery Plus - along the lines people said in the comments section in the news article above i.e. its not enforceable. Now have received a "reduced payment offer to avoid court proceedings" giving until 19/2 to pay £138 (original fine was £60).
I can't afford this, feel its very unjust, and would welcome some guidance please!
Thanks
