Dropped off my car near the beginning of June at a local garage and received it back on the 10/06/24. Had multiple problems with the garage as they handed it off to someone who kept on delaying the completion date but eventually got it back and fixed after a lot of hassling and getting them to wave the labour cost. Received a PCN today (links below) and it seems either the garage or the person they handed it off to drove the car into central Southampton and left it there for a few hours, resulting in a PCN.
I have proof of when I picked up the car (a receipt) and possibly proof of when I dropped it off (location data from my blackbox but not sure how admissible that actually is).
As I'm not in Southampton at the moment, I plan on calling the garage tomorrow to ask for payment but they will most likely deny any responsibility. So my question is, if they do so, what should be my next course of action?
Thanks in advance for any advice
