#6 Smart Parking LTD - Overstayed the 90 mins
on 24 Jul, 2025 21:57 in Private parking tickets
Hi all,Looking for some advice on what to do next, I appealed with Smart parking (they rejected), then I appealed with popla. They also decided to go in smart parkings favor.My reason for appeal was, I had ordered from Mc donalds and the order took ages, then it was incorrect. Used my laptop in mc donalds for some work, then felt unwell so had to use the restroom overstayed by 30 mins. Supplied my receipt etc as evidence that I did actually use the mc donalds and not just left my car there.Now I have a letter to pay £170 to a debt collector agency, and threatened if it went to court it would end up a CCJ if I lost.My question is where do I go next? I feel if I felt unwell I do have a chance if I went to court?
