Private parking tickets / Re: APCOA Parking Charge - Luton Airport Pick Up / Drop Off Zone

good to hear this! I had a situation today which I may need to appeal against!
I dropped my daughter today at the drop off zone which took about 3 mins but it then took almost 40 mins to move from that area as cars were at a standstill due to the building work close by. I went to pay and it says I have exceeded the maximum time which was 100% not my fault as I couldn't move which will clearly be seen on CCTV and my own dash cam. there would have been 100s in the same position, did anyone get a penalty charge for this situation? I did put my details in manually and pay the £5 but am worried I will get fined for something that was totally beyond my control!
