Free Traffic Legal Advice

Thank you all for time and effort. I intend to follow you advice and take them on, even if it means getting Debt collector letters and more. Just read what “frustration of contract” means and it appears to fit like a glove in this case.
Will be in touch with any updates and for further advice and guidance along this journey.

Thank you

Hello, I would be grateful for any guidance on this overstayed parking issue due to car broken down. On 17 June 2025 I was parking in a car park operated by CP Plus Ltd in Greater Manchester, it has a 2.5 hr maximum stay. when I was about to leave within this time I was unable to do so because I discovered my car had broken down and I contacted the RAC. Told it would be a number of hours before they could attend.  I called the Car park call centre and was told, If I e-mailed the CP Plus Ltd that I would be exempt given I've exceeded the time due to waiting on breakdown recovery. RAC estimated 4-5 hours before they could get there. I decided to get a taxi home, sent the email to CP Plus at info@groupnexus.co.uk. explaining the situation as advised, then at 10.30 got a taxi back to car park to meet RAC. I was issue with a PCN by CP Plus for £100 for this incident. I appealed to CP Plus / Nexus which was rejected. But they did state they would reduce it to £20 if I paid in 14 days as per The Private Parking Sector Single Code Of Practice annex ‘F’. But if I appealed to POPLA and it was rejected the reduced charge of £20 would be withdrawn
I appealed to POPLA and this was rejected. They also stated in the rejection that because my appeal had been rejected CP Plus were in their rights to cancel their reduction and pursue the full £100 charge.
Do I have to pay the full £100, can I pay the £20 or is their another alternative.
Thank you
