Free Traffic Legal Advice

Thank you. I am hoping the centre will be able to sort this out.

Is it worth putting in the appeal with Parking Eye now, or just waiting to hear back from the centre?

Thank you.

Hopefully this works! Image

Hi all

I visited a leisure centre about a week ago, and unfortunately I didn't release their car park had parking eye and you had to enter your reg in a tablet inside (you didn't have to pay, it just covered you for parking for a few hours). I don't recall seeing any signs for it but it could just be me being oblivious. It was also in the evening and dark.

I've since contacted the centre and sent them the parking fine notice and they were going to raise it with them directly for me. They said they couldn't guarantee anything but will do their utmost for me.

In the meantime, what should I do about the fine? It says it goes up to £100 after 14 days (it was issued on the 15th), so is that the 29th or does it take into account weekends/bank holidays? Should I go through the appeals process with them as well, or see what the centre come back with first?

Appreciate it was my fault for not knowing and following the process, but just seems a bit harsh to have to pay it when I was using the facilities. If the centre can't help, is it worth fighting or is it best just to chalk it up to experience and pay the £60?

Thanks.
