Serious post or piss take?
So let me get this straight you parked horizontal, straddling three bays....empty or not...You totally deserve a ticket for being a complete tool.
Oh by the way, once you've paid your £45. Pay some more money and go back to college and learn how to make sense.

If its a private parking company which the OP says it is then you are not legally obliged to respond. Its not a 'fine', no company can issue a 'fine.' Courts and councils etc issue fines, not parking companies. Its a request for money for alleged breach of contract (like a 'fine' for an overstay) They'd have to take you to court for you to have any legal obligation to pay it. So just ignore it. In between the bickering and spelling police abusing the OP i thought it was important to point this out.
I know you're all enjoying forcing your opinions on the OP but it is important to spell out some actual facts as well. I know this isnt meant to be a consumer advice website but wouldnt pointing out he has no legal obligation to respond and a polite nudge to park properly next time to save himself the hassle be a better way of going about it?

well said, thank you.carreauchompeur said:

Well perhaps but the OP may have dyslexia as you know nothing about someone from a post on the internet. If he'd spoken 'correctly' we'd be advising him that he doesnt HAVE to pay it and 9 times out of 10 they dont bother chasing you for it. I agree he parked like a pleb and some of the parking on retail parks is quite amusing but thats no reason to embelish facts.martin84 said:

Polite? Quite a big nudge, I'd have thought, to spin the car through 90 degrees and leave it neatly between the lines?Gassing Station | Speed, Plod & the Law | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
