Electric Parking Bay Fine
Hi, i have a fully electric car and parked in a designated bay in a shopping center.
The charger was broken and would not charge my car, the only signage stipulated that out of courtesy, no car should park for longer than 2 hours, which i wasn't.
A few weeks later i received a parking fine with the cause being 'Parking in a bay and not charging the car'
This is actually correct, but...
Nowhere was this displayed and the charger was faulty (i have pics of the emergency button hanging out and a blank screen)
I appealed to them (Premier Park) and lost. Now they have said i can appeal to POPLA but the official Ombudsman as they have decided not to participate in their process.
Any advise would be gratefully accepted
Cheers
