  • Earl Haig Smart Parking Ticket

    Hi,

    I did a search on Google and the results brought me to this forum. Please could you guide me. I have been issued a parking ticket at Earl Haig.

    The story is that: I parked my car and paid for the one-hour ticket, which I displayed on my dashboard & took the refund part with me to the store. My mum did shopping at Iceland and I went to pick her up. I have a receipt from Iceland which falls within the time-frame of fine being issued. She had paid for shopping already so the cashier took my ticket and gave me a pound out of her till. The car which is on my father's name received a ticker. I appealed and gave them my details. I received a new ticket and appealed.

    They have now written to me with a POPLA code. I went back to the car park and realised that I paid using the wrong parking machine which is operated by Excel parking. This machine was opposite where I had parked. The parking area is not very well lit and I was rushing for my safety as there was a group of people huddling together on their bicycles so to avoid getting mugged I paid using the wrong machine. I also realised that there were parking machines operated by smart parking but they were behind me in the corner where the gang was standing hence why I avoided going there.

    I have thrown away the parking ticket that I paid £1 from Excel parking but I still have my Iceland receipt. Please can you help me?

        Just confirming...in your first post you put 'gave my details', but not in what capacity (Driver, keeper, registered keeper etc).

        Have you tried approaching the Iceland management for help on this?
