Parking charge notice

[shipitgood]

Hello,

I have recieved a parking notice 😔

What is the legal status if you recieved a parking charge notice from a hotel after staying with them?

If you completely ignore  it I guess that chances of being taken to court are quite minimal but would you have a leg to stand on if it went this far?

More details needed.

Why did you get a charge if you were staying with them, did you forget to validate?

Seemingly you had to pay for parking , even  guests staying there

So have you contacted the hotel? If not, do so and state your name, date of stay and reg number and ask them to cancel.

I've been collared a few times at restaurants where they obviously 'sell' the parking rights to a 3rd party company and you're supposed to 'validate' at the restaurant, but I wasn't made aware of this when entering.

Got them cancelled easily enough with a phone call, as the staff should have told me to enter my reg before being seated.

I'd call the hotel to try speaking with someone and plead ignorance. Hopefully they'll let you pay for the parking retrospectively if you butter them up a bit on the phone.
