Woman slapped with £257 fine after she underpaid parking fee by 10 PENCE

A WOMAN has been slapped with a hefty £257 fine after she underpaid her parking fee by a mere 10 pence.

However, the matter was assigned to Elms Legal Ltd as the car park operator had not heard back from Ms Ashmore. She added:"I rang them first, they said I had to pay and if I wanted to dispute it, it would cost me more money.""You don't look at your ticket, do you?You just put it in the car and go."Fair enough if I'd have put a pound in and it cost £4. But just for 10p - it's wrong."

"Subsequently, a Parking Charge Notice was correctly issued to the individual’s address provided by the DVLA for breaching the advertised terms and conditions by clearly explaining that they had remained “parked after the expiry of the time purchased”, providing photographic evidence of the same. "Sadly, nothing was heard again from the individual, which resulted in a pre-court letter being sent to same address again explaining the situation in its entirety and inviting them to seek free legal advice and such free organisations contact details were also duly provided.

"The individual never defended the claim, which resulted in a default judgement being entered against them.
