I was parked in Lidl, Peckham whilst I went to a meeting.... this went on longer than I had anticipated and even tho I had paid and put my ticket in the car I was ten minutes late retrieving it.  I have received a CIVIL parking charge notice of ?45/?90 with a threat that if I don't pay up I will be handed over to a debt collection agency.  Is this legal?  The company call themselves Athena ANPR Ltd.  Does anyone know the rules about things like this???
