An East Midlands holidaymaker says he feels "scammed" by a car park operator in Cornwall after receiving a fine of £100. Paul Spooner and wife Christine had travelled to Sennen Cove in West Cornwall for a family reunion in April.
Mr Spooner, 49, parked the family car in the village's beach car park at 2.11pm on April 7 for 24 hours. But the machine, which took his car registration details, did not issue a ticket.
Given that other cars were also without tickets, Paul thought he would be safe in continuing to use the car park. But he eventually received the fine of £100 and when he tried to call car parking operator Armtrac Security to appeal the fine, he couldn't get through for two days, Cornwall Live reports.
