I agree with Simon's view too.
A number of years ago, I received a ticket although I had purchased one.
It was displayed on the dashboard, as it seems, as a cost saving measure, they are no longer sticky.

My son went back to the car to get something, and all I can think of was that, when he slammed the door, it flipped the ticket over.
That was how it was when I returned to the vehicle, together with a parking ticket on the windscreen.

Anyway, not a problem as I had a valid ticket, which I sent to the council with an explanatory letter.
They were having none of it, as failure to display a correct ticket is also an "offence".

Live is too short. I now do not use the car park. Instead I park, free of charge, in the road.
We should be even by about 2023.
