Misleading parking limitations - Compo

I recently had the experience of roadside parking Friday night/Saturday morning in Lewes. The sign on the ticket machine clearly stated charges only applied Monday to Friday 8-6, BH included. You guessed it. By 11 am Saturday morning, I had a parking ticket. Only in daylight did I see that the plate sign further up the road said charges Monday-Saturday.

I have appealed - result unknown as yet, but what galls me is that the signs all look at least a couple of years old, so this little trick must have been in operation for a long time.

Any bets on the chances of my appeal being successful?

Take photo's of the machine and the restriction signs. I'd guess if you can tolerate the appeals process you could have a good case, however................................
