A large operator running retail and supermarket car parks, mostly via ANPR cameras and postal Notices to Keeper.

Not automatically. A Euro Car Parks charge is a private parking charge — a breach-of-contract claim, not a statutory fine. If you believe it's unfair or defective you can appeal to Euro Car Parks free of charge, and a rejected appeal escalates to POPLA, which is also free for you. Charges can be enforced through the county court if ignored, so respond one way or the other rather than doing nothing.
