Flew a training approach into East Midlands in February in my own aircraft. Dutifully waited for an invoice and nothing. Called E.mids ATC and asked what to do and they explained that invoicing is now handled by Manchester, their owners. They gave me the payment number. Having tried that number at several times of the day and days of the week, no one seems to be home, just rings out. Confirmed the number with E.mids.
A Google of "Payments to East Midlands airport", revealed 100 ways for passengers to pay but none of the numbers wanted to take my approach fee.
In this wonderful aviation community there must be someone else who has flown an approach in a non-club aircraft and paid someone in Manchester who may have a number to call?
This keeps happening to me. I owed ADP for quite a few landing fees, the staff in their towers keep telling me they will invoice me, the owner of the aircraft, but never did and they keep letting me land. Their accounts department only speak French so I have long given up trying to explain the problem and sent them a wad of Euros to the approximate amount stapled to a letter explaining in English what it was for.
Perhaps I should do the same to East Midlands?
