You could have paid it but still filed a complaint against the officer. Doubt anything would come of it but maybe still worth it?

Agreed. I definitely should have explored more options and fought it. It was actually remarkably difficult to even pay the fine from the UK, let alone file a complaint - but I guess I shouldn't have let that stop me.

Unfortunately it is a common tactic to do that on purpose like only allowing complaints to be filed in person.
