  1. I have read that payment for a PCN is an admission of liability in itself and closes the file. I have been assisting a friend who wrongly received a PCN (she paid over the phone and I have a complete set of evidence to confirm this) from Manchester City Council back in October 2013. She did nothing to appeal it until she sent in Form TE9 to the Northampton County Court TEC in February 2014. Unfortunately she forgot to 'tick' a ground which resulted in an enforcement officer visiting her house in July 2014 and her having to pay £392 to satisfy the debt. I attempted to file a 'late witness statement' for her (Forms TE7 and TE9) but the Court Officer rejected this application as the PCN had already been paid in full. There is no point in appealing this Order as no doubt the response will be the same. My question is - what now? Can I make an application to set aside the PCN on the basis it was wrongly served and the contravention never occurred; do I issue a claim for unjust enrichment against the Council or is this the end? The Council referred my friend to the TEC advising her to file a late statement and acknowledged that the matter is out of their hands. I would appreciate some help here as I seem to have exhausted all avenues - I can't appeal the PCN as it has been paid (admission of liability) and I can't go to the Traffic Penalty Tribunal as my friend never received a Notice of Rejection of Representations. To say I'm stuck is putting it mildly! Any help appreciated
  2. this is the first letter i've ever received off them, but i will keep hold of it. i was tempted to ring both vinci park service uk ltd and also the debt collectors and to give them what-for, if anything it would make me feel a whole lot better! i might just ask for CCTV footage to prove that i was given an alleged pcn, i know for a fact that i never park my car at the complex, i simply sit in it whilst i wait for my brother to finish work, and i might have been aware had someone given me a parking ticket somehow, since i was in the car at the time! thanks for the advice though, slightly more reassuring, don't particularly fancy paying a £154 fine or facing court action!
  3. i'll post my problem in that forum then thanks! i'm unsure as to whether to totally ignore what they say, don't want to end up in court or the like, but to say i'm livid right now is an understatement!
  4. Much to my surprise i recieved a letter today from Roxburghe debt collectors, acting on behalf of Vinci Park Service UK LTD claiming an unpaid parking charge notice of £154.00 the unauthorised parking event is "F- on yellow lines" and took place at Parrs Wood Entertainment Centre back in 25/02/12. But here's the funny part... I was the owner of the car at the time of the offence, I may have even been present at the site of the offence, but I have NEVER received any parking charge notice whatsoever, this is the first I have heard of about the whole thing, which took place 3 whole months ago! I am now being told to pay the £154.00 within 14 days. I am a law-abiding law student, whenever I have had a penalty charge notice I have paid up straight away, so right now I am confused as to what my next steps are, I have just completed a law degree but unfortunately parking charge notices never arose! Do I contact Vinci Park Service UK LTD first, or the debt collectors? Surely I cannot be found guilty of a motoring offence when I haven't been given a warning or any parking charge notice WHATSOEVER? Any advice on what to do would be most grateful, since I only have 14 days to sort it out it seems! Tim
