************************* ********
Second ticket was stolen from my car. When I advised the council that I did not recieve the ticket. The told me that there was nothing that they could do and I have to pay the £40
Is there anything in the wording I can contest? Is there anything I can do with the second missing ticket?
Ticket 1 if issued uneder the RTRA1984 can onkly be caled an excess charge notice (ECN) If the are calling it a pcn then it has been issued under the wrong act an is invalid.
In the second case, they should have a copy, otherwise how can they prove it was issued in order to enforce it.
Re the second ticket you could also make a Statutory Declaration that you never received the initial ticket, that would turn the clock back and reduce the cost of the ticket to the intial charge and not the £40? But I also agree with Patdavies, if they have got the wording wrong for the actual tickets then they wouldf both be void under that particular act/ section.
Friendship costs nothing but its rewards can be priceless. Do not judge, as you will not be judged but if you can, try and assist where possible.
everyone is entitled to MY opinion! I offer my comments without prejudice or liability.
