Sorry for the delay - I've gone through the tenancy agreement and there's nothing in black and white confirming the parking situation, we've just had verbal communication with the estate agents while the building management have never mentioned anything about parking to us. As per reply from brassnecked I've left notices around the building asking for information from other residents regarding any potential PCN's they may have received and any grievances they may have. I've also emailed the building management asking who owns the land which the car park is on but I'm waiting for them to get back to me. Message timed out before I completed it. In short, sit tight and wait for them to get in touch but just build up evidence against them? Thanks for taking the time to reply, it's much appreciated.

Hi all, I have received 2 Parking Charge Notices (for different contraventions) that are at different stages. I have received the NTK for infringement 1 while infringement 2 occurred on August 31st so I still have a few days before the NTK is sent. I am looking for some advice as I feel both have been administered unfairly. Please let me know if it's advisable to open a new thread for the second PCN to avoid confusion. PCN 1 For a windscreen ticket (Notice To Driver) please answer the following questions.... 1 The date of infringement? 04/08/2017 2 Have you yet appealed to the parking company yet? No if you have then please post up whatever you sent and how you sent it and the date you sent it, suitably redacted. [as a PDF- follow the upload has there been a response? please post it up as well, suitably redacted. [as a PDF- follow the upload guide] If you haven't appealed yet - ,......... have you received a Notice To Keeper? (NTK) - YES what date is on it - 05/09/2017 Did the NTK provide photographic evidence? YES 3 Did the NTK mention Schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 (PoFA) NO 4 If you appealed after receiving the NTK, did the parking company give you any information regarding the further appeals process? [it is well known that parking companies will reject any appeal whatever the circumstances] 5 Who is the parking company? Millennium Parking Services 6. where exactly [Carpark name and town] did you park? Live in a rented flat in Cardiff, returned from holiday on August 3rd to find out the car park (private parking) was to be regulated by Millennium Parking Services starting on August 1st. We were unaware they were being brought in. Each flat has one allocated space but I live with my partner, both have cars so when the building management company provided us with permit we had one for a permanent resident (my partner uses) and one visitor pass - I used the visitor pass and placed it in the windscreen. Now the contravention Millennium Parking Services have said is that it wasn't displayed clearly. As I wasn't provided with the plastic pocket I placed it in the corner of my windscreen. The photos that Millennium have taken are from an angle where you can't see the expiry date or that it states Visitor permit. The PCN was issued 3 days after they began regulating and you can clearly see it is the permit we have been provided. What advice would you give for this contravention? I have attached an image of the permit, the permit displayed on the day and the image the NTK has provided. PCN 2 For a windscreen ticket (Notice To Driver) please answer the following questions.... 1 The date of infringement? 31/08/2017 2 Have you yet appealed to the parking company yet? No if you have then please post up whatever you sent and how you sent it and the date you sent it, suitably redacted.

[it is well known that parking companies will reject any appeal whatever the circumstances] 5 Who is the parking company? Millennium Parking Services 6. where exactly [Carpark name and town] did you park? As mentioned in PCN1 we have private parking, and although we have 2 cars unfortunately there's only 1 car parking space allocated but there are 4 visitor spaces specifically for the building apartment. However upon moving into the flat I asked the estate agent what the process was for residents who had 2 cars and the response was that it's "first come first serve" for the visitor spaces and that other residents use them to park their car in. The contravention on PCN 2 is that I was parked for longer than the prescribed time. I have attached an image of the signage around the car park which does advise 'visitors' can only park for 24 hours and there's no return for 24 hours I work in Cardiff and walk back and forth to work my car will often be left for 2/3 days without use at a time I don't want this ticket to be the first of many. I have written to the building management who it seems don't want to get involved feel at a bit of a lose end as I can't see the point of appealing. Any help for either will be very much appreciated - please let me know if it's easier to start a second thread for the second PCN. I will be back on here around 5pm tomorrow evening so will respond to any questions or queries then. Thanks in advance guys! IMG_2700.pdf IMG_2912.pdf IMG_2991.pdf IMG_2940.pdf
