So are they likely to take this furhter or will they leave it unpaid. I don't want to be spending ages fighting £25 for it to backfire and its more about time and effort as well but I certainly don't agree with how they go about there business.

Which council though. The notice was issued with a Keele Uni header. Would I send this to Newcastle under Lyme council which Keele comes under or Staffordshire County Council?

Yeah I'll watch the thread but thanks for the advice though, appreciate it.

It is £2 a day to park or £1 for half a day. The ticket was issued as I overslept and the machine only lets you get a ticket from 8am and there are only two parking machines, one at the main entrance to Keele in a laybay and this other near the halls which has been out of order for a few weeks but is working again now. I mean I know they are bullies, but potentially by leaving it will I end up getting in further trouble. I'm a bit of a worrier over things like that...the registered keeper isn't actually me yet, the car is new to me and the details haven't changed yet.

What is the issue with the codes then? It says I breached code 1 which was failure to display a pay and display parking ticket.

It does say below that NOTICE OF BREACH OF PARKING CONDITIONS though.

Ticket Front Ticket Back Sorry about it being sideways, my editor won't let me save it when I convert it! Hope that is adequate though!

I haven't got a scanner however I can try and photograph it.

I recently visited my girlfriend in halls and was subjected to a parking ticket. The idea is you need to display a permit or a pay and display ticket. However I'm wondering if I can contest it. The entrance from the south side has no warning signs. You drive along a stretch of road and then on the right is the halls and parking. Further up the main link road about 50-100yds is a pay and display machine with sign of the charges and to display and pay park on Keele campus. However in the halls car parks there are a few signs dotted on trees, but nothing facing the entrance to the road. The parking ticket says: 'Civil Penalty Notice' NOTICE OF BREACH OF PARKING CONDITIONS AT KEELE UNIVERSITY. ISSUED BY THE CAR PARKING PARTNERSHIP. Veh Reg: On ticket Make: Ford Seen in Location Keele University: KU - Residents Parking and Pay & Display Ar Ticket Issued at 11.06 on 16\12\08 Civil Enforcement Officer 003 has reasonable cause to believe that a civil penalty has been incurred because: Code: 01 Parked without clearly displaying the required permit or pay and display ticket. A CIVIL PENALTY OF £50 IS DUE WITHIN 28 days of issue.. Discounted amount of £25 will be payable within 14 days. What are my rights here exactly? Fair enough I didn't display a ticket but there isn't exactly signs everywhere stating Pay and Display except on the uni road further up from where I turned off. They also don't state my exact location either... Any help appreciated.
