Anyone wiser than myself? Appreciate all feedback. Thanks.

Hi folks, Last week I received a PCN in post from Croydon Council for a 62J contravention. I requested and have then received evidence pictures as well I can recall the incident. I went into my local surgery to pick up my daughter's presciption. There is no parking around, apart from one parking spot in front of the Surgery (off road). To be honest, there was a car parked there already. As I knew I will only be gone for a few minutes (prescription was ready for collection), I parallel parked my car on pathway with hazard lights turned on. A few days later, the PCN arrived. I now know that it is illegal to park on pathways, can I dispute this PCN in anyway, as money is a bit tight just after xmas... I read somewhere that the PCN has to be served on the day of contravention, but noticed that this letter was printed/sent 5 days after the contravention happened. I requested them photos as well, which are attached at the end as well. The pictures are somewhat vague as it was raining at that time. I am attaching the letter and photos with this post. Thanks for reading and appreciate your feedback.

Well, posted the letter this evening. Hope I get a quick and favorable response!

Thanks for pointing my silly mistake. Would not look good if they debited my account with that money.

Its being worked to 13-Feb since it is 1 month's notice (not 4 weeks')...

Just to clarify this once and for all, I have just come off the phone call to ACAS, and the gentleman pointed out that the termination notice would count a month from 14-Jan-2010 till 13-Feb-2010 in my case. So, all in all, I am entitled to unpaid salary from 1-Feb-2010 to 13-Feb-2010 inclusive, plus a week's unused holiday entitlement. And, since I was last paid on 29-January-2010, I can write to the Tribunal until 29-April-2010. A lot of things clarified then !

Mariefab, Just revisiting all the posts in this threads before posting this letter, I have stopped at your point once again, and clarifying that since my contract speaks of "Contract Termination Notice", doesnt that mean "notice to terminate my contract"? Which would count from 14-January-2010 when the notice to terminate the job was announced to me? This is something that has really bothered me since yesterday!

Currently 9-10 retail shops with about 40-50 staff most. My final appeal hearing was also chaired by the CEO, hence addressed to him. Is it all good then ?

Yes, I am sending it recorded for evidence.

I have been drafting a letter to send to my employers. Does this look fine or do I need to add anything? If I post this letter today, it should be recieved by Tuesday 6-April-2010. So I have given them time til Friday 9-April-2010 to get back to me if they any further information. I have given them time til Tuesday 13-April-2010 to pay the amount into my bank account. Since my job was dismissed on 31-Jan-2010, I believe I have time till 30-April-2010 to have my Tribunal letter sent. So I have prepared the dates in this letter accordingly. Please comment. Many thanks.

elpulpo, so would you also agree I should my employers for salary from 1-24 Feb inclusive as mariefab explained here? Many thanks.

Sorry, but its even more confusing now. elpulpo suggested that I am due a payment till 11-Feb, and you have now pointed that I am due a payment till 24-Feb. How are you working this out ?

Yes thats right, on pure performance basis.

Many thanks for the quick clarification, and while you are in this thread, do you possible know an answer to this? Many thanks once again!

I worked full time, but because of the long hours in bookmakers industry, I used to work 39 hours in 3 long days (13 hours each day) between Mon-Sat and every other Sunday (once again counted as 13 hours). So all-in-all, I still ended up doing 39 hours per week plus 2 or 3 Sundays a month. Does it still hold on in this case ?

Thanks for the link, but it is still quite confusing in my case. I used to work for 39 hours (in 3 days) a week, plus every other Sunday. So what would be my holiday entitlement ?

Thanks for the great help. Can I ask you why should I ask for pay till 11-Jan and not 14-Jan ? I believe my 90-day Tribunal deadline expires on 11 or 14-Jan following your advice. So I was wondering, if I send out a letter to ex-employers today, what sort of deadline should I give them to get this account settled, before I can seek Tribunal's assistance? ACAS suggested 14 or 7 days notice depending on how long I had. Is there a template letter I could use for this then ? Can I also ask another question kindly. I had also accrued 3 weeks paid holiday during my service there (1/12 for every month worked, if less than 12 months), and I had only used 2 weeks out of this. So I want to be paid for this holiday as well. So in this letter, should I request my remaining salary + 1 weeks unused holiday entitlement + P45 to provided to me within 7 days? Many thanks once again!

Here is the part about suspension and termination in the letter dated 14 January 2010.

Here is a scanned copy of the contract!

I am also getting a scanned copy of my contract here for your referrence!

I have been paid till 31 Jan 2010

This is a not-so-large sports betting (bookies) organisation I used to work for.

There is no clause in employment contract regarding gardening pay or pay in lieu of notice. However, should I not count notice period from either: a: 14 Jan 2010 (since that is the initial termination notice), or b: 26 Jan 2010 (since they uphelp the initial disciplinary decision on 26th) (very confused at the moment!)

Yes, they told me of my dismissal on 14 Jan 2010, and I had to work until 17 Jan as intended. Then I was suspended for 1 week.

Hi all, I was dismissed by my previous employer end of Jan 2010 and have a couple of questions regarding this dismissal. a. My job was dismissed after 9 months of work. So I believe that a termination notice of 1 month applies in my case, as shown by contract termination clause below. It was not professional misconduct, so all normal regulations apply in my case. My contract states, However, when I was paid my last salary on 29 Jan 2010, I was paid wages till the end of Jan 2010. To clarify this, I will state the dates below: Disciplinary Meeting 12 Jan Disciplinary Result 14 Jan (notice of dismissal on 31 Jan 2010) Last Day at Work 17 Jan Dates between 18 - 24 Jan, I consumed my pre planned holiday week Suspended from Work 25 Jan Appeal Hearing 26 Jan Dismissed 31 Jan After speaking to ACAS and Employment Tribunal, I am confused as to where my 1 month's notice starts from and ends ? (to allow me to claim from my employer) b. Is there a template grevience letter to be sent to my previous employer asking for this money to be paid to me ? If this is still confusing, please ask me... All help appreciated!
