there are small signs dotted round the place, certainly no huge signs as you drive in. But this is in Luton, I live in London, have'nt got the time/money to go up there specially to take pics in the hope that I could get this waivered. *sigh*

The PA would also be patrolling all the residential Pay and Display stuff, council parking etc etc, the slip even came in the well known Yellow "Notice to Driver" plastic packet that sticks to your windscreen

Issued on Thurs, got 7 days to make an appeal, 14 days for £40, 28 days for £80. Just read the Daily Mail article, linked above. So it seems I could be traced via DVLA no problem, would they take this to court though? Thurs 15th June that is

so I guess I might as well pay up?

The PCN in question: Regarding the wording of the date, I appreciate thats a long shot as its a private car park. What got me into investigating whether this ticket is invalid was a few months ago, I read an article with a retired police officer who was so fed up with the way traffic wardens behave he wrote a book on how to overturn your PCN. One simple factor he mentioned was that if the colour is wrong, the PCN is invalid. THIS is the main factor I want to clarrify as the colour on my PCN is completly wrong.

even if the PAs are the same ones who patrol the council run parking too? I appreciate its a long shot, getting fed up with being continually vultured out of the very little money I have now. Thanks for the help though Mondeo

Hi Everyone, Read this thread almost back to front, wondered if I could get some help. Got a parking ticket on Thursday in a private car park which was enforced by some sort of a Parking Attendant agency. Much has been mentioned on this thread about the date being incorrectly worded. My PCN say "On (date): ", does this make the ticket invalid/illegal. Also, while it has the car make, it does not have the car model, more significantly, the PA got the colour of my car wrong. The PCN says Colour is burgundy, the car is actually a bluey purple. The PA did take a foto of the car, I believe he took it AFTER I had taken the PCN off the windscreen. Will try and make a copy of the PCN ASAP. Any help greatly appreciated.
