@Grotesque thank you so much for that! I’m on my phone so wasn’t sure how to do it. I’ve just got another letter from dcbl through the post, “final reminder”

Photos as requested Photos as requested Helpme24's Wright Street Southport photos -1.pdf

Thank you for the information, Sorry for the confusion, I have not made any appeal for this pcn, I’ve made no contact at all. I was just stating in a previous incident with DCBL years ago, I paid up, I’m not this time round. I have attached a screenshot of the car park on Google Maps. I will go and get some photos now. so far, I’ve learned that there is a 10 minute grace period they have to abide by, and the driver is now liable. this PCN is literally about 35 seconds! I actually first came across this forum, because there was a case to do with Wright Street Southport back in 2019. I think it was to do with something about it originally being applied as council owned or something to do with advertising, I was trying to follow the thread but it was quite confusing , I believe it’s about the same car park, if you could find it, the previous case may be able to help this, I think that was about an unpaid ticket.

Hello, thank you so much for your replies, this is the best help I’ve got so far! I have taken a picture of the back as you requested and attached it. Am I right in thinking that there is no 10 minute grace period for private car parks, it’s only Council? If there is a 10 minute grace period for private car parks then yes, I was literally 35 seconds over it! Which is absolutely ludicrous to try & get £170 out of me! And as I said, I’m in no financial position to pay this, so I don’t know how to go about any of it. I have an appointment card to prove I was in Specsavers, but it’s handwritten, so I don’t know if that’s suffice. Ive left DCBL letters before & they came after me hard & I feel almost like now, they know they’ve got money out of me before, they’ll do it again? Like I’m probably on file like you go after this one she’ll pay up lol. I just don’t know on what grounds I can get out of it, as yeah I was over the time limit by 35 seconds if there is a 10 minute grace period, because doodoo happens I just don’t feel the amount is justified and these companies don't care why you were late in their eyes. With regards to timing, it was received late just because I wasn’t at the property, I think timing wise they’ve done everything right on their end. Thank you in advance for your help in advise!

I hope I’ve posted for help in the correct place. I’ve been away from the property for quite awhile and came back to 4 letters about a parking charge. I was 10 minutes and 35 seconds over the time as I was late in an appointment. I can prove the appointment but it’s in hand writing on an appointment card, I haven’t appealed yet and it’s out of time it happened back in November. They’re now wanting £170 dcbl, I’m actually financially unable to pay this. I have a financial statement recently written up by citizens advice to prove this as well. I’m just watching some guidance on what I should do. As last time I ignored DCBL. They did do a letter before action of the court.
