NCP - Parking Contravention Notice

[propertyboy]

Hi All!

 

I have been browsing this forum for quite a while, and today I fell victim to a PCN at Stanmore Underground Station Car Park - which is operated by NCP.

 

I have attached a photo of each side of the ticket for you all to look at...

 

Basically, is the ticket valid and do I need to pay the £50 fine issued??

 

Would love to hear your advice...

 

Thanks

Btw...there is no discount period offered. Its a £50 flat charge which must be paid within 28 days.

Fraudulent rubbish.

 

• do not pay

• do not contact them

• ignore threatening letters (expect them from Roxburge and Graham White)

• they will give up and go away

 

Forward a copy to your local Trading Standards and inform them you have received a fraudulent parking contravention invoice purporting to be a breach of byelaws penalty. Tell them you have found that NCP are running this [problem] throughout the country.

More byelaw fraud by the look of it. if you want some fun take it to the local magistrate's court (where real railway byelaw tickets get addressed) and ask them about scheduling the hearing. when the court officer (get their full name) tells you to get lost as it is nothing to do with them start the real complaints flying. transport police, police, MP, papers etc.

Great! I thought that was the case from reading other messages throughout the forum.

 

Out of interest then, how are NCP allowed to get away with it??

Might trawl the forums at the weekend and print out every one of these - we've had about 10 now.

 

Will forward to British Transport Police and Trading Standards.

 

They get away with it because nobody informs the authorities.
