Hi all,

 

If anyone could help me determining if a PCN is valid it would be greatly appreciated.

 

My mrs has received a parking ticket for parking in a council car park without displaying a ticket.

The scenario is that she was visiting the gym at 5:40pm so she didn't think she needed a ticket, incorrectly believing that parking was free after 5:30pm. The gym provide free parking anyway but she didn't get a ticket from them as she didn't realise she needed it. Unfortunately the free parking didn't kick in till 6pm and she returned to find she'd been served a PCN on the car.

 

She sent an e-mail to the council explaining her situation and pleading for leniency but they refused.

 

I was reading on moneysavingexpert.com about grounds for appealing and it gave a list of items that the PCN must display in order for it to be valid, one of which was:

 

"The grounds under which you can make an appeal."

 

I've read and reread the ticket but I can't see anywhere which it states what the valid grounds are under which you can make an appeal.

 

I was going to post up the PCN but since I don't have the required number of posts I've been unable too.

 

Anyway, can anyone tell me if a PCN is missing this information if we could contest it?

 

Thanks!

I think the grounds on which yopu can appeal are displayed on the Notice to Owner. Scan and post up the NiP as it may be flawed.

If you go to a photo hosting site like Photobucket, you can upload an image there. First, conceal the PCN number and your registration number, and the barcode if there is one.

 

Once it's uploaded, it will have a web page address which you can post here, and we can take a look at the scan.
