HXCPM ANPR PCN - Car Park, Lawson road Brighouse

[abobp100]

Hi,

 

I have just received a PCN in the same car park. Parked in a disabled bay, displayed a valid badge and presumed it was free for blue badge holders, apparently not?!

 

Based on what's been said previously in this thread do I have grounds to contest because I never put coins in the machine? Is this the best angle to challenge?

 

Thanks

Hello and welcome to CAG.

 

It's best to start a new thread of your own please, that way you can have bespoke advice from the guys.

 

Best, HB

for the moment do NOTHING, never be in a hurry to contest as they arent going to listen to your appeal so starta new thread and give us every bit of info you can regarding the date and time of the event, paperwork received etc and when you got what. They normally fall down on procedures and not following the law, never mind argumants about what is an invitation to treat and what is a contract.

After a bit of checking, this company has been around for about a year. On their website they claim to be members of both the BPA and the IPC. They are not members of the BPA and as such, you can expect no sympathy from them whatsoever as their appeals procedure will fail and any subsequent appeal will fail as you would have to go to the IAS appeals service which is biased because the owners are also the owners of Gladstones solicitors.

 

As this company have taken only two cases this year to court, it is unlikely they will do so in your case but don't hold your breath.

 

Personally, I would ignore them until/unless court papers turn up

as they are busy suing someone else they will be taking notes on how that is progressing so if they lose it is more likely they will drop the matter rather than risking a large costs order for being unreasonable the second time round but that doesnt mean you dont prepare for war.

 

So, again we need to see your NTK and any photographs of the site you can muster and that includes pictures of the disabled bays and the parking meter instructions as well as signage.

 

we dont assume that anything is the same
