Driver had an appointment at Royal Free Hospital. Parking was paid for using RingGo and where possible either extended or new session paid for while in hospital as follows:
19 Jun 2026 11:20 - 19 Jun 2026 12:20
19 Jun 2026 12:20 - 19 Jun 2026 13:20
19 Jun 2026 13:23 - 19 Jun 2026 14:23
19 Jun 2026 14:31 - 19 Jun 2026 15:31
The driver was either at the vehicle or approaching the vehicle at the time of expiry. As they were finished at the hospital they didn't extend the parking any further. Due to temperature in the vehicle and of the steering wheel they were unable to drive away immediately.
PCN received yesterday.
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Please dont obscure dates.

Post the notice(s) you have received as well as providing important context, the notices may contain/omit details that can be used to help you successfully fight the charge. Upload photos of any and all notices you have received from the parking company. You should show us all pages of the notice(s), remove personal details (name/address, PCN reference number, Vehicle Registration Mark), but show us all dates and times. Details that you think are trivial could help you win, so dont leave anything out.
I am of the understanding that the PCN should state that they are pursuing the notice under pursuant to schedule 4 of POFA. I cannot see this in the PCN.
There is no requirement to explicitly state "Protections of Freedom Act 2012" or similar, but in order to use the legislation to transfer liability there are a number of requirements which need to be satisfied, and in this case they aren't, there are explicit statements which need to be made which aren't made here.
So an appeal can be on the basis that the registered keeper can not be liable in place of the driver, who will not be named, because the requirements of PoFA 2012 have not been met in the notice.
I agree - PoFA Schedule 4 Paragraph 9(2)(f) is completely missing so there is no keeper liability.
The Registered Keeper contacted the Hampstead Heath Team, who then contacted Park and Control and requested that the PCN be cancelled. The Hampstead Heath Team then verified that they had received confirmation from Park & Control that the PCN and the associated debt recovery action have been cancelled.
If anyone finds themselves in a similar situation, please contact the Hampstead Heath Team.
Thank you to everyone on the forum who assisted.
