Free Traffic Legal Advice

I renewed my resident permit 31st January 2025. I received an email receipt and the money had left my bank. I immediately left for London to be with a sick relative and take them for a hospital day procedure.

I received a pcn 11.2.25.

The council had sent me an email 3.2. 25 requesting I re-upload my insurance docs but I had not seen this because I was away dealing with my relative. The email from the council was sent after my payment had gone through and therefore I thought no more about my permit.

Advice is needed before tomorrow which is the deadline before the fine goes up to £70.

Many thanks
 

This is the ibb.co link for the PCN. I HAVE also attached it as a file. It is both sides. The second side is at the bottom of the proof of payment.

I don't know what a GSV link is so I have added a link to the location.

I hope that is correct.

Many thanks.

HELLO THERE. HERE IS a 'copied and pasted' version of my appeal which I received advice for on this forum regarding a PCN FOR NON DISPLAY OF RESIDENT PARKING PERMIT. MY APPEAL WAS REJECTED VIA AN EMAIL LINK. I CANNOT FIND THAT EMAIL ANYWHERE HAVING SEARCHED AND SEARCHED MY INBOX. 

Any advice on how I access the rejection letter I can't find the email of and how I present my case in the next level (which I don't know because I can't find any details)

Many thanks for your help.


I am challenging this pcn for the following reasons.

PCN BH86826949


I renewed my residents permit in good time on 31st January 2025 and before leaving home to attend to the needs of a sick relative who lives in London therefore I was away for some time.  At no point in the on-line renewal pages was any notice given that the permit would not be renewed until the council had seen a particular page of the insurance document for the car. The only message was that 3 x proof of address was not required. I therefore consider the PCN not to be valid because I had followed all the instructions on the Brighton & Hove website for renewing a parking permit and the payment had left my account and the council had been paid.

Thank you for getting back to me.

The pcn for the non display of a resident parking permit was issued 11.2.2025.

Many thanks

I have been served a Notice to Owner dated 11.4.2025. It arrived in the post. But I did not receive a response to my appeal. Just this. I am the registered keeper.

Thanks for your response. Yes I have got all the paperwork together to re-rep myself and I will request the opportunity to pay the discounted amount though the permit was paid for 2 weeks before the pcn but I had not received it in the post. The last couple of years they have been perfectly happy with the non display of permits because they are online anyway so I believe they are being unreasonable suddenly changing their minds about that and I will make a statement to that effect when I do my appeal.
