congestioin charging PCN on sunday in London
« on: October 30, 2024, 10:10:02 am »
hi guys
I havent driven in London in years, and whenever I drive to London. I tend to avoid going in

However I went to my cousins birthday party in London and the next day, drove out of London, and missed my route a couple of times. Hence had to drive into central London.

Being a sunday and no warnings from google maps, I did not think of congestion charges

However I got a PCN in the post demanding I pay £90 or £270 full charges


I am confused, as I didnt know they enforced it on sundays

Any advice ? many thanks

I have moved this to the Council forum as it does not pertain to a private parking charge. To help those in the council forum to help you, read the following post carefully and update your thread with the relevant information - READ THIS FIRST - **BEFORE POSTING YOUR CASE!**, This section is for council, TFL, Dart/Mersey/Tyne etc. cases

You can post the PCN but I have to say it is likely you can only ask for discretion which they are most likely to deny.

The congestion charge times takes a second to check and you had 3 days to pay after being in the zone.

to be honest, I wasnt thinking.

that day, someone ran into me from behind while getting off the motorway into essex. he admitted 100% liability, as I was stationary.

I live in Yorkshire 4 hours from london and when I got home I was having whiplash, heart palpitations, headache etc so was advised to switch off and rest, hence the PCN came in

I have explained all this and appealed it, hopefully a favourable outcome

thanks
