I received a Notice of Rejection to a PCN I appealed 130 days ago.
The driver has misunderstood directions given
And, in the context of a different PCN, We received a Charge Certificate October 16 2024 for a PCN we didn't receive.
So, as you weren't the driver what weight would the adjudicator give to the issue of signage - as it appeared to the driver in real time- as opposed to just looking at the council's 'cold light of day' video and photos?
This question probably doesn't need to be asked, but I will...are you the person to whom the PCN was addressed or are you a corporate entity? If the latter, then do you have the addressee's authority to submit an appeal?
More info about a company background could help IMO.
For example, IMO if you should try to give the adjudicator some real practical and operational background rather than just go in cold with your 'unconscionable' argument.
If it applies maybe.......
***** is a haulage company which operates X vehicles from ** to ** tonnes. Such an activity in London invariably includes the risk of poor directions from clients in combination with what appears to us to be a proliferation of useage restrictions on main access roads. Consequently, being served with PCNs is not an unknown. We make every attempt to deal with these within procedural time frames and could at any time have one or more PCNs in various stages of enforcement.
Dealing with these is not a full-time establishment post within the company but recently has been taking up more of our time as authorities' responses, when strict regulatory limits do not apply, seem to be taking longer. This makes effective management more difficult and could even lead to drivers and authorised persons concerned having left.
