Harrow Council, code 83 Parked without valid ticket, Harrow Leisure Centre
« on: »
Hi,

On 07/02/26 I received a windscreen PCN in Harrow Leisure Centre carpark. Parking is free for the first 3 hrs but I forgot to press submit at the final stage on the PayByPhone app.

After reading advice for similar cases on here, I lodged an appeal online on 19/02/26 explaining that I forgot to press submit and if they could cancel the PCN as it was in the free period anyway. I got an email back acknowledging they had received my appeal and would try to reply in the next 8 weeks.

It has been over 8 weeks and I haven't heard anything back on my appeal (I've also checked my spam folder).

On 08/05/26 I received an NTO in the post saying the penalty has not been paid and giving me the chance to appeal.

Please can you advise what the next step is? As I understand it, if they don't formally respond to my appeal within 8 weeks, it is  deemed to have been accepted - is this correct?

Thanks for any help in advance.

No, you're not correct. There is no statutory maximum period for responding to informal reps. If you look at the 'small print' on the back of your PCN, you'll see some text that they will consider reps, but if they serve an NtO anyway, you must respond to the NtO. There is a limit of 6 months to serve an NtO, and a 56 day limit to respond to reps against that.

However London Tribunals look at anything over 3 months as unfair and candidate for cancellation of the PCN.

That's for moving traffic contraventions as they do not have the 56 day limit.

Thanks for your replies. I have attached images of the original windscreen ticket and NTO I've received.

In this case should I reappeal via the process on the NTI with my original argument?
