Hello Experts,

My car had broken down and recovery van towed it to the garage and parked near the garage in a wrong way. They issued this pcn, kindly advise. I tried to contact them few times but they are asking me to write but not replying to my emails either.

I am very close to the deadline of making a representation.

You make representations by one of the methods stated on the back. I suggest you go online to hounslow.gov.uk/parking and do it TODAY because this is day 28(counting starts on the day of the PCN, therefore 13 May was day 1).

Sorry, but I cannot see the council cancelling because it's your* car and you cannot transfer liability to the towing company within parking legislation. You could pursue them separately if you have to pay the penalty, but this would be another matter.

The photos show the car with 2 wheels on the footway and on DYL with a loading restriction. Ali's Autos sits in a sea of such restrictions which surely you knew? It could have been towed again, but this time to the pound.

But at least make reps e.g. not left with your consent but by recovery company ABC etc. Expand as necessary. 
*- are you the registered keeper with current DVLA details?

Hi,

Thanks for the response. Yes, I am the registered keeper with current DVLA details.

I would make representation today, what do you advise me to do, to pursue with the recovery company.

I spoke to the garage owner and he tells, he did advise the recovery van driver to park with no wheels on the footway.

Regards

Really! So out of the frying pan into the fire because the car would still be on DYL which is also a contravention!

Make reps and do it now.

Forget about the towing company etc. until you get a response to your reps.
