Free Traffic Legal Advice

Thank you for all the replies

all are helping so many in need of help and can be very confusing
My brain has not yet recovered fully but little better than how it was


I have been checking the website and today, it says ...


I have not yet received the letter from them.

I cannot believe I had lost the discount now I might have to pay extra for stupidly try to ask to be let off..





Am I stupid or the information was misleading to let me think I was allowed to informally challenge it in the first instance without losing the discount???

The call centre was unable to help and then closed, the chat bot system was not helping as it was going in the circle, there was no where to ask for guidance,

There are too many signs on the road added and added, they are un noticeable, unclear, misleading, confusing and rules change according to the borough, it is made to trick people to make mistakes so they can force the fine to make money?
some are time restricted if you don't have access to a watch, no way of knowing. 

It is no difference to phishing online.

The council doesn't want to give you any guidance, they just want you to cough up the money without making so much of a fuss. You should not trust anything they say.

At the moment you have a revoking order so the penalty by law is not £205, at most it could be £130. As I said I think checking the website every day is a bit OTT and once a week is enough, as it might take two or three weeks for the council to process the paperwork.

For now aside from checking the website weekly, you don't need to do anything other than relax a bit. This is not a murder trial and there is a fair chance the PCN will ultimately be cancelled.

Unless others have said this, I would add that you should take screenshots of the page as it is and if it changes.

This may well be your get-out-of-jail card, so don't knock it, be grateful that they're idiots.

That's a fair point, and I would add this: there's not much point in taking a screenshot of just a small snippet: take a screenshot of the whole screen, with the council website maximised, and a small window showing the time.is website, like this:



That way there can be no issue about what the council website was showing on a particular date.

Is it just going into a loop?


Seems the council is just trying to stay unreasonable and make people to get fed up and pay

Unfair rejection hmm

Update :

The PCN online has changed the amount back to £130 ...





but also states I cannot challenge it again ...

Stop confusing yourself follow CP;s advice and once the order for recovery and charge certificate are revoked the dates will allow that the PCN cancelled

Good morning
Swept through by Covid (yes it is still around)
