Hi.  I was going to pay this one but noticed something when starting to make payment so thought it might be worth asking


The reverse of the PCN states that payment can be made at a post office or paypoint outlet by producing the barcode printed on the front of the PCN, but the PCN has no barcode.

Worth a shot for procedural impropriety?

TIA

Worth a shot yes - they should stand by what they say on a PCN.

Thanks. I'll make representations on that basis.  Obviously they will reject and I'll decide what to do from there.

We haven't looked at the contravention - what's the story?

Pretty much bang to rights.  I own a house in the street (don't live there). Went to meet tradesmen, was chatting to them about some work and the bugger sneaked up while I was distracted. Had probably been there 15 mins or so. Checked the signage. Seems ok.

You have time to wait and see what the experts here say, but keep an eye on deadlines.
Remember that this is just the rejection of your challenge, as Newham say, next stage is NtO (Notice to Owner).
