Author Topic: HARROW Council 4 PCN - Parking permit fell off the display holder - charge: parked without displayin  (Read 728 times)

Hi All, I was on holiday and got back to 4 PCN's. Turns out the Parking permit holder thingy had warn off due to the weather and came off causing my parking permit to fall down between the dashboard and the windscreen (down near the vin number). unfortunately, it wasn't visible at all and took quite some time to get it back out  :'(

Any advice on what to do or am I just screwed?

Side note: on the councils website, 1 of the pcns pictures dont clearly show my windscreen, they took a blurry pic, could I get away with this?



And another where you can see the pcn covering the vin number


Surely they have some way to see my car is has a permit from the reg number?

images below show the pcn's and another of where abouts the permit slipped down (Fell way down from the pic, just an example)

Pics aren't needed to enforce.

Who supplied the permit holder?

Your best bet is to ask politely for discretion on them all as this was an accident and you were on holiday, and of course you had a valid permit.

How long have you been a resident and permit holder?

Harrow is also well behind the times in not having virtual permits so has to take some responsibility for permits detaching from windscreens, and here one would hope it would at least cancel three out of four.

I got the permit holder myself, the council don't provide anything

Been a resident like 20 years and permit holder since it started maybe 15 yrs

oh so pictures they take aren't really evidence?

The pictures are evidence but you can't say a permit was clearly on display when it wasn't. Well you can but we won't support you doing so and in any case the CEOs will have notes.

Being a longstanding diligent resident is a good card to play.
