Hi
Long time reader of pepipoo and followed the instructions on there to migrate to the new website.
Last week I was doing a job for a customer and had arranged parking before starting as per usual, the customer assured me they had a permit for their residents parking.
To cut a long story short, the permit she gave me only allowed me to park on the estate (behind a locked gate) and I had parked on the road next to it.
The customer has given me £30 towards the ticket but obviously I would prefer us not having to pay as it was a genuine error on my behalf after being assured by the customer I could park there. I’m annoyed at myself because normally I’m on the ball with regards to parking rules etc and should have been more firm with the customer to open the gate as I half knew it sounded dodgy.
After looking at the PCN, is the lack of signature a get out? And on a broader point, if there’s no boundary signalling the end of the estate parking and a controlled zone beginning, is that a mistake on their part?
Happy to pay if I’m bang to rights of course but happy to see what the experts say.
Have attached the PCN I came back to on my truck.
Location is Wilman Grove and the permit I had on display was for London Fields West Side
Cheers!
