Hoping to submit by tonight during discount stage.

No discount, I'm afraid, this expired weeks ago, you're into full penalty territory now. Of course they might re-offer the reduced payment were they to reject reps.

The latest date for submitting reps which the authority is obliged to consider is 12 Oct.

I spent a hour or so last night looking about the location,so have to be careful in the wording of reps.Use this


Representation against the imposition of PCN number XXXXXXXX VRM AA 23 ABC



I am a careful and competent driver who drives for a living. Never would I deliberately ignore a road sign. Before making this representation I have examined the photographic and video evidence carefully and cannot see a blue sign that it is alleged that i passed.

If I cannot see a sign I cannot surely be convicted of failing to comply with it's instruction and this PCN should be cancelled

I would not go into more detail than this at this point as it will make no difference we can say more if this goes to tribunal

Simple is best, but IMO you should get them to identify the sign as it's not apparent at this stage to which sign the contravention refers.

that would be the obvious thing to do, but councils do not usually think that way and will do no more than rely on the video, and if that is the case so will the adjudicator

Dear @Pastmybest,

Thank you very much for your help I submitted those reps on time! Apologies for the delayed response:))

Dear @H C Andersen,

I agree with you, that is what I thought as well. But my discount stage was until 7th October confirmed by their website and a council agent I called. Apparently they add extra time for discount stage due to post taking too long sometimes?? According to the council worker.

The discount period and amount are prescribed under the Act. Whatever else they choose to do above this is their choice, as are the amounts, although it's always 50%. They'll probably re-offer is you're unsuccessful.

as i did not write the reps until the 8th you will just have to wait and see what is offered but to be clear any representation made after 14 days negates the right to the discount amount indeed you would have to make reps and the council respond within the 14 days to allow by law the discount rate
