Title: UKPA PCN – Overstay – The Colonnades, Croydon - Advice Required
Post by: fal73 on April 20, 2026, 05:22:34 pm

The Situation:
  •  The driver entered the car park, parked, and went about their business.
  •  This is a maximum stay car park (90 minutes), monitored by ANPR cameras.
  •  The total time on site (from ANPR entry to exit) was 131 minutes, resulting in a PCN issued to Keeper for an overstay of 41 minutes.

Next Steps & Advice Needed:
  •  Should the keeper ignore the charge? How likely is UKPA to escalate to a County Court claim?
  •  Is it best to appeal the charge using one of the templates I have seen on other threads?

I have attached redacted copy of the PCN
