Please show us all the documents including the hire lease. And please do not send anything to the council yet.

56 day rule is for formal reps to an NTO.

They have 6 months to serve an NTO.

The NTO is served on the registered keeper so if you want to go on with this you'll need to sort out the lease company making reps to get the NTO reissued to you and they may charge a fee that makes it not worth it.

If you post the docs as per the read this first sticky we can advise further.

I think from reading procedural impropriety would be my argument

Hi all

I received a ticket for parking on a single yellow that was stuck to my car. I've already appealed and just need some quick advice but will set the scene (check next para for my question). I parked on a single yellow in a cpz zone, got out and checked the signage and moved the car straight away but the enforcement agent ticketed despite watching this -he has claimed via his notes he didn't see me I say he did as we spoke about it so council cannot substantiate my claims.

This incident happened in June and it has taken the council until today to reject my appeal. As it has been well over 56 days, would this argument mean I could get the ticket cancelled? This is a car I lease. In their rejection email they say I would have to wait for the NTO and then could formally challenge. I suspect this would go to the finance company. Or does the 56 day rule only apply to formal challenges. This is Croydon Council so I suspect they would miss the deadline anyway
