Sorry, I will get back later this evening and set you some tasks. BTW the chatbox will be removed tomorrow as today is the last day NSL have the contract - it expires today. Sorry I have 4 appeals to write this evening. PM sent. Don't worry about the discount.
Please type in the statutory grounds in the search bar, see what the result is and retype it and screenshot it. Best if you do this from your PC. I have to do another one for a friend this evening. APCOA are taking over tomorrow so it is important you do this tonight as the website may change.

cp8759 may well differ re strategy; however, I have gone in hard re a moving traffic case and one parking case to test their response. I also have damaging evidence from their parking department.

Hi @Hippocrates and @cp8759,
I just wanted to touch base with you to see if there were any further updates on this? Conscious the discounted time-frame is ending this week.
Thanks

I am conferring with cp8759 re the best strategy here and the other case.

Thank you Hippocrates - much obliged!
I'll await your feedback.

The way to beat this is via their shabby website grounds. I will be back later this evening. Meanwhile, this thread expains:

I need time to go through your ticket and promise to get back.

I received a PCN on Sunday 22nd September 24, as I had admittedly parked in a bay designated for loading.

I was parked right outside a shop, and had been inside for no more than 3 minutes(!) before I noticed a warden, through the window, taking pictures of my vehicle and placing a ticket on it. It seems they were stationed on that road, as they appeared very quickly after I entered the store.

Do I have grounds to contest this, and if so, what are the next steps? Feel free to let me know if there are any other details you require.
Thanks in advance!
