Thanks everyone, Bromley council agreed to cancel the PCN stating it was the first and last time they would do it for me.

making sure to mention the full fee was indeed paid for the parking session.

Thank you stamfordman, will challenge the PCN in a polite way.

It is not my first ever offence in Bromley, but last time I did pay the PCN after having forgot to pay for parking.

When the contravention is not paying the parking charge as here there is a stronger case to challenge but usually councils fall into two camps - those that cancel for such a first time mistake and those that don't.

With Bromley you're in luck if they abide by their policy doc.

Hello,

I have received a PCN for parking without payment from the Bromley council. What happened is that I did pay for parking (through RingGo) but for the wrong reg plate.

I use more than one car on regular basis so I have several options to chose from in RingGo. I chose the wrong one this time and got the PCN. The receipt from RingGo shows that payment happened before the PCN was issued and supposedly Bromley can actually see that both numberplates are associated to my account. It seems that they cannot claim loss of revenue.

Is there a reasonable prospect for getting this PCN cancelled ?

Thank you.
