Hi Everyone - thank you for the replies. Sorry for the slow update. So I had a letter (attached) basically saying I still have to pay as contravention code 01 applies saying that light goods vehicles are allowed to stay for 2 minutes. Incidentally they state the officer saw my vehicle from 17.23-17.35 and no unloading or loading - although the photos show my car door open. They say th notes say he had a conversation with me stating he had been there for 3 minutes prior to issue of PCN -so in there view that takes it to a total of 5 minutes.

There apparently was a no waiting restriction sign 1 meter away - is that the same as a no loading sign?!

I'm not sure whether to contest further. I thought there wasn't a sign- does the no waiting sign mean no loading too.

They say 'where your vehicle is parking it is permitted to stop for as long as is reasonably necessary for the purpose or picking or dropping passenger however you are not allowed to leave your vehicle there.

Thanks it's really just a standard letter though of how to appeal etc. It only says 'the vehicle was allegedly involved in the following parking contravention : 01 - park i a restricted street during prescribed hours in X road at 17.25"

It was a single yellow line parking that resulted in the PCN (not a restricted dsteeet as far as I'mn aware!) and orginal PCN states the single yellow line as the offence

Thank you so much everyone. What a helpful place. And to those of you who were upset I didn't reply for a along time - i'm so sorry! It's my first time using the forum and I didn't realise how active it was. I have jsut logged in to read all the replies!

I was awaiting getting something in the post - from either the council or the lease company. Thankfully it came direct from the council as a notice to owner letter with a link for another appeal option.

I plan to reply following @NightSoul 's advice (thank you!)

I'll keep you updated.

i received a PCN on my lease car which was parked on a single yellow line while I picked up my young daughter from school (- of which there is no on site parking and there were no available spaces on the road bays). The PCN states it was observed from 17.23 - 17.25. The photos taken show me at the car with my child and with the doors open and the report by the officer says he witnessed the car for "more than 5 minutes'. At the time I said to him "I was 3 minutes", and he said "you were FOUR". Either way the photos are of me at the car and the PCN details only 2 minutes. I appealed and it was rejected on this first round of appeal

1) Am i correct that i am entitled a short period of time to load? there a no 'no loading signs or marks on the pavement to indicate i can't load' The county council notice that arrived  in response to my appeal said loading must not be for longer than 3 minutes. Well, only 2 mins were listed on my PCN, but the statement from the officer says 5. I thought I was entitled to a reasonable amount of time.

2) I have been told that if I wish to continue to appeal further I have to wait for a Notice to Owner. This is a lease car. I'm worried they will pay the fine and charge me the fine and an admin fee. However I am told that  only after receiving a Notice to owner can I "make representations challenging it" (i'm not sure what that even means!?). My concern is I will not get this notice posted to me and as such won't be able to appeal

Thanks in advance for any thoughts. i did read all the FAQs - i'm so sorry if i've missed a thread on this!!
