They have re-offered the discount, and to be frank, I don't think you could present a winning appeal to an adjudicator at London Tribunals; the signs are clear enough IMHO.

Thank you, appreciate your input

Any help is appreciated :)

There's 7ft width restriction there which is distracting and possibly ambiguous.

Could I argue that my car is within the restriction and so penalty shouldn't have been issued?

As you've posted here before you could at least put the borough name in the thread title and the contravention as well as location.

Anyway, doesn't look good although it's combined with a width restriction it seems.



Apologies I've amended it.
What do you mean by the width restriction?

Hi
Would appreciate help in seeing if I can appeal this effectively. I don't have any memory of going here unfortunately so can't provide details 😅

I also have had a look at Google maps and can't see any clear signs.

?

So both you and the driver at the time are due a visit to Specsavers because the signs could be seen by a visually impaired rider facing backwards on a galloping horse and would be found by any assessor or judge to be visible and clear, certainly as far as GSV in April this year is concerned.

Plan A.

Please kindly share a link

Plan A is always the easiest method to get a PCN like this cancelled. If that fails, you can easily fight this but it will be a prolonged process and will also depend on whether PE handle it in house or farm it out to the incompetents at DCB Legal.

Prolonged processes are my favourite  ::)

Agreed, most parking companies deny appeals simply because many people then pay up. Even when the appeal is correct. @Swahmad is confusing them with decent, reasonable companies - they don’t care, they only want your money.

I've dealt with PE before where I incorrectly received about 5 PCNs. All appeals were rejected but as soon as it went to POPLA they folded before they could judge

Surely I should win this easily in appeal as there's no obvious signage?

You mean except for the entrance sign which even on Google maps can clearly be read that customers  must register in store and undoubtedly multiple signs around d the carpark?

 b789s approach seemsa much better option,  no harm putting an appeal into Parkingeye as well, just don't reveal who was driving, say the driver did this and paid that.

Undoubtedly? So I must be blind then haha
Genuinely didn't see a single sign and I did have a glance around. I also have had a look at Google maps and can't see any clear signs.

Previous advice from @b789

You can try emailing the Aldi CEO, Giles Hurley, at gmd@cs.aldi.co.uk with a complaint about why has a customer been invoiced by their third party enforcer to the tune of £70? If you have a receipt for purchases on the day, include that as evidence and ask that they get their agent to cancel the unfair PCN.
You’ve said you don’t have a receipt but you can show proof of payment.

Through my credit card statement yes.

Hi
Just been visiting family in London. I live in Liverpool and just got home today 10/8/25 at about 1am to a lovely PCN.

Reading reviews on Google, it seems many others have faced the same as you apparently have to input your number plate in the system. There was no obvious sign for this. No staff member made mention of this.

I believe day 14 is today, the final day for the reduced fee, which is why I thought to post this despite being tired and it being 3am.

Surely I should win this easily in appeal as there's no obvious signage?

I don't have my receipt, but I have a screenshot from my amex app showing where and when I've paid.

Tia!

Anyone else have any other opinion or advice? Could I argue the distance from the advance signs is too short?

If no other comments, I will pay it.

Score will be:
Liverpool city council 1
Me 1 (I won a previous PCN appeal)
 ;D

The advance signs just ahead couldn't be more clear IMO so you'll probably have to take this on the chin unless we can see something wrong with the PCN or their website wording.

The PCN says a charge certificate will be served and later may be served.

What's odd is the video shows four cars including yours going through the bus gate - maybe there's an exemption for some.



Probably will just have to pay. Maybe Google maps keep diverting drivers through here. More money for the council 🤷‍♂️

Looks like this one is catching people out but the signs look clear - what were you thinking the layout meant?

I was in Liverpool the other day - I'm pretty good at navigating but it's one of the most confusing city centres I've been in.



I'm pretty sure I would've just been following Google maps which I'm assuming won't hold up
