thanks you very much. 

Yes, I am a resident; my parking permit extends to that area. True, the different bays can say different things. most of the bays are resident permits. Thing is i have been parking there on and off for months, if not years, with no ticket. This is the first time hence i never noticed that it was a business permit.

Thank you very much for that, I'll use that picture I checked again today and the sign is still missing. I am going to challenge it on that basis, then. It is a long road, and the sign is missing where I parked, and the next nearest sign is for resident permits.If i am using the missing sign as a reason, what do i select in the challenge options, is this 'impropriety' on the council's part,  miscellaneous, or another reason?

hi, I wonder if I have a shot at getting this challenge accepted. So the vehicle was parked in a 'business permit holder bay' when the driver had a residents permit. I understand the difference and that residents' permits do not extend to business permit holders. However, on this occasion, as you can see in the pictures I have attached, the sign saying Business permit holders only was so far down the street. The picture that the traffic office took was all the way down the road. Compared to the distance of the signs on the opposite street, there was no Business permit sign close enough to where the vehicle was parked. The closest sign, which is just about 4 feet away from the vehicle that is alleged to have made the contravention, is a resident's permit sign. My challenge is that the either there is a sign missing or, this is an error on the part of the council. @cp8759

I'm aware of this gym. If you can show you attended the gym that day, you may get it reversed. The Gym have a tablet that customers are expected to use to enter their registration plates, and that gives 2 free hours. many people forget to do this. I was once done by this, but by that time they didn't even have the tablet working, and the gym tried to fob me off that it wasn't their responsibility. at that time, somewhere on their website had "free gym parking", which is what I used to throw back at them, and they got the ticket cancelled on my behalf. I don't think that wording is on the website now since they installed the Tablet.

I have the exact same form arrive today, for a DCBL claim too. This this fine was sent for allegedly spending more than the allocated time in the petrol station whilst i waited to wash my car. I will wait for the advice given to you. Although i have submitted my AOS.

Quote from: b789 on 17 Jan, 2025 17:21Follow the advice here and no one pays a penny to ECP.Yes it will go to litigation but that is a good thing because it will cost them and they will eventually discontinue as long as the claim is defended.Come back when you receive a Letter of Claim (LoC) that will be issued by DCB Legal (not DCBL).Thank you. I have lost the initial PCN, but I will go to the station today to take pictures of where I was queuing up.

Hello, some assistance, please. This is very frustrating as I have been tossed between the petrol station and Euro carparks. I went to wash my car using the Auto carwash at the petrol station, and there was a queue of a few cars. I eventually washed the car and left. i received the PCN and went to the Petrol station. The guy told me he would contact them to get it cancelled. i still received another letter some months later about the outstanding debt. I contacted the station again and gave them the person's name i got who promised to get it cancelled. I was told he no longer worked there. This new person at the station asked me to contact Euro car parks and inform them myself that i was washing my vehicle. I rang up and informed them, but was told this needs to come from the station. Called the station again and asked for the manager who has not called back. fast forward to today and here i am with this letter.  What are my options, please?

thanks alot for the advice. i will most likely just pay the CCJ so its not on my record. They got away with this one, and ill take the L. i have another case with TFL that i would rather send an N244 form for.

Quote from: b789 on 10 Nov, 2024 08:33In order to. E able to assist you, we need a clear timeline of the following events…1. The date you submitted the AoS.2. The date you left to go on vacation that can be evidenced by something such as an airline ticket/receipt/itenerary.3. The date you arrived back at your residence, preferably evidenced by the ticket/receipt/itinerary referenced in #2 above.So as we don’t have to go back through the thread searching for it, all the relevant dates in chronological order. Dates of PCN, Claim issue, AoS submission, notification/discovery of CCJ.The date you submitted the AoS - 4th September2. The date you left to go on vacation 5th September / Yes i have documentary evidence.3. The date you arrived back at your residence, 23rd September. (also have evidence on ticket)Date of PCN 29/10/2020claim issue - 28/08/2024

hello, i am posting this up again, i now see the error i made and seek your advice. I was asked for the issue date, and it is the 28th of August. This Parking charge is dating back to 2020 for an offence that did not happen, as there was terrible or no signage. I have looked using google maps and i paid the money for the mall. Nonetheless, this is case that i posted before i went on holiday on this forum and was kindly given advice on here by B789. https://www.ftla.uk/private-parking-tickets/euro-car-parks-county-court-no-permit-the-willows-centre-main/msg35710/#msg35710I will like to file a review of the case, or is this not practical at this stage because i did not follow the right procedure to file a defence?

[quote 3. Application Fee and Potential Outcomes• The set aside application fee is £303 (N244 form), but if successful, you can request reimbursement from the claimant.• If the court grants the set aside, it will cancel the default judgement, and you will be allowed to defend the case from the beginning if the judge does not strike out the claim for the usual CPR 16.4 failures.Given the details you’ve provided, emphasising that your misunderstanding was genuine, combined with a strong prospect of defending the claim, should bolster your case under CPR 13.3.[/quote]Thinking about this option and im really concerned that if i pay the £303 set aside fee and the case is thrown out, that i will then still be liable for the £386 CCJ. Which would really put me out of pocket.If i were to pay the £386 can i get the CCJ removed from my credit file or does it still have a major impact, if anyone knows please.

i sent the AOS by email, on the 4th of September, i sent it just a few days after receiving it knowing i was travelling. i will call them tomorrow to get the issue date. i was sent a big pack and once i responded i believe i discarded it. silly of me.

Quote from: H C Andersen on 04 Nov, 2024 13:14IMO, the OP's dates don't suggest they misunderstood but the fact remains that somehow a default judgment was entered and, putting aside a straightforward court c**k-up, this could only have occurred if the AOS was not submitted in due form by the latest date. You won't know which of the possible procedures to follow which are set out in bp's comprehensive post until the issue of the AOS is resolved. OP, only you know so over to you.my understanding of the process was wrong i submitted the AOS, although i did not receive a confirmation of this at the time. i thought i was then going to be contacted as i have in other PCN cases like with an adjudicator, by the court with a date for me and the claimant to attend. I did not realise that i was supposed to send in evidence at a later date. it was when i rang up the court to ask why i have a CCJ against me by default and said i sent in my note that i intended to defend the claim, i was told they received the AOS but not the follow up defence. so i guess i will take the 2nd option. I will look for the initial Parking charge

Quote from: b789 on 04 Nov, 2024 10:58Are you positive that the claim was issued on 1st September? That is a Sunday. Please show us the N1SDT claim form. Leave all dates and the Particulars of Claim (PoC) showing.youre probably right then if its sunday, it may have been a few days before. I cannot find the letter now, but i know when i saw it i aimed to reply asap as i was going to be away on my trip hence getting it back to them by the 5th Sept.
