Private parking tickets / Re: 2 PCN CHARGES - Peterborough wentworth street car park - parking eye
« on: June 15, 2026, 09:48:02 am »
Hi everyone, thanks for all of your comments and suggestions.

The driver spoke to the hotel who mentioned they will email parking eye to get both fines removed.

As this hasn’t gone to court or bailiff action yet, they are able to get them cancelled.

Thanks for the advice and hopefully this helps
Someone in the future!

I have not! I will do that this evening.

Just by simply reaching out and asking them to email parking eye?

All I needed to do was go in and tell the hotel I was charging and they give you free parking! I don’t know if that changes it at all

Thanks for the info. The driver has just requested the original PCN’s from parking eye. Out of interest, what is the next step after getting the original PCN’s?

Thanks for the reply. So request the original PCN from parking eye.

I was tempted to email the debt collection agency and say I’m happy to pay the original parking fines but not the extra on top as I moved house and haven’t been receiving letters etc.

Hi everyone. This was received this in the mail last week.

For context, the driver charged an electric car May 2025 in the same spot on 2 separate occasions when travelling to and from home and didn’t realise you also HAD to pay for parking (which I personally think is a joke). The driver received a letter about this matter last summer but then moved house and it completely slipped their mind. They have probably been sending letters to the old house and the driver hasn’t been receiving the mail.

The driver received this letter (attached) this week and wanted to know their options.

Links to the letters - https://postimg.cc/gallery/Jz6gpCt

The driver has asked mates (not legal advice) and they have given a mixture of ignore it as it’s a private parking fine and the driver should pay it.

Hoping to get some advice on here :)

Thanks in advance!

Hi jfollows,

No documents from Parking Eye yet - hopefully the cost of the PCN doesn't go up by the time I receive it.

Thank you for your help.

Hi everyone,

Thanks in advance for your help.

I have received 2 PCN charges from "Parking Eye" from the same car park in Peterborough - Wentworth Street Peterborough.

The driver was planning on charging their car both times, plugged in, and left once fully charged.

The driver rents their car from Octopus Vehicles, who have forwarded on the parking notice in an email but no formal documentation.

Can the driver contest this?

My name and address. Octopus told me a while ago that all penalty charges / parking fines go to them and they forward it to us.

Maybe they asked Lambeth council to resend the letter addressed to me?

Hi,

I didn't get a PCN in the post. I hire my vehicle through Octopus EV and they receive all mail first and forward it on.

Does it look like this is the second letter?

Hi everyone,

I'm new here but thanks for your help in advance!

Today I was issued a 34J - being in a bus lane from Lambeth council on Clapham Park Road. It happened on the 05/10/2024 at 9:49am. I remember waiting in the lane at a red light - a cab driver pulled up alongside me and mentioned it was a bus lane and that I needed to reverse and not go through the red light which I didn't.

Are there grounds for me to appeal this? £130 seems quite excessive for a short stint in a bus lane. I only got a car in September so I could argue that I was new to driving in London etc.

Any previous experience with this/advice is greatly appreciated.
