Quote from: Enceladus on 04 Feb, 2025 13:34Please post up a GSV link to where you were parked. And are signs on GSV still current?There are no photos on the Council website presumably because you had to pay the PCN.I have paid both the PCN and tow charges on the day and got my car released. I was told to appeal after paying the charges as the charges keep on increasing for storing the car in the pound.Now I am checking to see if there is a way to get at least part of the charges back or the best options I have. Please bear with me with me I am not making much sense.Thank you

I managed to get a couple of screenshots that show the sign. [ Guests cannot view attachments ]

Not sure about duplicates, but even to view a photo it is so slow that it takes 4-5 mins to load after clicking on it. I was shocked that they had the time and patience to upload all of those tickets for parking in a paid parking bay that was next to a resident’s bay and then towing it away to charge an extra £200.

The photos are available on the council website. It takes about 4-5mins for them to load as they have uploaded 104 photos on there. Not sure if it is normal 😲I will try to download a couple and attach them here.

Sorry added the PCN here as I was going over the limit in my earlier message. [ Guests cannot view attachments ]

I have been issued the attached PCN and details on how to make a representation for parking contravention 11u. It was a genuine mistake on my part where I thought all the bays were for resident parking with permits which I do have for the area.I don’t mind paying for the PCN as it was a mistake on my part but feel the towing of the car was a bit too harsh specially when I have recently moved to the area. What option do I need to select for the CLamp/ Removal Representation and is there an option to do this online or is it only postal option to The Parking Control Office, PO Box 74924, London E17 0UGOr should I make the representation for the PCN too where there is an online option at www.walthamforest.gov.uk/ocm.What are the chances of having a positive outcome and the best points to highlight in this situation. Sorry for repeating the details as this is completely new to me and don’t want to send a representation out by making some rookie mistakes.Thank you all for your time [ Guests cannot view attachments ]

Thank you @Incandescent for the reply. Can you please point me where and how I can submit representations as this is pretty much my first penalty notice albeit an expensive one with the towing charges included and my first experience of resident parking permits too.

Hi, I was issued a PCN for parking in a bay without payment of the parking charge and the car was towed. The details on the ticket are 11u Parked without payment of the parking charge (electronic payment).I have a resident’s parking permit for the area, unfortunately the spaces I usually park were all full and I ended up parking in this space. Half of the spaces there were for resident’s permit holders and a couple of spaces that are paid parking spaces. I have moved into the area a month ago and didn’t notice there were a mixture of paid and resident permit holder spaces. It was a genuine mistake I made and should have looked at the signs carefully, which turned out to be an expensive lesson for me.The car was given a PCN in the morning, around 11:45 when I went to move it to a bay where I usually park the car and closer to the flat I found the car was missing. After panicking for a few minutes, I called the Walthamstow council and was told the car was towed and is on the way to the pound and I should collect it from there. I paid the charges of £240 and had my car released.I have attached the PCN issued. Are there any grounds to appeal these charges. Would appreciate any help.Thank you [ Guests cannot view attachments ]
