Today on 05 June 202, I received a letter from a debt recovery company relating to an a PCN issued by Smart Parking on 14 July 2023.
I have had no communication from Smart Parking at all relating to this - nothing at all, dating all the way back to the offence date. I tried to log an appeal through their system today based on that fact but the appeal was not registered by the system - I assume because it is so old and the time window for appeals closed a long time ago. The system message just said it didn't work and to try again in 24hrs. While trying to submit the appeal, I saw the photographic evidence and it is my car - I know that if this had been sent to me at the time, I would have just paid it. I am prepared to pay the original fine, but not the increased one.
Any advice how to proceed? Of course, I don't see any way to communicate with them and they won't respond to an appeal via their email address. I have convinced the debt collectors to extend my pay date by one week, so now only have a few days to try to sort this out.
Thanks.
