Great thanks, you and b789 have been a big help.

So just a quick update on this, I've had a few letters from debt collectors now and was ignoring them but since something has come up within my family I decided to contact Spar, who have just sent me this email

Parking Ticket Cancellation Confirmation.

I have received confirmation from Luke, the store manager, that the parking ticket has now been cancelled.

Please feel free to contact us if you encounter any further issues regarding the parking ticket.

Regards

The question I have now is, since I assume I'll still get letters from the debt collectors, should I continue to ignore them or tell them that the owner of the car park has cancelled the ticket?

Thought I'd update, the PCN was cancelled. I guess I caught them on a good day!

Just tried to appeal to IAS but got the following message

Quote
Your PCN or Registration Number has not been recognised. Please try again.

Please Note: If you have had your appeal rejected and you have been told to enter your appeal on this site but keep receiving this message; please contact the operator that issued the charge for assistance.

The IAS will not have the information to assist you at this stage.

Operator Contact Details can be found at www.theipc.info/aos-members.

I was happy to waste their time appealing but now this has happened I can't be bothered, even that website they put at the end doesn't work.

So I'll just ignore everything they send me now is it?

Yes I knew it was getting rejected, I was just posting an update. The fact they offered to reduce it to only £20 tells me they're just looking to get what they can out of me. I will post that to IAS now though, thanks.

Just got an email saying my appeal was rejected.





So I guess my next move is to send what b789 gave me, but who am I sending that to? IAS?

Just saw another post with someone adding the video, didn't realise I could do that so here's a link to mine I don't know how to attach it sorry

Yeah they are outdated for sure, the car park I left to get on this road is shown as a car dealership in one image. Anyway here is where I took the left turn.

And just incase this makes any difference, here is a picture of the car park (where I also received a parking ticket!!) from which I entered the road, there's a good chance I entered the bus lane here without realising and drove the entire lengh.

Sorry, but following satnav instructions is not a valid reason for cancellation of a PCN. We see cases like yours all the time on this forum. Satnavs are never up-to-date, as traffic restrictions are being introduced daily, and Cardiff is a particularly bad place for this.

Yeah I know I'm probably going to end up paying this, it's just annoying that I genuinely wasn't aware I was in a bus lane and the left hand turn I made wouldn't have taken me 2 seconds longer.

Yes just the front and back of 1 page is all that was sent to me.

I've just accessed the video which shows I didn't use the bus route to get ahead of traffic since I'm the only vehicle heading that direction in the video, but am clearly in the bus lane.

No, this is the only letter I've received and it came today.

The cut out words are (from top line to bottom)

If you want me to retake the picture though just say. Thanks.

Thanks, I had assumed it was the same as the other forum so blanked it all out, should be sorted now though.

OK got it, just wait and see what they do next. Thanks.

If the recipient of the notice appealed on day 13, he might struggle to run an argument that the claimant cannot prove the notice was delivered within 14 days.

If the presumption that a notice sent by post (PoFA itself doesn't specify first class post) can be rebutted, I would suggest it can be rebutted both ways (ie, if the sender can show that it was received sooner than that, by, for example, showing that the appellant appealed before the presumed delivery date and therefore must have received it sooner).

Sorry, I'm a little confused now. Should I stick to what b789 told me to reply with next or are you saying it wouldn't work because I've already sent an appeal off on the 23rd?

Had no idea I had even driven in a bus lane illegally since I was following GPS directions in an area I'd never been to before.





So been to Cardiff one time driving in my life, got my first ever parking ticket and Council PCN in the same journey!
