I received a reply via email today from Oxford Council rejecting my appeal against the above. I tried appealing to their “better nature” as recommended by member Incandescent I,e apologising for error sure to visiting the area etc. I have been re offered the discount of £35. live in Scotland so I know bailiffs have no authority here but could you advise on next steps? Thanks

Update - wanted to appeal with polite representation as suggested above. Then read on Oxford Council website appeal form

“If you make your challenge within 14 days of the date when the notice was issued, you will typically have another chance to pay at the 50 per cent discounted rate if your challenge is rejected”

The above is not disclosed on the paper copy of PCN. In fact the paper copy states that

“Any representations are made against the £70 Penalty Charge”

I am now outside the 14 day period where I would still pay £35 if my appeal was rejected. However it seems unfair that they don’t mention keeping the discount only on the web form for appealing effectively discriminating against people who appeal via email or in writing ( both of which are options on the paper PCN)

Hi

Yes - broke the journey by staying overnight at my sister’s in Oxford before doing the second leg to Torquay the next day

I need to pay up or appeal in next couple of days. Is anyone able to comment on my mitigation in previous post or offer any additional advice on how to proceed?

Many thanks

Mitigation would be -

The driver was on holiday and was passing through Oxford whilst driving from Glasgow to Torquay. He was unfamiliar with the roads layout and was momentarily distracted by kids in back seat spilling a carbonated drink. He did not notice the signs and accepts this was his fault. The driver would like to apologise for his poor driving and observational skills. He accepts blame but would really appreciate leniency in cancelling the PCN on this occasion.
Many thanks

Date of alleged contravention - 22/7/25 13:06


I am the registered keeper of the vehicle. I live in Scotland and I am aware of the no keeper liability. With the introduction of the Transport Scotland Bill does this still apply and if so can I ignore the letter?

I can add images depending on response to above.

Edit: the driver was on holiday and not familiar with roads in the area

Many thanks

Private parking tickets / Euro Car Parks overstay Scotland
« on: July 15, 2025, 10:27:29 am »
Hi,

Driver of vehicle received PCN for overstaying in Morrisons car park with 3 hour limit. As the registered keeper I am aware of no keeper liability in Scotland and have the standard response from Dr Satan ready to send. Before I do that I have a question. On the How to appeal section there is a line which says - If you are a Morrisons customer with a valid receipt, then please refer to our appeals process below.

The driver has a valid receipt from Morrisons. My question is - should I attach said receipt to my prepared response?

Thanks
