Hi, first-time poster on this forum.The driver received a PCN for parking in a visitor bay while visiting a friend who recently moved into the estate. A PCN was left on the windscreen. The friend had advised that the visitor bays were available for visitors, but it turns out this was a misunderstanding—an honest mistake.I am the registered keeper - any way this can be appealed? PCN Details: "The Site Enforcer had reasonable belief that the above vehicle had committed the following contravention:Contravention: Parked In A Contractor/ Visitor Bay without a valid permitSite / Location: British EstatePostal Town / City: London (E3 4LU)Date and time of recorded contravention: 22nd November, 2025 at 22:17:11"The PCN: https://ibb.co/8D4jPXmTSignage: https://ibb.co/7J6nWHwRSome of the images taken by enforcement: https://ibb.co/sdtdPy1yhttps://ibb.co/Z6pmhWPBI've scribbled out the PCN number and VRM - but happy to provide these if needed? Apologies if I've missed anything - but will really appreciate any advice if this can be appealed. I don't know if this could be a factor - but the "visitor" marking on the bays are barely visible. Thanks in advance!
