Free Traffic Legal Advice

@stamfordman thanks for your message, I have appealed and waiting for date. as part of appeal I reiterated and provided evidence of medical condition and prescription

should I include the Ringo parking data too as part of evidence, the council provided this in one of the letter to me stating I had paid (£0) but it was 2-3 minutes after the PCN pictures were taken

@Incandescent rejected the appeal. Your experienced opinion, should I take this further given how unfair it is? Also it’s £0 for the hour. In response they say the conditions (pregnancy and medication) are not serious.

Background
Parked on Ilford lane, got out to sort parking (with child), felt unwell and walked into the shop to sit down get better reception as net wasn’t good either so I could promptly “pay” for the 1 hour which is FREE.

Came back to car and see a ticket, I began entering details on the parking app at 1:03 and the ticket was issued at 1pm, with photos taken at 12:59:40 seconds

I appealed explaining my condition, 15 weeks pregnant and on medication, feeling sick, went to shop thought WiFi would be better and easier quicker to sort the free 1 hour, highlighted only few minutes after parking.

Appeal rejected 15/01/2026 with evidence from ringo / pay app when I started the parking
Attached full letter in drive link

In between I sent a written letter sharing medical details but advised not to and wait for NTO

NTO received 18/02/2026

Any advice on how to tackle this moving forward, find it really upsetting that they can issue and don’t reverse after the information provided
