Free Traffic Legal Advice

Yes, I was parked in the space where the red Prius is in that first link.

Yes that is essentially what has happened, is it worth an appeal or just pay the 65? I’m all for taking them all the way but no point really if it’s cut and dry. Cheers

Thanks for your considered reply. I am mindful to fight this and just pay the full amount if the tribunal make me. I think the risk vs reward is worth it. So just to be clear, I should make a full account of what happened to the council once they send out the next stage?

HI,

I received a PCN whilst working for a customer on Grosvenor avenue in Islington. The customer had paid for my parking via the RingGo app and has sent me the receipt. The parking code is 62020 on the Ring Go receipt. 

I appealed it and sent the receipt for the parking, the parking code 62020 the customer had used comes back as Grosvenor Avenue - Zone Q when you put that into Ring Go

They have declined my appeal and said that only applies to certain bays on the street. I have never had a problem using RingGo to park and used it while I lived in Walthamstow to cover guests parking for the CPZ. But I guess that was for a whole zone rather than one bay number.

I’ve swallowed a few and paid them but I feel like this is utterly ridiculous as the parking code comes back as Zone Q of which the customer has covered and the PCN says I was parked in Zone Q without a ticket.

I have until the 28th to pay the lower amount, is there any room for appeal?

What do you guys need me to attach (if anything) as I have the original ticket, the appeal response & the parking receipt.

Regards

Bumping this as I think I killed the thread initially yesterday when trying to upload an attachment and it wouldn’t load on my phone or computer.

Any prospect of success?

Hi

Long time reader of pepipoo and followed the instructions on there to migrate to the new website.

Last week I was doing a job for a customer and had arranged parking before starting as per usual, the customer assured me they had a permit for their residents parking.

To cut a long story short, the permit she gave me only allowed me to park on the estate (behind a locked gate) and I had parked on the road next to it.

The customer has given me £30 towards the ticket but obviously I would prefer us not having to pay as it was a genuine error on my behalf after being assured by the customer I could park there. I’m annoyed at myself because normally I’m on the ball with regards to parking rules etc and should have been more firm with the customer to open the gate as I half knew it sounded dodgy.

After looking at the PCN, is the lack of signature a get out? And on a broader point, if there’s no boundary signalling the end of the estate parking  and a controlled zone beginning, is that a mistake on their part?

Happy to pay if I’m bang to rights of course but happy to see what the experts say.

Have attached the PCN I came back to on my truck.

Location is Wilman Grove and the permit I had on display was for London Fields West Side

Cheers!
