Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Re: RV07134388 - Ribble valley council. Edisford road car park, clitheroe
« on: March 06, 2025, 06:09:47 pm »
How did you pay? There is a large information board right next to the payment machine, which (at least according to the Google Earth picture) says that "A penalty charge may be issued in the following circumstances"...

"5. Parking in a disabled bay without displaying a valid disabled badge"

The Flame Pit / Re: Incorrect signage?
« on: January 30, 2025, 06:22:07 pm »
The sign (contract) says that to park (for free) you "must enter your vehicle registration using the terminal in store". No mention of receipts, or how you qualify as a "customer".
If they prevent you from entering your vehicle registration because you don't have a receipt, isn't that frustration of contract or something?

OP, the Parking Charge Number and Vehicle Registration number are both visible on your image uploads (see the black background "How to Pay" sections).

Best edit those n'all!

I received an initial letter saying I could pay £200 fine and take 6 points unless I had 6 or more points. A month or so late in August 2023 I got a follow up letter with the same offer saying that I had not responded to the first letter.

Did you reply to the "initial letter"
Did you reply to the "follow up letter"
Have you replied to ANY letter?
Can we see the text of your replies (if any)?

You really are making it difficult for us to understand the exact position that you are in!

Private parking tickets / Re: Horizon Notice at Bournemouth Hotel - Did not park
« on: August 23, 2024, 09:26:20 am »
FTLAUser1,

your registration is still visible on IMGUR - Horizon sneakily repeat your reg (and PCN number) on the black "How to Pay" line toward the bottom of the parking charge notice!

For reference, the money shot seems to start around 2 mins and 30 seconds into the video (a black Jaguar)!

Oops, beaten to it!

seagul,

if this street actually exists, can you provide a Google Street View link so that we can all have a look?

mmd,

howz about posting a copy of the PCN (with personal details removed) so that we can see _exactly_ what you have been accused of?

Also your response, and the council's rejection letter.

Private parking tickets / Re: Horizon Parking PCN - Failure to pay for full duration of stay - Excel Centre Overflow Car Park
« on: July 03, 2024, 01:51:34 pm »
OP,

the PCN number and car registration are still visible on both the front and back of the PCN.

Look at the "How to pay" sections with a black background (2 of).

I think that they sneakily do this on purpose, as quite a few people miss it (i almost did on my now cancelled Horizon PCN)!

Well a couple of hours ago i received a reply from Horizon Parking (after around 4 days)...

Dear Appellant,
 
Parking Charge Notice: XYZZY-PLUGH
 
Thank you for your recent correspondence regarding the above Parking Charge Notice, which we have reviewed.
 
I can confirm the Parking Charge Notice has now been cancelled and no further action will be taken in this matter.
 
Please note that once the Parking Charge Notice is cancelled the contact details are removed from the Parking Charge Notice and will not be retained for any purpose or shared with third parties.  We are, however, required to retain images and appeal correspondence for a period of 2 years by DVLA and the BPA and are not therefore able to delete these from our system. You can review our privacy policy at https://horizonparking.co.uk/privacy-policy/ or you can request that a copy is sent to you in the post by contacting us at the address below, if you have any queries regarding your data.
 
Yours sincerely,
Horizon Parking

...so many thanks to b789 and The Rookie for their replies to this thread, and to the others around the forum who suggested various PoFA appeal wordings.

I must admit that i am surprised how quickly Horizon backed down, especially as they must have spent a few quid requesting my details from the DVLA plus the cost of postage and printing. Gotta give them credit for not trying to drag things out!

Time for a celebratory beer ;)

b789, thanks for confirming that it is non-PoFA compliant - i'll use the standard text when i reply to them.

I wish that i had time to take it further, but at the moment i just want it out of the way. I am surprised that they have sent me a non-compliant letter, as other posts are suggesting that they are starting to "get it right" (although in my case, a double-dip should also get it cancelled if they get stroppy).
