Hello, help pleasseeee. Young couple spiralling…
My partner and I live in an apartment block where we pay for parking - in our space. In February, we came home to find someone in our space, and security said to park in guest bays and move it when we could. We did that, all fine. Took about a day for the other car to move.
In that time, we were issued a PCN because the NPC rules say you must be in your spot. However, our building management said they (NPC) had cancelled the PCN as it wasn’t our fault and we still pay to park in the car park. They emailed us saying they had been cancelled but didn’t provide any screenshots or anything.
Clearly, they didn’t. We received a £170 fine from DCBL, who obviously don’t accept appeals at this stage.
Obviously I’be gone straight to the building management, but I’m worried about this and court in the future, I’m guessing our building management can’t stop this fine? Any advice appreciated. Wondering whether to pay, and just deal later? Is that stupid? Probably.
