PCN issued in Scotland

Hi

This is the appeal decision letter where it mentions IAS:

Re: CP46502446 issued at Edinburgh Castle Terrace on 24 October 2016 to vehicle with registration mark M*****DG

Thank you for your recent correspondence regarding the above notice number. We have considered the case carefully and have decided to reject your appeal on the following grounds;

The parking attendant observed and recorded that the vehicle was not parked wholly within the confines of a marked bay.

The Terms and Conditions of which our services are provided are clearly displayed on entrance and throughout our facilities, including the requirement for all motorists to park within the markings of a designated bay. We are confident that all signage and the PCN are compliant with all industry standards and to the British Parking Association's code of practice to which we subscribe.

You now have the following options;
Pay the Parking Charge Notice at the discounted amount of £50.00 within 14 days. Please note that after this time the Parking Charge Notice will increase to the full charge of £100.00.
Payment can be made:

* Online, by visiting ww.ncp.co.uk/pcn
* By sending a cheque or postal order, made payable to National Car Parks Ltd to: National Car Parks Ltd. Notice Processing, PO Box 839, Northampton, NN4 4AL.
* By Debit or Credit card (except American Express). Please call 0345 452 7780 and have your card details and the information held in this letter to hand.

If you believe this decision is incorrect, you are entitled to appeal to the Independent Appeals Service (IAS). In order to appeal the IAS will need your parking charge number, your vehicle registration and the date the charge was originally issued. Appeals must be submitted to the IAS within 21 days of the date of this letter. For further information please visit ww.theias.org.
If you decide to use the independent appeals service, the offer of a discount for early payment will be withdrawn, and the full parking charge will apply if your appeal is rejected. If you appeal and then subsequently pay the charge prior to that appeal being determined, then the appeal will be cancelled and you will not be given a further opportunity to contest the charge. Please note that the independent adjudicator is unable to cancel a charge on grounds of mitigation and the decision will be based on facts and evidence only.
The Independent Appeals Service ww.theIAS.or provides an Alternative Dispute Resolution scheme for disputes of this type. As you have complied with our internal appeals procedure you may use, and we will engage with, the IAS Standard Appeals Service providing you lodge an appeal to them within 21 days of this rejection.
If you choose to do nothing, we will seek to recover the monies owed to us via our debt recovery procedures and may proceed with Court action against you.

Yours sincerely,
Notice Processing Team
National Car Parks

Many Thanks

Jonathan
