PCN at Freeport Braintree
I was issued a PCN at Freeport Braintree for overstaying by half an hour. Firstly, they sent the letter to my old address - my car hasn't been registered at that address for well over 6 months so that was odd? Also, by the time the letter was redirected I am over the 14 day period for a reduced payment so I now have to pay…

Yesterday around noon I needed to park in a station car park run by NCP. It's a very long linear site and according to their information there are 466 spaces, 30 of which are premier bays (located mainly adjacent to the station entrance) and 4 disabled bays. I counted only 3, all of which were in use, whereas 8 premier…

Euro Car Parks - PCN. What next? (WON!)
Hi Guys. Right I'm a bit confused as what steps to take next as this isn't a standard appeal, win situation. 17/10/13 - I overstayed the free parking in a carpark monitored by ECP by 14 minutes. 1/11/13 - PCN sent to the lease manager of the car and passed on to me.

Aldi asked to refund Parking Eye tickets in Mold
An interesting one, I'm pretty certain that they will do nothing about this, and will probably ignore the furore and down right unlawful actions by themselves and probably Parking Eye http://tinypic.com/r/15s1sag/8

POPLA appeal won
Hi all. I thought I'd let you know that I've just received the result of my appeal to POPLA against a Parking Eye "fine". It seems that Parking Eye submitted no evidence, so the assessor had no option other than to allow the appeal. Hopefully, PE will now cancel the PCN as requested by the assessor. Many thanks to those in…

Notice to OWNER instead of Keeper? And other differences
Guys Received a PCN from Smart parking and as suggested in the threads have waited until the NTK to arrive but it says Notice to Owner. I have not edited the template letter to say owner so the letter maintains that I am the keeper. I have printed out this appeal letter ready to send just wanted to make sure there are no…

PCN issued at public car park
Hello I came back to my car after a day at work to find a PCN stuck under my wiper. Firstly I wondered why I had received this as I had paid £3 for parking over two hours (£2.80 but no change) as that is what I have paid when I parked there the previous month. It turns out that the parking charges had gone up two weeks ago…
