PCN where I have no excuse
We've received a PCN from National Parking Enforcement Ltd for a car park owned by LCP. My only defence is that we thought it was local authority owned and that parking charges were suspended due to covid. It isn't, they weren't. The PCN is for 9 minutes. My thoughts are that the best way to fight it is to send a letter…

Court Case Discontinued - Thank you.
I’ve been following this forum since May 2019 after receiving a UKCPM ticket in Feb last year. I’ve never posted before but all of the advice and information on the forum has been invaluable for me. UKCPM and Gladstone’s finally folded 3 days before the hearing at the local County Court. Thank you. 🙏🏻

Hi all, Background: In May 2020, my initial mortgage rate was ending so I looked to remortgage. The broker found that I had a CCJ on my credit file, dating back to June 2019 that I was unaware of.
