Parking tickets, fines & parking

The driver of my vehicle forgot to pay the fee at the rapid drop off area at East Midlands airport. I had the PCN through the post however it got misplaced and now I have missed the 28 day appeals deadline (by around 14 days). I can no longer appeal through their portal. Is it still possible to send over the template to…

Evening all, Another victim of a UKCPS No stopping charge at Leeds station here. I've submitted my appeal, which felt strong given that the notice landed outside of the PofA timescales. Timeline copied from my appeal below:The alleged event occurred on 27 August 2025. The NTK was dated 9 September 2025 (day 13). The…

Hi all, I’ve recently received a County Court parking claim from Smart Parking / DCB Legal relating to a car park visit from four years ago. AoS has already been filed with intention to defend in full. Important background: I moved house before the relevant period when it happened and unfortunately my V5C was not updated…

Hi everyone, I’d really appreciate some advice before I decide whether to risk the discounted penalty. I received an Enfield Council PCN (Code 16) for parking in Tanners End Lane (SEED CPZ) on 17 June 2026. I’m not disputing that there was an event on that day. My argument is that I genuinely tried to comply with the…

Parking fine- Saba I have read all the info/templates etc to fight a parking fine. I am just trying to find out if I have incriminated myself or not. Context: I received a parking fine at Ninewells Hospital Dundee from Saba . I thought I was in a parking space, apparently not; I was not 'fully' in one. I appealed, it was…

My wife got a parking charge in 2023 from Apcoa for parking without payment in a railway car park. (Bromley, UK) I told her not to pay it, just run down the clock for 6 months via the usual method of appeal, then popla, etc as a Railway Byelaw ticket (as i understand it) cant be pursued after 6 months. Even if it could, it…

Hi all, Would appreciate some advice. i received a £100 parking ticket from Parking Eye for being in a store car park for 7 minutes while the store was closed. The context is that I thought the store was open until 10pm when it in fact closed at 8. The 7 mins elapsed while I drove in, parked, walked to to the door to check…

Hi all, I've received a Claim form for a parking charge from December 2021 for an overstay of free time on a B&M car park, I knew nothing about this fine until now, and would assume the fine was sent to a previous address. How do i go about completing these forms and not paying the amount claimed with court fees of total…

So I am helping a couple of people who have both received PCNs from Parkfair for parking in disabled bays at Grantham station. These used to be free but are now run by LNER, there are no signs near the bays about paying just about displaying a BB. The payment maching is a long way from the disabled bays and not obvious to…

As the keeper, I have recieved the letter attached. It’s for a “failed to obtain permit in accordance with the notified terms” - I.e. one assumes registration number not recorded properly on a tablet - on 29 May. I received it this Saturday (20th) June, well after 14 days, although the letter says it was issued 2nd June.…

Hi all – I've read the NEWBIES thread and the main surprise-CCJ threads. My case has a couple of twists so I'd be grateful for guidance. Two CCJs, ~£267 each, both Smart Parking, both for the same car park on the same day in 2022. Both: claim issued 11 May 2026, served 16 May, judgment 5 June → so 4 July is the 30-day…

Hi there folks, I have received a parking charge Notice to Keeper from UKPC, the breach is stated as being: "Not parked correctly within the markings of the bay or space" I have already had the initial appeal rejected, (seems commonplace) I appealed as the keeper of the vehicle and the basis of my appeal was the inadequate…

Hi, I’ve received a CCJ claim letter dated 15/08/2025 for a Tesco parking breach. The situation was that I parked in a disabled spot and on the first letter I received it was for the correct Tesco store. However, every letter since and also on this claim letter they’ve kept stating that the breach of parking was at another…

Hi all Long time stalking but have not posted anything for a long time, and now looking for a little bit of guidance dealing with this issue. I now have to deal with Group Nexus for my partner, who as the registered keeper received a invoice for a over stay in a retail car park by 22min 03s. The date of the event was…

I got this ticket, issued by ParkWatch for parking in a disabled bay at one stop shopping Centre in Bham, however looking at the photos you can see that I displayed my badge. Ive already appealed and they've reduced it to £20. Is it actually about the car being out of the bay a bit? otherwise I cant understand why theyre…

Hi everyone, I have received a PCN after parking in West Bromwich, the PCN is issued by EuroParkingServices but there were several parking locations there and I parked on one managed by Phoenix Parking. I had paid to park with YourParkingSpace at a location called Benefits Agency, 416 High Street West Bromwich. According…

Firstly I apologise for creating a new thread about this, however I have a question regarding the newbies' thread advice: According to the Newbies thread my first action should be to call the retail company and complain about the fact that I've received a parking charge notice demanding £60.00 for parking in one of their…

Hello, I'd be grateful for a check before I file. I'm posting on behalf of a family member (the named Defendant), and I'll be putting up a second, separate parking claim shortly. Apologies in advance for two threads close together. I've used the Chan & Akande "no breach specified" version because the Particulars state no…

Hello, Newbie here and am looking for confirmation of my understanding of the appeals process. I parked in a Euro car park and I accidentally paid for the wrong car (my wife's car instead of my own!). I have the receipt to support this. The offence was caught via ANPR and I got the fine through the post a week ago. I have…

Hi all, Posting on behalf of my father (the registered keeper), with his written authority. I've read the NEWBIES thread, including the note that Smart Parking often don't use proper POFA wording. Redacted NtK images attached. Facts: Operator: Smart Parking (IPC), ANPR, retail park (Ystwyth Retail Park, Aberystwyth)…
