Just wait for the notice to keeper to arrive within days 29-56 from parking. Unless you aren't the keeper of the vehicle ??
The blue badge scheme doesn't even apply on private land, it being out of date is not really relevant, does your disability go when it expires?When posting a parking issue on MSE do not reveal any information that may enable PPCs to identify you. They DO monitor the forum.

Any hope? With a private parking 'ticket' always! :T
The date on your Blue Badge is none of their business (the Council BB scheme isn't relevant to them) and doesn't suddenly mean you aren't disabled any more.
As advised, wait for the Notice to Keeper to arrive in November or December and then - if this was in England or Wales - be ready to send a challenge saying that the driver was seen by the operative and clearly stated to him that the driver is still disabled (despite any date on a badge). State that to pursue the matter would be a breach of the Equality Act 2010 because a disabled bay is a 'reasonable adjustment' which is there by virtue of the Act, for disabled people, not for 'people with a Blue Badge'.
Did CMS give you a ticket at all?
Was this in England/Wales?
Either way, WAIT for the postal notice as long as you are the registered keeper. Reply here when it arrives and we can help you appeal it and win.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

trubster has been a fantastic help in the matter. Feel free to send me aPM if you need any details, although you're probably far better asking the experts on here.0 -

Yes, if a Notice To Driver is not left on the car or handed to the driver then a Notice To Keeper must be delivered within fourteen days counting the day after the 'crime' as Day 1. That's delivered not posted or dated. Assuming that your post on 12th October was the date of the 'crime' you should have received the NTK not later than 27th October i.e. today. An NTK posted by first class post is deemed delivered two working days later (unless proved otherwise) so your NTK would have to be delivered on the 25th October (last working day before 25th) which means posted on 23rd October. It looks like you are in the clear but watch out as PPCs send NTKs out late but still claim that the keeper is liable for the charge. They may also ante-date the NTK & try & claim that it must have been delayed in the post.skiptalker wrote: »nothing heard yet is there a timescale 14 days?0 -
For clarity on receiving the Notice to Keeper
1) if it's a ticket through the post - 14 days
2) if it's a ticket on the car - 29-56 daysWhen posting a parking issue on MSE do not reveal any information that may enable PPCs to identify you. They DO monitor the forum.

They have until December judging by your OP , count 56 days from the ticket, then they on that part comply with pofa 2012, but they could contact you beyond that, little things like the law doesn't matter to themWhen posting a parking issue on MSE do not reveal any information that may enable PPCs to identify you.
