UKPC ticket illegible

bernieA

Thanks for all your help guys. My parking charge has been cancelled.

I did appeal to landowners but got no reply.

I believe I got off, mainly, due to the faulty printed ticket but there were a number of details I was able to attack with your help.

"we have decided in this instance, due to an administrative error, that the parking charge will be cancelled"

Once again, Thanks to you all.

Search the forum for 'UKPC goodwill' to see that letter again and again (they know when they are beaten and an 'admin error' is a good excuse...again and again!).

Goodwill is another way of saying "Oh bu**er, this is a forum assisted appeal and we will lose so let's just cancel now and save ourselves some money. Plenty more gullible fish in the sea."

When they do send the NtK, it may well talk about POFA. However, you never got a Notice to Driver (the illegible piece of paper you got is not an NtD as it seems it is missing most of the crucial information). Therefore the NtK will be out of time, and so no Keeper Liability. What a shame.

I love it, hoist by their own petard. Should this same argument not be used for all non-compliant, ( and missing), windscreen tickets. After all, we only have the word of the PPC that a notice was put on the windscreen. I read somewhere that it is a common dodge for parking attendants to place a ticket on the window, photograph the ticket, and remove it.
