Parking Eye - Parking Ticket
3forholidays
Posts: 1,390 Forumite
My dad parked at Southampton and paid for parking as per the requested signage.
We noticed after the ticket printed out the machine that the registration number was wrong but we entered the correct one into the machine!
My dad (who is the registered keeper) has now received a parking charge notice but thankfully we have kept the ticket to prove that we paid.
How do we word the appeal?
Thanks

A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realise how blessed you are.

I have read the Newbie thread.
I know that we have to appeal to Parking Eye within 14 days, enclosing a copy of the proof of payment, and get a proof of posting certificate from the post office.
I am looking for advice on how to word the appeal as I'm unsure about this bit.A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realise how blessed you are.

use the template letter in post #1 of the newbies thread, add a point D about THE DRIVER and this ticket etc, adding a scan or copy of the ticket as proof
no naming the driver or implying who it was, appeal as RK
if they refuse the appeal, use the popla code and a PE popla appeal gleaned from post #3 of the newbies thread0 -
The appeal is there in the newbie thread. It is essentially a copy and paste. Add additional point that driver paid so there was no loss to the company. Send copy of ticket. I assume it is only out by one digit/letter. (not a totally different reg).Newbie thread: go to the top of this page and find these words: Main site > MoneySavingExpert.com Forums > Household & Travel > Motoring > Parking Tickets, Fines & Parking.

The registration that came out on the ticket was completely different to what was put into the machine! I was standing beside my dad when he put the car reg in and know that he typed it in correctly.A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realise how blessed you are.

irrelevant now as they have sent you an invoice for this, so you need to appeal it in the manner described above
PE may accept the mitigation, but popla wont0 -
Will send a letter to Parking Eye - glad I decided to keep the ticket now!
Thanks for the advice. I'll come back & let you know the outcome.A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realise how blessed you are.
