PCN passed to DCA but no notice to me as I have moved

Hi,

I received an initial PCN at an old address in December 2013, which I contested as I was loading my car (with local store goods) in a designated loading bay. I received nothing back from the council (so assumed the matter closed) and have since moved home and been in my new address for over 1 year.

I received a letter from a DCA yesterday, chasing me for £180 for the unpaid Council PCN?!

I am hoping someone will be able to guide me with some advice as to how I can proceed from this situation?

Thanks in advance.

    This site is primarily aimed at parking on private land.

    Pepipoo.com are the experts on Council tickets so you are probably better off posting your query on there.

    Good luck.
