    Come back at POPLA stage and search the forum first, for 'Tower Road POPLA Grace Observation'.

    Make sure you keep evidence of the cellulitis - were you previously unsteady on your feet or infirm (sorry to ask directly, but I am just thinking you might have been entitled to more time if you already had a long-term medical condition)?

    Also, well worth your writing to Steve Double MP for Newquay, explaining your accident and problems over this parking fisco.

    Have a read through the Newer Newquay Facebook group page where there are numerous posts about the damage being done to tourism in the area because of parking penalty regimes.

    When you write to the MP, tell him that this incident has put you off ever returning to Cornwall for a holiday.
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

    Hello Mushroom,

    I've just had a successful appeal here regarding a non-compliant NTK have a read here:

    https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/5668301

    Do you by any chance have your ticket still? Comparing this to the time stamps throws up some interesting reading with regards allowing grace periods and from what I've read on the forum coupled with your fall you have more than covered this!!

    Make sure you ask these guys exactly what you're going to submit. Don't forget, more often than not PE will just reject your appeal and send it to POPLA, which is where you really need to "over egg your pudding" to quote some others who are more in the know!!
  • Hi,

    I have received a fine from the same place for being in the car park for ten minutes. I didn't have the correct change so left to get money out I was in the car park for ten minutes? Can I be fined £100?

    No, you can't. PE hope you don't know that.

    Please read the NEWBIES thread and follow the same course as all the others who beat PE about Tower Road PCN rip-offs.

    It's all in the templates appeals in the NEWBIES thread and please don't ask where that is, bearing in mind the words below every post I make tell you! Look...tells you below, where to click and read.
