Parking Charge Notice Via ANPR

Posts: 118 Forumite


Can someone help me please I'm struggling to find the best route to appeal against a parking notice - Parking without payment.
The background is I drop my daughter at the train station a few times a week and the station car park allows a 10 minute free drop off. I'm quickly in and out. The notice is saying I entered the car park at 8.45am (correct ) and left at 10.45 (incorrect). The ANPR photo is showing my car coming in with the reg plate showing however the exit photo has no number plate visible it's very blurry.
The car park is pay and display and the notice is from VSCL. I have read the newbie board but still unsure what method I use to appeal against this. Can someone help me please.

What was the ‘contravention’ described in the NtK?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. .

Do you now need to get a ticket for your 10 minute free drop-off? Have they changed the conditions thereof late?
Is the car park station property (or a private one located close by)?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. .

The rule is still the same for drop off/pick up no ticket is required There are no entry or exit barriers. It's a private car park not owned by the station.0

Date of event and date you received the NTK? I don't believe VCS are POFA compliant any way...
So can you edit your OP to state ' the driver ' please.
And you will appeal as the RK.0 -
You need to find out who the car park owner is and complain to them. Get them to tell VCS to cancel the ticket.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. .

Date was 23.11.2017 and letter received on 01.12.2017
On the letter they mentioned they are member of IPC but no mention of POFA.

Do you have any evidence of where you then went at 9 o'clock? Eg a colleague who can confirm you were sat at your desk? Emails/text messages which clearly infer or say where you were? Bank entries showing you at a cashpoint or having a coffee miles away?Although a practising Solicitor, my posts here are NOT legal advice, but are personal opinion based on limited facts provided anonymously by forum users.
