PCN Fines - SIP Car Parks - Wrong Location code on PayByPhone App

Hey

I have recently moved into a new block of flats and haven't purchased a parking spot yet. So when friends come over I've been telling them to use the local station parking.

On a few occasions i have payed for parking via the PayByPhone app, in which I have realised I entered the wrong parking code on sometimes. Was meant to be 59785 but ive been putting 8556 which is cause I have based of the description, I know this a stupid mistake and should of got the driver to confirm. I have been paying the parking for the times but just wrong location and have all the receipts too.


Location: 8556
Description: BASILDON STATION CAR PARK

Location: 59785
Description: STATION WAY

Although my friend has got 2x PCN fnes in the post and have 10 days to pay before the prices go up. I have also noticed that a couple more may still being processed in the same scenario.

Is there anything I can do, is it even worth an appeal?

Do the ANPR cameras operate all the time and is there a chance that the others may not get picked up?

I was going to call the company and see if there anything i can do or get any fines written off. But doubt they will have none of it.

The company is SIP Car Parks

Regards,

    The OP only made one post over a year ago and has not been back since.

    If you want help for your own case then you should read the sticky thread for NEWBIES then send the appeal template in blue you will find there, unaltered, from the keeper.

    Since railway byelaws may apply at the station car park, nothing should have happened if that was the case.
