Ticket after parking changed from free to chargeable

MikeC31

I got a ticket after parking in an on street parking space in Northampton. The substance to my appeal is that they have only recently changed the bays from free to chargeable. When I parked it was at dusk and nothing seemed any different to the countless other times I've parked before. Only after returning to find the ticket affixed did I spot the subtle change to the signage. Does this sound like reasonable grounds for an appeal?

As we major on private parking tickets here, PePiPoo will be your best bet for council tickets. Register there (but please note that a hotmail address won't work - try using a gmail account instead if you do have trouble registering) and post a new thread; here's your link:

Have a read through some of the other threads there before you post your own to get the hang of what information they need from you in your opening post - but as a minimum you will need to post redacted photos/scans of all correspondence you've received from the council (both sides, if appropriate) as they need to see all the small print.

PePiPoo has an excellent success record in dealing with council tickets.
