PCN challenged BUT council tkn 2 Months to adv

Dear fellow forumites,

Desirous to know with any previous experiences or examples known whether to escalate a PCN issued by the LBRUT. I challenged it within a day of receiving it on our car, as we made the mistake of buying a ticket and not parking the car in precisely the area it was intended to cover.

So, 2 months and a week have now passed since my email via their email address to make a representation, and I get an email advising I need to pay 50% in the next 14 days or 100% thereafter.

I googled whether this long period of them responding was 'acceptable or not' and it;s just not very clear on whats OK and what's clearly NOT.

I can seek the adjudicator, and claim procedural impropriety ?

Can anyone advise if 2 months and a week could be considered as responding too late ?????

Thank you loads !!

Joanne x :T

    Ultimately the authority are giving you an opportunity to pay at reduced rate, if any concerns, go to TPT as it won't cost you anything.
