Falmouth PCN

Posts: 197 Forumite
My wife recently received a PCN for allegedly overstaying in the Maritime Car Park but we paid for 2 hours and I am sure that the signs said an hour extra free was granted for holders of a displayed blue badge. We didnt think it would be necessary so didnt photograph the sign. She has now received a PCN which is timed within the 3 hours. We have appealed the PCN and awaitin g the outcome.
Is there anybody who lives in Falmouth, as opposed to us in Sussex, who could if needed photograph the sign for me and send it to my phone. Many thanks.

Who issued the parking charge?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.

If you search the forum for Falmouth, I am sure someone took a lot of photos a couple of months ago and put them on their thread.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

I have tried that but had no success in finding any photos, but then I am not very good at that sort of thing.0

I found the photos of the signs but am unable to see any reference to a yellow button which Premier say I should have pressed before inserting any money.
I have been advised to ignore this until I receive a notice prior to court, Is this sound advice?0 -
Doesn't seem right to me
The correct timeline is
Ntk issued to Keeper
Keeper appeals
Appeal is refused and a popla code provided
Take it to popla with a popla appeal
Claimant provides popla with an evidence pack , this is where you check the signs and payment machine info , photos etc
Appellant submits a rebuttal to popla
Await the popla outcome and decision
Court is a long way off at this early stage
This timeline has been in force for 7 years , so not new0 -
I believe the car park is owned by the Maritine Museum a number of people have contacted the Museum and asked them to get the PCN cancelled
I would hope the Museum would look at your request favourably especially as you were blue badge holders. I hope you still have proof that you paid for two hours. I would also contact your MP and see if he will offer any support.
Good luck.0
