Thanks, found it now.
Was mistakenly clicking on this (non working for me) link: http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/faq.php?faq=vb3_board_faq#faq_vb3_board_usage2 -
forum issues aside, you DO NOT FILL IN THE FINANCIAL FORMS

Going back to page 1.... If you stopped in the layby near the train station, it isn't a restricted zone and is outside VCS contraventions. I won this yesterday in court. Case dismissed. It will be evident in VSC's "schedule 2" when you receive their witness statement. Also not shown on their site map.
Also in their witness statement will be a paragraph stating that they have the responsibility to check that a parking offence had taken place prior to issuing a PCN.5 -
6 months since @purplepenny last visited the forum. It might be that they've paid OPS (hope not), but given the absence .......
Try a PM to them, that way, at least, they should receive an email to say you're trying to make contact.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.

Quick update to say that after I told them I wasn't driving and don't have a licence (truth!) the threatening letters eventually stopped :-)3
