Hadn't updated registration number on app

I have just received a parking fine from parkingeye from when I was parked at local hospital for an appointment. I paid the correct amount on the paybyphone app but hadn't updated my car registration number on the app when I bought my car a couple of months ago.
Do I have a case? Or do I just pay?

"minor typing error ,,,,,,,,,,, ok a bloody major one
ok the BPA have suggested that situations like this should be taken into account
i wonder if this qualifies as a £20 typo0 -
The case is that this is a breach of these regs, because this was a distance contract but without the correct information supplied by the provider in a transparent manner, and without making it clear and obvious that you MUST override any stored data:
https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2013/3134/contents/made
The burden is not upon you to ensure old data is overridden - that is unfair.
However, send an appeal that is NOT the template from the NEWBIES thread, pointing out the app failed to make this clear, and complain to PALS of course - but anyone who has read the NEWBIES THREAD first, knows that is always 'PLAN A'.
Was it a Golden ticket? As per the example shown in post #3 of the NEWBIES?PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

tbh I'm not actually sure if it's a 'golden ticket'. I have attached a photo of the back of the PCN I have received in the post for conparison

Let's see the front - suitably redacted, please leave all dates showing - but that reverse side looks extremely promising on the Golden Ticket front.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. .

So date of issue is Saturday 5th September and deemed to have been received two working days later, which would be Tuesday 8th. This is day 15 after the parking event and therefore, the NTK fails to comply with POFA.2

ah right, i thought it only had to be issued within 14 days not received. thanks for clearing that upCastle said:So date of issue is Saturday 5th September and deemed to have been received two working days later, which would be Tuesday 8th.

As Golden as they come. Proceed via the NEWBIES FAQ sticky, first post, particularly noting the details pertaining to a PE Golden Ticket. Do not reveal the driver's identity - PE may put a hold on your appeal to come fishing for this, ignore then await their decision on your initial appeal. They've missed the PoFA deadline by a day in order to hold the keeper liable - oops.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum.

Bingo!
I am glad I asked but I wasn't really expecting that! A P/Eye PCN with no POFA wording because they know it was likely to arrive late.
PERFECT FOR YOU.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
